The Reds made a few roster moves today. They placed Amir Garrett on the DL with hip inflammation, claimed righty Jake Buchanan from the Cubs, and DFA’d Peter O’Brien.
Garrett is the 58th Reds starting pitcher to land on the DL so far this season. “Right hip inflammation” doesn’t sound all that fun, either. Red Reporter’s head trainer and physical therapist, arf-diggity, says inflammation in the hip flexor is preferable to inflammation in the hip labrum, so hopefully it is the former. The Reds haven’t clarified.
