Reds Recall Levi Stoudt From Triple-A
2 years agoThe Cincinnati Reds recalled right-hander Levi Stoudt from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday and optioned right-hander Kevin Herget to Louisville in a corresponding move. Stoudt will be available in relief on Saturday. The team's No. 14 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, could have a chance to take over left-hander Nick Lodolo's (calf) rotation spot in the short term if the southpaw lands on the injured list. Right-hander Derek Law is start against the Fish on Saturday, but Stoudt figures to handle the bulk of the innings after Law exits. In his first big-league start on April 19 against the Tampa Bay Rays, Stoudt allowed seven runs on nine hits while walking one and striking out three in four innings. Stoudt isn't a finished product, but he has a shot at sticking in Cincy's rotation eventually with a legitimate four-pitch mix.
