Reds' Chase Petty: Optioned to Triple-A
The Reds optioned Petty to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.
Petty pitched each of the last two days, throwing 32 pitches over 1.1 innings in an appearance Wednesday, so he's being replaced by a fresh bullpen arm. The righty has collected a 4.50 ERA and 14:8 K:BB over 30 frames for Cincinnati this season.

Reds' Edwin Arroyo: Dispatched to minors
The Reds optioned Arroyo to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.
Arroyo has served as the Reds' primary second baseman since early June but has produced just a .244/.286/.282 batting line with zero home runs and a 5:31 BB:K across 142 plate appearances. If he can get back on track at Louisville, Arroyo could receive another opportunity later this season. For now, though, the Reds appear poised to hand their second-base job back to Matt McLain, who returned from the injured list Thursday.

Reds' Zach McCambley: Recalled from Triple-A
The Reds recalled McCambley from Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.
McCambley will give the Reds a fresh bullpen arm after they played a doubleheader Wednesday. The righty permitted three runs with a 4:5 K:BB over 4.1 innings in a previous stint with Cincinnati.

Reds' Matt McLain: Activated from 10-day IL
The Reds activated McLain (calf) from the 10-day injured list Thursday.
McLain has been sidelined since early July with a left calf strain, but he's been cleared to return to action after going 5-for-17 with a 2:5 BB:K in five rehab games with Triple-A Louisville. The Reds also optioned Edwin Arroyo on Thursday, which could allow McLain to become the club's regular at second base again. McLain has slashed just .190/.293/.328 with eight homers and 11 stolen bases this season.

Reds' Jose Franco: Shut down from throwing
Franco (forearm) has been shut down from throwing for a minimum of two weeks, MLB.com reports.
Franco was called up to the roster for Tuesday's doubleheader and pitched 3.2 innings before departing with discomfort in his right forearm. The report indicates the source of the problem is a flexor mass strain, and not his elbow as originally reported.

Reds' Tony Santillan: Will undergo more imaging
Santillan (oblique) will undergo additional imaging Friday, MLB.com reports.
The purpose of the imaging is to determine how Santillan is healing, and the Reds hope to speed up his rehab based on the results of testing. He's been throwing off flat ground at 40 percent intensity.

Reds' Brandon Williamson: Beginning rehab assignment Saturday
Williamson (shoulder/finger) will begin a rehab assignment Saturday at Double-A Chattanooga, MLB.com reports.
Williamson landed on the injured list in April due to a shoulder issue before suffering a finger injury late in June. The left-hander has been facing hitters and is ready for live games. He's expected to throw two innings and 45 pitches.

Reds' Brady Singer: Struggles with control in loss
Singer (5-10) took the loss against Cleveland on Wednesday, allowing four runs (all unearned) on six hits and four walks while striking out three across 4.1 innings.
After a nice streak of three starts of more than six innings, Singer stumbled in the 6-1 loss to the Guardians, only throwing 58 of his 100 pitches for strikes and walking two people home. The righty had not had an outing this short since June. Singer has now tied for the MLB-lead with 10 losses on the year, even though his stats are not so bad. The 29-year-old now sits at a 4.35 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 107.2 innings so far this season.

Reds' Nathaniel Lowe: Sitting against left-hander
Lowe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
After going 5-for-12 with a double, two RBI and a run scored while starting in the Reds' last three games, the left-handed-hitting Lowe will head to the bench while the Guardians send southpaw Joey Cantillo to the bump. Sal Stewart will move across the diamond to replace Lowe at first base while Ke'Bryan Hayes picks up a start at third base.

Reds' Jose Franco: Heading back to Triple-A
The Reds optioned Franco (elbow) to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.
Franco will report back to Triple-A after he served as the Reds' 27th man for Wednesady's doubleheader with the Guardians. He was active for Game 2 of the twin bill and worked in bulk relief in the Reds' 2-0 victory, earning his first big-league win while striking out two and allowing one hit and two walks over 3.2 scoreless frames before exiting in the seventh inning due to right elbow discomfort. He'll likely undergo further testing before the Reds have a better idea regarding the extent of his injury, but Franco could be at risk of landing on Louisville's 7-day injured list if he isn't ready to go for his next turn through the rotation.

Reds' JJ Bleday: Sitting versus southpaw
Bleday is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Guardians.
The left-handed-hitting Bleday plays against most southpaws, but he will begin Wednesday's game on the bench as the Guardians send lefty Joey Cantillo to the hill. Ivan Johnson will cover left field for the Reds.

Reds' Dane Myers: Seeing more time in CF
Myers went a combined 3-for-6 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against Cleveland.
Myers started in center field for both ends of the doubleheader and made a fourth consecutive start there. Reds manager Terry Francona alluded to Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News that the backup outfielder could see more time as a starter in the second half. "You'll probably see him play more than he was," Francona said. "The hard part is he does such a good job being that righty off the bench, kind of a weapon. But where we're at right now, you'll probably see him play more than he did before." The Reds are dealing with several injuries to players that could defend center field, including Blake Dunn (elbow), Matt McLain (calf) and Spencer Steer (wrist). TJ Friedl will also get starts there.

Reds' JJ Bleday: Homers in nightcap
Bleday went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a 2-0 win over the Guardians in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader.
After going 0-for-5 in the matinee, Bleday launched a solo home run in the first inning of the nightcap, which is all the Reds would need. It was the 18th homer of the season for Bleday, who should spark interest from playoff contenders leading up to next week's trade deadline. The outfielder has a career-high .807 OPS through 78 games for Cincinnati, which is five games out of the wild-card hunt and last in the NL Central.

Reds' Ivan Johnson: Swipes two bags in Tuesday's start
Johnson went 1-for-2 with a walk and two stolen bases in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Guardians.
Getting the start at second base and batting seventh in the nightcap, Johnson swiped both his bags after an eighth-inning walk as he tried to produce an insurance run in a 2-0 victory. It was only Johnson's second big-league start since making his debut for the Reds on June 30, and the hit and stolen bases were the first of his career. Edwin Arroyo has been scuffling of late, but any chance for Johnson to see more opportunities at the keystone will likely disappear once Matt McLain (calf) returns from the IL.

Reds' Emilio Pagan: Collects 11th save
Pagan recorded his 11th save of the season in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Guardians, giving up a hit and striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning.
The veteran righty completed a combined shutout for the Reds staff that featured five different pitchers, as the group combined to allow just three singles. Pagan has converted all five of his save chances since coming off the IL at the beginning of July, and on the month he's produced a 2.46 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 12:3 K:BB over 7.1 innings.

Reds' Sal Stewart: Powers offense in Tuesday's matinee
Stewart went 2-for-3 with two walks, a home run, three RBI and a stolen base in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Guardians.
The 22-year-old got the Reds on the board with a solo shot off Slade Cecconi in the third inning before driving in two more runs in the fourth with a single. The steal was Stewart's first since June 16 and his 12th of the season, but he's gone yard three times in the last eight contests to reach 22 on the year. After going 0-for-3 in the nightcap, Stewart sports a .254/.332/.475 slash line through 106 contests with 56 runs and 79 RBI.

Reds' Chase Burns: Hurt by defense in no-decision
Burns didn't factor into the decision in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Guardians, allowing five runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out four.
The matinee got off to a disastrous start for Burns and the Reds, as an Edwin Arroyo error helped prolong the first inning and eventually set up a grand slam by Kyle Manzardo. The right-hander kept his cool and shut Cleveland down for the next three frames, exiting after 89 pitches (58 strikes) with the score tied 5-5. Burns still hasn't been saddled with a loss since April 10, and over nine starts since the beginning of June he's gone 5-0 with a 2.98 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 56:21 K:BB over 48.1 innings. He'll look to stay sharp in his next outing, which is currently scheduled to come at home this weekend against the Pirates.
