Top Vladimir Gutierrez News

  • Marlins' Vladimir Gutierrez: Nets NRI deal with Miami

    Gutierrez signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Francys Romero of MLB.com reports.

    Gutierrez posted a 5.44 ERA over 32 appearances (30 starts) for the Reds from 2021-22. The 28-year-old threw just 6.1 rehab innings in 2023 and 36.2 frames in 2022 due to Tommy John surgery and subsequent setbacks, but he's healthy now and gives Miami a solid depth option.

  • Vladimir Gutierrez: Holds workout for teams

    Gutierrez held a private workout for interested clubs Friday in Miami, Francys Romero of MLB.com reports.

    It's not clear which teams specifically were in attendance. Gutierrez, 28, threw just 6.1 rehab innings in 2023 and 36.2 frames in 2022 due to elbow issues but is healthy now and could make for a decent rotation depth piece.

  • Vladimir Gutierrez: Elects free agency

    Gutierrez elected free agency Thursday.

    Gutierrez had been removed from the Reds' 40-man roster and has opted to test out free agency rather than accept an outright assignment. He didn't pitch at the major-league level in 2023 after having a late-season setback from Tommy John surgery. It's unclear what Gutierrez's current health status is.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Jettisoned from 40-man roster

    Gutierrez (elbow) cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

    Gutierrez had a setback in August as he was making his way back from Tommy John surgery and it's not clear what his current health situation is. The Reds felt his 40-man roster spot was better used on someone else.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: May be nursing injury

    The Reds announced Wednesday that Gutierrez (elbow) has been pulled from his rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville.

    Gutierrez had been tracking toward a return from the 60-day injured list next weekend, but the Reds' decision to bring him back from the rehab assignment a week and a half early seemingly indicates that he suffered a setback in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. According to MLB.com, Gutierrez's fastball had hovered between 91 and 93 miles per hour in his first two rehab appearances with Louisville, but his average velocity dropped down to 90.3 mph during his most recent outing this past Saturday, when he was tagged for four earned runs on two hits and two walks over 1.1 innings. Gutierrez will presumably be evaluated by the Reds' team doctors before an update is provided on his next steps.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Advances rehab to Triple-A

    Gutierrez (elbow) moved his rehab assignment to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, striking out two and walking two over two no-hit scoreless innings.

    Gutierrez began his rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on July 28 but was cleared to join the Reds' top affiliate after a pair of one-inning scoreless appearances. The Reds are tentatively targeting Aug. 25 for Gutierrez's return from the 60-day injured list, with manager David Bell telling Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer that the right-hander will work out of the bullpen once activated.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Cleared for rehab assignment

    Gutierrez (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with the Reds' Arizona Complex League affiliate Friday.

    Gutierrez is in the final stages of his recovery from Tommy John surgery and is finally ready to test things out in game action. While he could return to starting in 2024, Gutierrez will be prepped as a reliever for the rest of 2023.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Throws simulated game

    Gutierrez (elbow ) threw a simulated game at the Reds' spring training complex in Arizona on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

    The right-hander will begin a rehab assignment with the Reds' Arizona Complex League affiliate late this week. Coming back from last July's Tommy John surgery, Gutierrez is being prepped to return as a reliever but could go back to starting in 2024.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Month away from facing hitters

    Gutierrez (elbow) is tentatively scheduled to resume facing hitters in live batting practice July 25, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Gutierrez is working his way back from Tommy John surgery, a procedure he underwent July 20, 2022. The fact that the Reds have already identified a date a month down the road for when Gutierrez might face hitters suggests he's already resumed a throwing program, though it's unclear whether he's currently throwing bullpen sessions or if he remains limited to playing catch off flat ground. Cincinnati is hoping that Gutierrez will be ready to start a minor-league rehab assignment in the first week of August before potentially joining the big-league bullpen later that month or sometime in September.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Moves to IL

    The Reds placed Gutierrez (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Wednesday, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    The move is simply a procedural one to clear a 40-man roster spot, as Gutierrez underwent Tommy John surgery last July and will miss most, if not all, of 2023. If he does return, it would likely be for just a couple of appearances in September.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Undergoes Tommy John surgery

    Gutierrez (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Wednesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Gutierrez officially underwent surgery to correct the first-degree UCL strain he suffered in June and will now set his sights on potentially returning late next season. The right-hander will finish his 2022 campaign with a 7.61 ERA, 1.91 WHIP and 29 strikeouts over 36.2 innings in 10 appearances, including eight starts.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Tommy John surgery on tap

    Gutierrez (elbow) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery later this month, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Gutierrez, the Reds and the team's medical staff made the collective decision to have the right-hander go under the knife after he suffered a setback with his strained elbow during a live batting practice session Tuesday. Based on the timing of his upcoming surgery, Gutierrez will miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign and likely the majority of the 2023 season while recovering from the procedure. He'll become the third Reds pitcher to require Tommy John in the last calendar year, joining Tejay Antone and Justin Wilson.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Tosses live bullpen session

    Gutierrez (elbow) completed a live batting practice session Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Before he was placed on the 15-day injured list just over a month ago with a first-degree right elbow strain, Gutierrez had been working out of the bullpen. The Reds aren't yet decided on what kind of role Gutierrez will handle once he's back to full strength, as the team will have him build up to three innings in his throwing progression before determining whether he'll return from the IL as a reliever or starter. Since he still has yet to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment, Gutierrez isn't on track to return until after the All-Star break.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Headed to 60-day IL

    Reds manager David Bell said Gutierrez (elbow) suffered a setback during the final pitch of his live batting practice session Tuesday and will be transferred from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    The transaction will open up a spot on the 40-man roster, which the Reds will likely use when they presumably call up another pitcher from the minors for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader with the Pirates. As a result of the move, Gutierrez won't be eligible for activation until the first week of August, though it's unclear if he'll be ready to go by then.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Slated to throw live BP

    Gutierrez (elbow) will throw live batting practice Friday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Gutierrez progressed to mound work last week, and he's now been cleared to face live hitters. After being shut down with a first-degree UCL strain in his right elbow earlier in June, the 26-year-old has recently made encouraging progress in his recovery.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Nearing bullpen session

    Gutierrez (elbow) will throw a bullpen session this week, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Gutierrez was shut down for two weeks in early June after being diagnosed with a first-degree UCL strain in his right elbow. That time period has now expired, and it looks like he's ready for the next step, more or less on schedule.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Avoids worst-case outcome

    Gutierrez will be shut down for two weeks with a first-degree UCL strain but has avoided a more serious injury, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Gutierrez hit the injured list Sunday with what was originally called right forearm soreness. Any time a UCL is involved, things seldom look particularly good, but it at least seems as though Tommy John surgery is off the table at this time. Given that he won't be throwing for two weeks, however, it will be quite a while before he's back in action at the big-league level.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Out with forearm soreness

    Gutierrez was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday with right forearm soreness.

    The news comes after Gutierrez had moved back into a bullpen role earlier this week, so there isn't much fantasy fallout. Jared Solomon was recalled from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Nabs first win

    Gutierrez (1-6) earned the win Saturday versus the Giants. He allowed a run on six hits and a walk with four strikeouts in five innings.

    The only run against Gutierrez came on a Joc Pederson double in the third inning. It's been a brutal start to the season for Gutierrez, who had given up multiple runs in each of his first seven starts without completing five innings in any of them prior to Saturday's step in the right direction. He owns an ugly 7.71 ERA, 1.83 WHIP and 28:22 K:BB across 35 innings this year. The 26-year-old projects to make his next start versus the lowly Nationals next week.

  • Reds' Vladimir Gutierrez: Handed another loss

    Gutierrez (0-6) allowed four runs on four hits and two walks over four innings Monday, striking out five and taking a loss against the Cubs.

    Gutierrez took the mound for the first time since May 11 and tossed three scoreless frames before running into trouble in the fourth. He gave up an RBI double to Ian Happ followed by Patrick Wisdom's two-run blast. Gutierrez is now 0-6 with an ugly 8.70 ERA through seven starts this season. He was removed from the rotation earlier this month but never made an appearance out of the bullpen. The 26-year-old is currently lined up to face the Giants at home this weekend but it's unclear if he'll get another start.
