HOUSTON — The Cincinnati Reds acquired outfielder/first baseman Connor Joe from the San Diego Padres on Friday for minor league right-hander Andrew Moore and cash.
The 32-year-old Joe was hitless in nine at-bats over seven games for the Padres this season while spending most of the year with Triple-A El Paso. He signed a one-year, $1 million contract with San Diego in February.
Joe is a career .241 hitter over six seasons with San Francisco, Colorado, Pittsburgh and San Diego.
Moore has a 4.15 ERA in 8⅔ innings with Double-A Chattanooga this season. The Reds acquired him from Seattle as part of the package for Luis Castillo in 2022.
To make room on the 40-man roster, the Reds transferred outfielder Tyler Callihan to the 60-day injured list. He’s expected to miss at least two months after having surgery to repair a broken left forearm Tuesday.
Cincinnati announced the moves during Friday night’s game at Houston.
