The Reds acquired Lamb and fellow lefty prospects Brandon Finnegan and Cody Reed from the Royals for Johnny Cueto on July 26.
This season, Lamb is 10-2 with a 2.67 ERA in 20 Triple-A starts with Omaha and Louisville. In 111 1/3 innings, he has allowed 94 hits and 36 walks while striking out 117.
When he pitches, Lamb will be the seventh Reds player to make his Major League debut -- the sixth starting pitcher -- this season.
