April 23, 2025 9:29 AM : Hays is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in Miami.
Analysis: Hays had started each of the first eight games upon his activation from the 10-day injured list, but he'll get a breather for Wednesday's matinee. Gavin Lux is in left field and Jeimer Candelario is at designated hitter for the Reds.
