Cincinnati Reds add Luis Mey, Tyler Callihan to 40-man roster ahead of Rule 5 Draft

Luis Mey has been busy throwing 103 mph heaters past anyone and everyone he’s faced so far for the Glendale Desert Dogs in the Arizona Fall League. He’s so far surrendered a lone hit and a pair of walks against 8 strikeouts in 8.2 IP of work, and he’s racked up 6 saves in the process.
