2026 Fantasy Baseball Player Profile

Brady Singer’s 2025 season was a successful "workhorse" debut in Cincinnati, proving to be the most durable arm in a rotation often hit by the injury bug. Acquired from the Royals in late 2024, Singer led the Reds in starts (32), wins (14), and innings pitched (169.2), finishing with a 4.03 ERA and 1.24 WHIP. While his first half was inconsistent—headlined by a mid-season ERA near 5.00—he finished with a flourish, posting a 2.81 ERA over his final 12 starts. He famously debuted for the Reds by tossing seven scoreless, one-hit innings, becoming the first pitcher in franchise history since Tom Seaver to record a scoreless start of that length in his team debut.

Entering 2026, the 29-year-old is the highest-paid player on the Reds' roster after securing a $12.75 million, one-year contract in his final year of arbitration. Despite his status as the rotation's most experienced "innings eater," Singer has been a frequent subject of trade rumors this spring. With the emergence of high-upside youngsters like Chase Burns and Rhett Lowder, the budget-conscious Reds may consider moving Singer’s expiring contract for an impact bat. For now, however, he is locked in as the No. 3 or 4 starter behind Hunter Greene and Andrew Abbott, serving as a vital veteran presence for Terry Francona’s pitching staff.

For fantasy managers, Singer is a reliable, high-floor option with an ADP around 296.
