The Cincinnati Reds will have a familiar face back in their bullpen beginning tonight, as Tony Cingrani and his plus pitch face have been activated from the 10-day DL. Cingrani hit the DL back on April 20th with an oblique issue that wasn’t originally slated to need nearly 7 weeks of rest and rehab, but as we watched with Anthony DeSclafani (remember him?) last year, oblique injuries are testy, and often need a complete shutdown to full heal.
The Reds announced the move on Twitter, including that RHP Lisalverto Bonilla was optioned to AAA Louisville to make room on the roster.
