The Cincinnati Reds have acquired Connor Joe from the San Diego Padres for Andrew Moore and cash considerations.

In a corresponding move, they transferred Tyler Callihan to the 60-day injured list.

Joe had played in just nine games with the Padres this season, going 0-7 with a walk. In 2024, Joe appeared in 123 games for the Pittsburgh Pirates, slashing .228/.320/.368 with 32 extra-base hits.

Last season, Joe saw time at first base, left field, and right field.

Moore, 25, had a 4.15 ERA in six games for Double-A Chattanooga this season. Moore was originally acquired from the Seattle Mariners in the Luis Castillo trade.
