-FayShortstop Alex Gonzalez was put on the disabled list with an elbow problem. He has four loose bodies floating in the area. He'll have surgery. They're hoping he'll be back in four weeks. He hurt on a swing in the final game with the Braves.
Wilkin Castillo and Danny Richar are being added to the roster. A couple of more moves are coming. Richar has to be added to 40-man. The moves won't be announced until the tell the players affected.

That's worse than when Freel had Farney.He has four loose bodies floating in the area.
We have a Danny Richar sighting...
... and that ain't a good thing
Four loose bodies floating in your elbow?
Wasn't that a porno title?
Probably amazing Gonzo played as much as he did this year. Whatever, he's not the future on the Reds.
Just a guess now -- I'd guess that Rosales goes to AAA and somebody else comes off the 40-man roster to make room for Richar. The theory would be that Richar fits better than Rosales with Gonzalez out and middle infield depth weakened. Don't know who would be dropped from the 40.
But it sounds very mysterious.
Considering Rosales is starting at 3B tonight, I don't think it is.
Richar had been hitting well lately at AAA.
I see Rosales is playing tonight so my previous comment is officially withdrawn.

The Reds have 13 pitchers currently, I would imagine Burton goes down to make room for Castillo.

Hopefully it's not Roenicke. I still haven't seen him pitch.

What is the lineup tonight? Can't find it.
This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.
Richar:
.378 .417 .644 1.061
in the month of June in AAA
And he was once a top prospect, with a lot of power.

Maybe now that they'll have some LH bats on the bench, Baker will be able to bring himself to start 3 LH bats in the OF vs. righties.
Not a big Richar fan, but he has been playing well lately. Had a few starts at SS, if memory serves.

I won't post the lineup, 'cuz I don't think we're supposed to here.
Richar has played only 7 games at short this year. Guess we'll be seeing Janish hit 2nd alot the next month.
