1 year agoThe Cincinnati Reds placed right-handers Ben Lively (illness) and Fernando Cruz (illness) on the COVID injured list on Friday and recalled right-hander Lyon Richardson from Triple-A Louisville and activated reliever Tejay Antone (elbow) from the 60-day injured list in corresponding moves. Richardson made the start for Game 2 of a doubleheader against the Chicago Cubs on Friday. In addition to Lively and Cruz, the Reds placed right-hander Hunter Greene on the COVID IL earlier in the day on Friday, leaving Cincinnati short-handed in a crucial weekend series against the Cubbies. Lively was originally scheduled to start Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader, but now he'll be sidelined for at least a week.
