JJ with a third night off (second game); they said he had a sore lower half when he sat out of Wednesday's game.

Nootbaar is back; Saggese optioned to Memphis. No surprises there.

Svanson has been recalled as Fernandez goes on the 15 day IL for lower back pain

[booger71]

Good to see Noot back. Svanson and Fernandez are equally bad pitchers so they are interchangeable.

Ugh Reds announcers
