What happened: Cincinnati is drawing significant interest in Greene, but its willingness to engage remains mixed, according to Ken Rosenthal. A deal remains possible before the MLB trade deadline.

Why it matters: The uncertainty keeps a high-end starter in play as contenders search for pitching. Cincinnati must weigh potential offers against the value of retaining Greene.

By the numbers: Greene underwent surgery in March to remove bone chips and loose bodies from his right elbow before returning in July.

What to watch: Watch whether a late offer changes Cincinnati’s position before the deadline.
