5 Reds Players Not Coming Back

 

The Reds will lose familiar faces in 2027, some of the longest tenured and biggest names.

These are the 5 Reds who won't be back: TJ Friedl, Pierce Johnson, Eugenio Suárez, Brock Burke, and Tyler Stephenson.

We ranked them live and took fan votes in the comments, and added one fan-voted player at the end.

The Reds will lose familiar faces in 2027, some of the longest tenured and biggest names.

All comments during the live episode show behind the host on set! TJ Friedl is a minor-league free agent. He has history and character with the Reds, but he could show those things somewhere else and come back later.

Pierce Johnson was fine but nothing more.

Eugenio Suárez brought power the Reds did not need. The reunion was nice, but it was one of those where you are happy you saw your ex and you want her to be happy, and you also know you broke up for a reason.

Brock Burke may have priced himself out of a return, but he is worth watching in the scramble right after the lockout.

Tyler Stephenson could come back on a short-term deal if the lockout creates a mad scramble. Familiarity matters for a catcher.

Longtime Reds beat writer C. Trent Rosecrans Mason Estep of RedsDaily.com breaks down and explains the Reds' expected 2027 roster changes in today's episode.
