Sonny Gray to the 10 day IL with rib cage strain. Tony Santillan called up in the bullpen.

Sonny wouldn't have pitched this series anyway and should be available game 3 after the break right?

@CharlieG__

Reds starter Sonny Gray went on the 10-day IL today with a rib cage strain.
Gray said, “It was something I was managing yesterday throughout the game… It’s just a little spot, I don’t think it’s too big of a deal."
“Where I sit right now, when my turn comes available, I feel like I’ll be able to play.”

Reds play seven in a row with Brewers surrounding the ASB.

The last three are at GABP.

They need to win a few, but I don’t view this as life or death. Obviously can’t lose 6 or 7 of them.

Just play tough competitive ball and should come out of this in a pennant race of some sort.

Looked at Mahle's splits this year to make sure I wasn't imagining him doing this a lot in the first inning. 2.65 ERA in the first inning of starts but 11 walks, easily his most by any inning. Seems like he's wild to start and then settles in.

Sounds like a pre-game preparation or warm up issue

Many starting pitchers say the mound adjustment from the pen gives them some trouble and of course you are always facing good part of lineup.

We can complain he nibbled but he also never gave in
