Reds Recall Antone After Pagan Injury

The Cincinnati Reds are recalling pitcher Tejay Antone, 759 days after his third Tommy John surgery, to bolster their bullpen after closer Emilio Pagan suffered a hamstring injury. Antone has been effective at AAA level with a 2.25 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 15/6 K/BB in 12 games this season.

The Reds are in a 5-game losing streak and need to make room on their 40-man roster for Antone, possibly by placing Pagan on the 60-day IL or designating another player for assignment. sports24.club
