Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Michael Lorenzen (21) throws a pitch.
Well, I think we have our answer. The Cincinnati Reds placed Art Warren on the 10-day IL likely paving the way for Michael Lorenzen‘s return to the team. Warren exited his last appearance prematurely and Lorenzen’s been on the injured list since the regular season began.
Now, with Lorenzen returning from the 60-day IL, another transaction will have to be made. While Warren’s oblique strain will put the right-hander out of commission until July 22nd at the earliest, the team will have to outright another player or designate someone from the 10-day IL to the 60-day IL in order to find Lorenzen a spot on the 40-man roster.
