Travis Wood Optioned to Louisville Sam LeCure is Reinstated From the DL

The Reds sent Travis Wood back to Louisville prior to the doubleheader with the New York Yankees.  Wood was the losing pitcher on Monday night.

Wood has been spotty in his 16 starts.  He is 5-5 but lost two of his last three decisions.  He had a fourth start in which he had no decision, when he pitched eight innings and allowed two runs to San Francisco.

LeCure has been pitching well in his rehab assignment.  He pitched three scoreless innings against Toledo on Saturday.
