Luis Mey didn't get his act together, and it cost him. On Thursday, the Cincinnati Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville. The 24-year-old flamethrower had been dominant at times, but the wildness is difficult to watch. Former Reds pitcher Buck Farmer has been pitching well for the Reds' Triple-A affiliate, and he may soon get the call.
Farmer has posted a 3.18 ERA over 12 games since returning to the Reds organization and has five saves thus far for the Lluisville Bats. The 34-year-old veteran won't wow you with his stuff, but he could bring consistency and reliability a Reds' bullpen that desperately needs it.
