Cincinnati Reds Confirm to Reunite With Familiar Face

Former Cincinnati Reds pitcher Buck Farmer might be signing with the Cincinnati Reds, according to a story on his wife’s Instagram.

His wife shared a picture of Cincinnati Reds baggage and said, “Third time’s a charm, right?”

The Atlanta Braves signed Farmer to a minor league contract in February, but after struggling with their Triple-A team, they released him in mid-April.

 

Cincinnati Reds pitcher Buck Farmer (46) throws a pitch in the sixth inning of the MLB Interleague game between the Cincinnati Reds and the Oakland Athletics at Great American Ball Park in downtown Cincinnati on Tuesday, Aug. 27, 2024. The Oakland Athletics won 5-4.

 

Farmer played for the Reds from 2022 to 2024, making 176 appearances with a 3.68 ERA. His best season came with Cincinnati in 2024, where he posted a 3.04 ERA over 61 games.

When Farmer was let go in April, I speculated that a potential reunion with the Reds could be on the horizon, and it wouldn’t have surprised me if that happened.

The Cincinnati bullpen has thrown a lot of innings lately and you can simply never have too much bullpen depth.
