    Reds Claim Kevin Gausman

    Per Passan

    Right-hander Kevin Gausman is headed to the Cincinnati Reds, sources tell ESPN. He was claimed off waivers from the Atlanta Braves. The 28-year-old has one more season remaining until he hits free agency following 2020 though could be a non-tender candidate this winter.

    Reds claim Kevin Gausman

    Reds roughed him up and then claimed him.

    I am guessing he goes to the pen, striking out 10 per 9ip

    No word on whether he is going to big club and if so, who he would replace.

    Re: Reds Claim Kevin Gausman

    His peripherals are similar to his career numbers, so there’s a good chance he bounces back. Good, smart pick up. He’s also not cheap, making $9M a year, so nice to see the Reds willing to add payroll in order to add talent.

    He stuck out like a sore thumb in Atlanta's rotation. Maybe he can be a useful part of the Reds' bullpen.

    Why does it seem like we are like Eric Idle pushing the cart in Holy Grail?

    I guess we subscribe to the not dead yet mentality. Maybe our pitching coach can work miracles? Who knows?

    Reds might be blocking the Brewers from claiming him with this move

    Re: Reds Claim Kevin Gausman

    Wow, that's interesting. I was pretty high on Gausman at one point, he's never really been able to live up to his potential but until this year the results were never all that bad either.

    I'm surprised the Reds were willing to take on what was left of his salary for this season, but he seems worth a flier.

    I love this pickup.

    The Tea Leaves would suggest the path of least resistance is to option Sims down to AAA.

    I assume there's a chance this could be the end for Hernandez.
