Cincinnati Reds place Ben Lively on injured list, deepening need for pitching help

Cincinnati Reds starter Ben Lively has a bum pec, and it’s sent him to the 15-day injured list as of Saturday afternoon. That means he joins Nick Lodolo, Hunter Greene, Connor Overton, Justin Dunn, Vlad Gutierrez, Tejay Antone, Tony Santillan, Derek Law, and Casey Legumina in the team’s pitching infirmary, with Graham Ashcraft having only just emerged from said list earlier today.

The Reds announced the IL decision, though they’ve yet to announce who will take Lively’s spot on the roster.

The #Reds today placed RHP Ben Lively (right pectoral muscle strain) on the 15-day injured list, retro to Wednesday.
