Brandon Finnegan Optioned To Make Room For Matt Harvey
6 years agoThe Cincinnati Reds optioned left-hander Brandon Finnegan to Triple-A Louisville on Friday in order to clear room to add newly-acquired right-hander Matt Harvey to the 25-man roster. Harvey will make his first start as a Red on Friday night as he gets set to take on the Los Angeles Dodgers. Finnegan went 0-3 with a 7.40 ERA in five starts and has struggled mightily with his control this season. He will look to get his season back on track in the minors. Interim manager Jim Riggleman said that they want Finnegan to get 100% healthy, insinuating that he was not fully recuperated from a biceps strain suffered during the spring.
