Spencer Steer Out Indefinitely With Wrist Tear

The Reds have placed Spencer Steer on the 10-day IL after he was diagnosed with a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his right wrist. Steer is expected to miss significant time and will wear a splint for the next two weeks. The injury is a major blow to Cincinnati's trade deadline strategy, as the versatile infielder was on track for his fourth consecutive 20-homer season. His absence forces the team to re-evaluate their roster trajectory for the remainder of the season.
