Throws four scoreless innings
Abbott (shoulder) allowed one hit and struck out three over four scoreless innings in Saturday's spring start against the Padres.
Analysis
Abbott made his second Cactus League start and was impressive against a star-studded San Diego lineup. The left-hander was brought along slowly during spring training as a precaution, as Abbott missed the final six weeks of the 2024 regular season with a shoulder injury that persisted over the winter. As such, he'll open the season on the injured list, and it's not yet clear how much time Abbott will need to get ready to rejoin the rotation. He worked his pitch count up to 50 on Saturday, which means at least one more outing.

Headed to injured list
Abbott (shoulder) will begin the season on the injured list, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis
Abbott was able to make his spring debut Monday after spending most of camp working through the same shoulder issue that put an early end to his 2024 campaign. He was able to go three innings during his first spring start, but the Reds will send him to the 15-day IL at the start of the season to ensure he has enough time to build up his workload -- ideally to around five frames. While Abbott is out, Carson Spiers will serve as the fifth member of Cincinnati's rotation.

Makes spring debut
Abbott allowed two runs on three hits and one walk while striking out two over three innings in Monday's Cactus League start against the Guardians.
Analysis
Results weren't important for Abbott, who was behind other starter candidates due to a shoulder issue that first cropped up at the end of the 2024 regular season and persisted over the winter. He made his Cactus League debut and was pleased with the 48-pitch effort, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. The left-hander felt he was locating all of his pitches and getting three up-and-downs was a positive. The Reds would like Abbott to able to work five innings in order to feel comfortable inserting him into the rotation to start the regular season. Abbott will have one more opportunity to start during Cactus League play. Cincinnati does not need a fifth starter until April 5, which would give Abbott time for another session against minor leaguers or in a simulated game. If Abbott is not ready to go by then, Graham Ashcraft or Carson Spiers would fill in.
