Reds to call up Jon Moscot to start tonight

In a surprising move, the Reds have announced that Jon Moscot will take Raisel Iglesias' spot for tonight's game against the Padres.

RHP Jon Moscot (#46) will start for the Reds tonight instead of RHP Raisel Iglesias. Moscot will be making his Major League debut.

Moscot was 7-1 with a 3.15 ERA in Louisville this year, and has been rumored to be getting his shot soon, so it's not a total shock that he's getting the call. I think he was always next in line, but it's surprising that it's coming so soon, and at the expense of having Iglesias in the rotation.
