Newman (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Louisville.

EDGE Analysis

On the shelf since Aug. 19 because of a left oblique strain, Newman looks poised to return to the Reds' active roster around the end of this week. The 30-year-old infielder was slashing .253/.311/.364 with three homers and eight steals through 74 games for Cincinnati prior to the injury.

The Reds placed Newman on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a left oblique strain (retroactive to Aug. 16).

EDGE Analysis

Newman was previously on the injured list with an illness in late July, and now an oblique injury will force him out for at least another week. Top prospect Noelvi Marte was recalled from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move.

Newman started at second base and went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Monday's 5-2 win over Miami.

EDGE Analysis

Newman swiped second base in the fourth inning but was stranded there. It was his eighth steal in 70 games. He plays a part-time role for the Reds but has experienced a slight uptick in opportunities with Jonathan India (foot) on the injured list. India had been expected to be activated Tuesday, but the Reds pushed his return back to Friday.

Newman is starting at second base and batting seventh in Monday's contest versus the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Eury Perez is taking the ball for Miami, marking the first time since June 18 that Newman has been in the lineup against a right-hander. Matt McLain is receiving a day off.

Newman served as a pinch hitter and knocked in a run with a sacrifice fly in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Newman pinch hit for Jake Fraley against left-hander Caleb Ferguson and knocked in Elly De La Cruz for the first Cincinnati run. Newman was activated off the injured list last Monday but hadn't appeared in a game since. He's normally in the lineup against southpaws, but the Reds haven't seen a lefty starter since he rejoined the active roster.

Newman (illness) was activated from the 10-day injured list Monday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Newman missed the minimum 10 days due to a bout with gastritis. He'll go back to playing regularly against left-handed pitching.

Newman was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with gastritis.

EDGE Analysis

The move was retroactive to Friday, so Newman will be eligible for activation on July 24, and he should be ready to go by then or shortly after. Newman has been a useful short-side platoon guy this season with a .901 OPS versus lefties.

Newman is starting at first base and batting leadoff Tuesday against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

With the Nats throwing left-hander Patrick Corbin, Newman will be at the top of the order while TJ Friedl slides down to the No. 8 spot. Joey Votto is getting the day off.

Newman went 0-for-1 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 7-6 loss to Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Newman has gotten on base safely in all but one of his last seven games, and he's added two steals and four RBI in that span. The infielder's playing time is on the decline with the Reds' infield at full health, and he'll likely be confined to a short-side platoon role going forward. Newman has a .266/.325/.380 slash line with three home runs, 26 RBI, 22 runs scored and six steals through 206 plate appearances this season.

Newman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Though Newman started in five of the Reds' last seven games, he'll likely be limited to a short-side platoon role moving forward. With Joey Votto's recent return from the 60-day injured list, the Cincinnati infield is looking more crowded these days, and Newman will find himself as the odd man out more often than not.
