On September 22, 2021, Cincinnati selected Moreta's contract to the 40-man roster and promoted him to the major leagues for the first time.[8] Moreta made his MLB debut on September 26, tossing a scoreless inning of work against the Washington Nationals. In four appearances for Cincinnati during his rookie campaign, Moreta recorded a 2.45 ERA with four strikeouts across 3+2⁄3 innings pitched.[9]

On July 14, 2022, Moreta recorded his first career save after logging the final two outs in a game against the New York Yankees.[10] He made 35 appearances for the Reds over the course of the season, compiling an 0-2 record and 5.40 ERA with 39 strikeouts over 38+1⁄3 innings pitched.[11]
