Luis Mey - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Sent back down to minors The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

Impact Mey was recalled from Louisville on Tuesday and got into one game with the Reds, allowing two runs on three walks, a hit batsman and one hit over one-third of an inning versus St. Louis on Friday. He'll now return to the minors in order to clear a spot on the 26-man roster for Rhett Lowder (shoulder), who was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Back in majors The Reds recalled Mey from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

Sent to Triple-A The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

Impact Mey was called up by Cincinnati in late April and made six appearances in the big leagues, giving up five earned runs with a 14:7 K:BB across 8.1 innings. He'll return to Triple-A for now but could return to the big leagues when the Reds need bullpen depth.

Summoned from minors The Reds recalled Mey from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

Impact Mey has offered a mixed bag at Louisville this season, posting a 4.91 ERA and 1.46 WHIP but also a 14:3 K:BB over 11 innings. The hard thrower might only be with the big club for a few days while Graham Ashcraft is on the bereavement list.

Optioned to Triple-A The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

Impact Mey will fall short of a spot in Cincinnati's Opening Day bullpen after surrendering nine earned runs in just six Cactus League innings. Although he struggled this spring, the 24-year-old righty posted a 3.43 ERA in 21 innings with the Reds last season and a 2.48 ERA across 40 frames in the minors, so he figures to rejoin the big-league squad at some point this year whenever Cincinnati needs a fresh arm.

Optioned to Louisville The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Mey has managed to hold the opposition to one run over 6.2 innings during his latest stint in the majors, but that's in spite of nine hits and seven walks. The Reds will announce a corresponding roster move prior to Friday's game in Arizona.

Back with big club The Reds recalled Mey from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

Returns to minors The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.

Impact Mey was called up Friday after fellow reliever Scott Barlow was placed on the paternity list, but with Barlow back with the club Saturday, Mey is heading back to Louisville. The righty didn't get into Friday's contest but has a good chance of being back with the big club at some point later this season if a spot in the bullpen opens up.

Sent back to Louisville The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.

Impact After starting his MLB career with a 1.80 ERA and 0.90 WHIP through 10 innings, Mey has given up four earned runs in three frames across his last three appearances. He'll now head back to the minor leagues in order to right the ship, and the Reds will presumably make a corresponding addition to their bullpen ahead of Friday's series opener against the Cubs.

Strong start to MLB career Mey struck out two and didn't allow a baserunner in a scoreless inning during Thursday's 7-1 win against the White Sox.

Impact Mey is one of Cincinnati's top prospects, and he's allowed just one run with an 11:3 K:BB across 7.1 innings since being promoted May 1. The 23-year-old righty has recorded one hold but has mostly pitched in lower-leverage spots, though he'll likely work his way into the high-leverage mix if he can continue the strong performance. Journeyman Emilio Pagan has taken over the closer role with Alexis Diaz demoted to Triple-A amid his struggles, and Mey could have an outside shot at seeing some saves this season.
