Reds activate Brad Brach, option Alejo Lopez to Triple-A
The Cincinnati Reds have activated right-handed reliever Brad Brach from the injured list. To create room on the 28-man roster the team also optioned infielder Alejo Lopez to Triple-A Louisville.
The 35-year-old Brach last pitched on August 7th when he allowed two earned runs in 0.2 innings against Pittsburgh. Earlier this week he went on a rehab assignment to Triple-A Louisville. He pitched in two games for the Bats, throwing a shutout inning in each appearance. He gave up one hit, walked no one, and he struck out three batters between his two games.
