Cincinnati Reds Bolster Outfield, Trade for San Francisco Giants Outfielder Austin Slater

CINCINNATI — The Reds' outfield got a boost on early Monday morning after the team finalized a trade for outfielder Austin Slater.

Cincinnati sent Alex Young to the San Francisco Giants in exchange for Slater and cash considerations. Slater, 31, has experience at multiple outfield spots and first base. He's posted a .200/.330/.244 slash line this season with one home run and nine RBI. The veteran gives Reds manager David Bell another experienced option to rely on, which makes sense given all of the injuries Cincinnati has dealt with this season. They made the move following the news that Nick Martini could miss significant time with a thumb injury.Postgame Takeaways: Cincinnati Reds fall to Cleveland Guardians 5-3Watch: 16 Years Ago: Ken Griffey Jr. Hits Home Run No.
