March 16, 2026
The Reds optioned Dunn to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.
Analysis
Dunn entered spring training as one of eight outfielders on the 40-man roster and was one of the lesser-established options at the big-league level, so he needed a big showing in the Cactus League to have a realistic shot at making the Opening Day squad. The 27-year-old was unable to deliver, hitting just .136 with five strikeouts in 22 at-bats this spring before the Reds demoted him. He should get the chance to play regularly at Louisville to begin the season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Dunn reached the majors in 2024 but not because he forced his way there. Injuries and underperformance in Cincinnati prompted then-manager David Bell to shuffle bodies around and seek alternatives. The 26-year-old outfielder, who tore through High-A and Double-A in 2023, saw his production drop off in his first taste at the highest level of the minors. Dunn experienced a 300-point drop in OPS from Double-A to Triple-A and saw his strikeout rate (26.5 percent) increase. The silver lining is that he maintained value on the bases with 20 steals. The Reds added to the outfield during the offseason - Austin Hays - and are expected to move Matt McLain to center field. Those moves coupled with incumbent outfielders on the 40-man indicate Dunn will get a second crack at mastering Triple-A pitching.
Dunn has been statistically dominant at Single-A as a 23-year-old (179 wRC+), and at High-A (149 wRC+) and Double-A (163 wRC+) as a 24-year-old. He has stolen 72 bases with 27 home runs in 157 games over that stretch, but his age hangs over all this production like a cloud. There are no top-100 hitting prospects who were born before 1999, so the fact that Dunn was born in 1998 and hasn't even reached Triple-A is relevant. Joey Ortiz, Austin Shenton and Michael Busch are the other hitters born before 1999 in the top 200, but they've all essentially mastered Triple-A already. Dunn has dealt with injuries that have slowed his development, and he is legitimately a good athlete, unlike most late bloomers, so we shouldn't write him off just because of his age, although we should greatly temper expectations. The nice thing about rostering Dunn in dynasty leagues is that you can churn the spot (cut him) as soon as he struggles at Triple-A, and if he doesn't struggle, you just ride it out.
