CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati Reds President of Baseball Operations Nick Krall tonight announced the acquisition of RHP Brady Singer from the Kansas City Royals in exchange for 2b Jonathan India and OF Joey Wiemer.

Singer, 28, set career highs for the Royals in 2024 with 32 starts, 179.2 innings, and 170 strikeouts. Since his 2020 Major League debut, his 124 starts and 685.1 innings rank among American League leaders.

Singer held right-handed batters to a .208 batting average last season, ninth-best in the American League. He completed 5.0 innings in 30 of 32 starts and pitched to a 3.71 ERA.

Singer was selected by Kansas City in the first round (18th overall) of the 2018 first-year player draft out of the University of Florida. In 2018, he was named SEC Pitcher of the Year and earned the Dick Howser Trophy as college baseball's top player.

India, 27, batted .253 with 63 HR and 42 stolen bases in 4 seasons with the Reds. The 2021 National League Rookie of the Year appeared in 133 games at second base in 2024, and batted leadoff 105 times.

Wiemer, 25, appeared in 2 games for the Reds after he and RHP Jakob Junis were acquired from Milwaukee on July 30 in a trade that sent RHP Frankie Montas to the Brewers.
