The Cincinnati Reds have announced that they’ve called up right-handed pitcher Keury Mella and infielder/outfielder Brian O’Grady. This isn’t the first time that Brian O’Grady has been called up this season. This will mark the first time this year that Keury Mella will be in the Major Leagues this season. Mella has been in the Majors in past seasons with the Reds.
When you look at the numbers for Keury Mella this season in Triple-A nothing really jumps out at you. His ERA was 5.05 over 27 starts. That’s slightly worse than the league average in the era of the juiced baseball.
