The harsh weather in St. Louis forced last night’s game to be postponed and now the Cincinnati Reds will play back-to-back doubleheaders on Saturday and Sunday. With what’s sure to be an exhausted outfield, Jose Siri could make his major league debut quicker than some had thought.
Due to Saturday’s doubleheader, Cincinnati had already announced the addition of right-hander Tyler Mahle to the roster. Major League Baseball allows clubs to recall one additional player who is on the 40-man roster to serve as the 26th man on the day of a doubleheader.
