The Cincinnati Reds announced that second baseman Scooter Gennett should avoid going on the injured list after exiting Wednesday night’s game with left groin tightness. They also noted that Gennett could possibly return on Saturday. He was given the day off on Thursday, and with the off day today for the Reds 150th Anniversary Celebration, that would give him two full days of rest.
The Cleveland Indians come to town for a 2-game series on Saturday. They will be running out two pretty good pitchers in Shane Bieber, who was just named to the All-Star team, and Trevor Bauer.
