7 years agoUpdating a previous report, Cincinnati Reds left-hander Brandon Finnegan (biceps) is getting close to returning to the team after opening the season on the 10-day disabled list. Finnegan threw a simulated game on Wednesday and the team had positive things to say about his performance. Manager Bryan Price stated, "(He) threw the ball really good. All of his pitches for strikes," and continued to say, "We're going to shoot to get him one more start in Louisville on Monday. At that point in time, we're hoping he'll be ready to come up and join us the next time through the rotation. We'll have to wait and see. It’s very encouraging but we do want to get his innings up a little bit before we actually activate him.” Finnegan should be back with the big league rotation sooner rather than later but will need to successfully complete a start at Triple-A Louisville first.--Matt T - RotoBaller
