    I agree. I see so many accusing Krivsky of making moves to save face and to put himself before the team when he has shown me nothing of that nature. He will do what's best for the Reds and if that means optioning Majewski to Louisville, he will do it.

    He is scheduled to pitch Wednesday versus Chris Carpenter...my guess is that Eddie Guardado is heading to the DL.

    I've never seen anyone say that about Krivsky, but if they have they have NO CLUE what they're talking about.

    Yan-DFA
    McCraken-DFA
    White-DFA
    Kata-DFA
    Mays-DFA

    Those are "his guys." He brought them in and when they didn't work out he DFA'd them and moved on.

    My guess is that both Standridge and Majewski will be sent out soon. In Majewski's case, AAA makes more sense than the DL because he can return in ten days rather than 15.

    Man, can Krivsky pile up these relievers.

    They've implied it by making comments that basically say that Krivsky will not option Majewski to Louisville because he traded for him.

    I don't believe that for a second. Krivsky wants to win, not boost his reputation. If he had a problem with sticking with his guys, Joe Mays would still be in the Cincinnati rotation and Rick White would be closing.

    In Majewski's case I would like to see him sent to Louisville and rested for two weeks. Give him a tune up game or two and bring him back. He was abused by Washington and a little good rest could really help him. He is not this bad.
    Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.

    I agree, I don't believe it for a second either. But I have read comments of that nature on here.

    No reason for Majewski to AAA. DL him with tired arm, and bring him back in a couple weeks.

    Exactly what I read on another board just happend, although I haven't been able to verify it yet. Reportedly came from John Fay, Majewski to the DL for should inflammation.

    Re: Ryan Franklin is a Red

    From Lancaster's blog, the following moves have been made:

    # Ryan Franklin acquired from the Phillies, should be in uniform tonight
    # Kent Mercker activated from the DL
    # Gary Majewski placed on the 15-day DL with "inflammation" in his right shoulder
    # Jason Standridge placed on the 15-day DL with back spasms
    # Matt Belisle sent to Louisville on a rehab assignment
    # Brandon Claussen returned from his rehab assignment but NOT reinstated

    Re: Ryan Franklin is a Red

    Mercker and Franklin are now here and Majewski and Standridge both were DL'd.

    Four lefties in the bullpen now...

    Re: Ryan Franklin is a Red

    The big question is what's going to be done with Claussen. He has returned from his rehab assigment but has not been reinstated. They have to make a decision today, correct? Any chance he gets DFA'd?
