The Cincinnati Reds have made their move—top infield prospect Noelvi Marte has officially been called up to replace injured standout Matt McLain, marking what many are calling a blockbuster roster shake-up.
With McLain placed on the 10-day injured list due to a left hamstring strain, the Reds wasted no time tapping into their farm system for impact. Marte, who was scorching hot in Triple-A with a .353 average, now gets the opportunity to make his mark in the big leagues and potentially secure a long-term role.
Manager Terry Francona praised the 23-year-old’s growth, saying, “Noelvi’s earned this. He’s come back stronger, more focused, and ready to compete.”
The Reds are hoping Marte’s promotion not only fills the void but ignites the offense—and maybe even reshapes the infield picture for good.
