The chances seemed remote that Cincinnati Reds<\/a> outfielder Tyler Callihan would recover in time to take the field again in 2025, but the possibility existed. Now, a further surgery appears to have likely ended his 2025 on the field.<\/p>\n

Reds manager Terry Francona on Thursday, July 10, told reporters Callihan had wrist surgery recently for an ailing wrist. It wasn’t clear if the ailment was pre-existing or the result of Callihan’s crash into the wall in foul territory at Atlanta’s Truist Park on May 5.<\/p>\n

That wall-collision while in pursuit of \u2212 and nearly successfully completing \u2212 a catch for an out resulted in multiple fractures in the 24-year-old Callihan’s left arm required surgery shortly after<\/a> the on-field incident.<\/p>\n

“The wrist was hurting so we sent him up to New York,” Francona said. “The hard part they were really having was figuring out, because he hit the wall, if it was preexisting… There was a chance he could have come back this year. It was maybe a longer shot but there was a chance, and if he had this done, it probably eliminates him coming back, but you always give the player the option and I think he was not comfortable trying to put it off.”<\/p>\n

Callihan’s injury at Truist Park occurred five days after his MLB debut.<\/p>\n

At one point this spring, Callihan had returned to Great American Ball Park during his recovery process. Francona called his progress up to that point “amazing.”<\/p>\n

“There’s some other things that he’s gonna work through,” Francona said on June 18<\/a>. “We’ll get to that, I think, here in the near future but he’s got some decisions to make on how to go with this, so when the time’s right, we’ll talk about it.”<\/p>\n

The Callihan injury was one of the most poignant moments of the 2025 season to-date. Teammates were highly complimentary of Callihan’s effort on the play for the greater good.<\/p>\n

Brady Singer, the Reds’ starting pitcher in the game May 5, called the injury “gruesome”<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel bad for him. I can\u2019t thank him enough for the effort,” Singer said after the May 5 game. “I take guys like that on the field every single day. Fighting for the ball, wanting to make that play speaks volumes about him. I hope he\u2019s OK.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The chances seemed remote that Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Callihan would recover in time to take the field…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":56484,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[591,41392,41393,10595,5048,17745,1266,1571,5382,942,50,450,950,10596,15164,62,1458,17744,6373,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-56483","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mlb","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-brady","10":"tag-brady-singer","11":"tag-cincinnati","12":"tag-cincinnati-reds","13":"tag-francona","14":"tag-mlb","15":"tag-national","16":"tag-national-sports","17":"tag-neutral","18":"tag-news","19":"tag-overall","20":"tag-overall-neutral","21":"tag-reds","22":"tag-singer","23":"tag-sports","24":"tag-sports-news","25":"tag-terry","26":"tag-terry-francona","27":"tag-united-states","28":"tag-unitedstates","29":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114833888583315306","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56483","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56483"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56483\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56484"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56483"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56483"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56483"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
