The Cincinnati Reds acquired Ke'Bryan Hayes from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday, July 30th, ahead of Thursday's trade deadline. Pittsburgh received shortstop prospect Sammy Stafura and relief pitcher Taylor Rogers in exchange for the 28-year-old.

The Cincinnati Reds have acquired third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes from the Pittsburgh Pirates. The trade was made Wednesday afternoon just over 24 hours away from the 2025 MLB trade deadline.

It was a down-and-up debut for Hayes. An error and home run in his first game sets the stage for what should be an interesting stay in Cincinnati. It's safe to say fans shouldn't expect errors or home runs to be a regular feature of Hayes' game, for better or worse.
