But with the Reds rebuilding, Krall traded Pham to the Boston Red Sox on Monday night for a player to be named later.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Pham was scratched from the Reds&#8217; lineup minutes before the first pitch Monday in Miami, and he was informed he was traded.  He&#8217;s eligible to become a free agent at the end of the season, and the Red Sox will pick up his remaining salary, about $ 2.1 million, and a $ 500,000 trade assignment bonus. <\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">\u201cHe was really good, very prepared, took his craft very seriously and worked his butt off,\u201d Krall said.  \u201cWe really enjoyed having him in the clubhouse.  With where we are, this allows us to play one of the younger guys.  It allows him a chance to get to the playoffs.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">By rule, the player to be named later, which is typically a lower-level prospect, cannot be someone who is on a club&#8217;s 40-man roster or someone who was picked in last month&#8217;s draft. <\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">It&#8217;s the third trade for the rebuilding Reds since Thursday, sending outfielder Tyler Naquin to the New York Mets and Luis Castillo to the Seattle Mariners for young prospects. <\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Tyler Naquin to Mets:<\/strong>Cincinnati Reds trade outfielder Tyler Naquin to New York Mets for two minor leaguers<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Luis Castillo to Mariners:<\/strong>&#8216;Better for the long haul&#8217;: Reds trade Luis Castillo to Mariners for four prospects<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:441px\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/02\/PCIN\/e81e4be3-f293-4fb8-8931-27ca6f9d8fa0-070222RedsBraves27.JPG?ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/02\/PCIN\/e81e4be3-f293-4fb8-8931-27ca6f9d8fa0-070222RedsBraves27.JPG?width=1320&amp;height=882&amp;fit=crop&amp;format=pjpg&amp;auto=webp 2x\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cincinnati Reds left fielder Tommy Pham (28) catches a ball at the wall in the fifth inning of the MLB game between the Cincinnati Reds and the Atlanta Braves at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati on Saturday, July 2, 2022.\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">After trading Naquin and Pham, the Reds&#8217; outfield consists of Nick Senzel, Jake Fraley and Albert Almora.  Krall said Aristides Aquino will be activated from his rehab assignment on Tuesday, and Aquino was the only player Krall mentioned when asked about the team&#8217;s starting left fielder for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;We want to make sure that we&#8217;re giving our guys enough plate appearances at the big league level to get experience up here, to get better and continue to improve,&#8221; Krall said.<\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"advertisement\" class=\"gnt_m gnt_x gnt_x__lbl gnt_x__al\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Reds still have several trade candidates before Tuesday&#8217;s deadline.  Infielders Brandon Drury and Donovan Solano are eligible to become free agents at the end of the season.  Right-hander Tyler Mahle may be the best pitcher available on the trade market after Oakland shipped Frankie Montas to the New York Yankees.  Mike Minor and Hunter Strickland are options for playoff contenders searching for pitching depth. <\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"advertisement\" class=\"gnt_m gnt_x gnt_x__lbl gnt_x__al\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Krall said about trades on the horizon, &#8220;Still working, trying to figure out how to make us better.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Pham hit .238 with 11 doubles, 11 homers, 39 RBI and 57 runs in 91 games this season.  He slumped throughout July, which he called the worst month of his career, with a .204 batting average, two doubles, one triple, zero homers and a .255 on-base percentage. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:440px\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/28\/PCIN\/8796df47-a202-49f6-bb5c-674ab188159e-072822_REDS_0007.jpg?ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/28\/PCIN\/8796df47-a202-49f6-bb5c-674ab188159e-072822_REDS_0007.jpg?width=1320&amp;height=880&amp;fit=crop&amp;format=pjpg&amp;auto=webp 2x\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cincinnati Reds left fielder Tommy Pham (28) hits a one-run double during the first inning of a baseball game against the Miami Marlins, Thursday, July 28, 2022, at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati. \" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">He had one of baseball&#8217;s most memorable moments in the season after he slapped San Francisco Giants outfielder Joc Pederson before a game in May and was suspended for three games.  He said he was willing to fight San Diego&#8217;s Luke Voit after a slide at the plate, which he thought was a dirty play, left catcher Tyler Stephenson with a concussion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">In the clubhouse, Pham was a well-respected veteran known for his consistent approach and his relentlessness on the bases.  He stole seven bases in nine attempts. <\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Reds in July:<\/strong>The five biggest reasons for a winning month<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Tyler Stephenson:<\/strong>Reds catcher will need shoulder surgery, moves to 60-day IL<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Brandon Drury:<\/strong>Delivers again amid trade rumors in possible last home game with Reds<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:440px\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/10\/PCIN\/a1583a0f-0e96-43e7-a8b3-38dc06a85355-071022_REDS_0012.jpg?ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/10\/PCIN\/a1583a0f-0e96-43e7-a8b3-38dc06a85355-071022_REDS_0012.jpg?width=1320&amp;height=880&amp;fit=crop&amp;format=pjpg&amp;auto=webp 2x\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cincinnati Reds left fielder Tommy Pham (28) slides into third base safely his a triple during the third inning of a baseball game against the Tampa Bay Rays, Sunday, July 10, 2022, at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati.\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">It was the third time the 34-year-old Pham was traded in his nine-year career.  The Reds signed him as a free agent after they traded Jesse Winker, along with Eugenio Su\u00e1rez, to the Mariners in March. <\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">He signed a one-year, $7.5 million contract with the Reds during spring training, which includes a $6 million mutual option for the 2023 season and a $1.5 million buyout.  He&#8217;s received an additional $200,000 through incentives and can earn an additional $800,000 if he surpasses 600 plate appearances. <\/p>\n<aside class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_anc\" id=\"gnt_atomsnc\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-method=\"loadAnc\" aria-label=\"Newsletter signup form\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Pham became an obvious trade candidate after the Reds opened with a 3-22 record as a pending free agent.  Still, he offered a lot of praise for the coaching staff and the team&#8217;s talent throughout the year. <\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">\u201cWe were down six position players and we didn&#8217;t have Castillo and Minor,\u201d Pham said of the Reds&#8217; three-win April.  \u201cThis team is close.  I said it already This is a good team.  Bad things happened to us early in the year and we put ourselves in a big hole.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_fo__bet-best\" aria-label=\"Scores and odds from Tipico\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-type=\"comment\"><!--@pre<iframe class=gnt_em_fo_if src=\"\/tangfrag\/sports\/gaming\/bet-best?prm-embedded&prm-teamid=232&prm-gnteamid=2961&prm-league=MLB#fhp-assetid=10196022002\" loading=lazy sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-forms\" title=\"Scores and odds from Tipico\"><\/iframe>--><\/aside>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"gnt_em_gl_i\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/31\/PCIN\/ab1bb2bf-4160-4995-854c-5cfa9118e616-073122_REDS_0041.jpg?resize=660%2C372&#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/07\/31\/PCIN\/ab1bb2bf-4160-4995-854c-5cfa9118e616-073122_REDS_0041.jpg?crop=3155,1775,x0,y0&amp;width=1320&amp;height=744&amp;format=pjpg&amp;auto=webp 2x\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"372\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MIAMI \u2013 Cincinnati Reds general manager Nick Krall called left fielder Tommy Pham one of the hardest workers he has been around in the clubhouse.
