The Reds have optioned former All-Star closer Alexis Diaz to Triple-A Louisville, per a team announcement. Fellow right-hander Luis Mey is being recalled from Louisville in his place. Mey will be making his MLB debut the first time he takes the mound.
It’s been a brutal season for Diaz, who already lost the closer’s role in Cincinnati. The 28-year-old righty is pitching with a career-low 93 mph average fastball velocity and currently has more walks (five) and home runs allowed (four) than strikeouts (three). The result is a ghastly 12.00 ERA, which was inflated heavily by yesterday’s five-run meltdown against the Cardinals.
More to come.
