Dateline: Cincinnati
Hunter Greene made a rehab start against the St. Paul Saints on Sunday.
Greene was scheduled to throw 85 pitches. This may be his last rehab start as long as he recovers normally.
The 26-year old right hander pitched 6 1/3 scoreless innings in Louisville. He allowed one hit. He struck out four with no walks. He threw 84 pitches with 54 strikes.
Greene made two starts in Louisville and one in the Arizona Complex League. In Triple A he totaled 10 1-3 innings with no runs on three hits and a walk.
Greene had bone chips removed in March after not retiring a single batter in the first inning in his lone spring training start against the Milwaukee Brewers. He could join the Reds in Milwaukee but likely won’t be activated until the team returns home against the Baltimore Orioles. If he stays on a five day rotation routine. His first start would be Friday.
Emilio Pagan finished his second rehab appearance also on Sunday. It took him a total of 13 pitches in two scoreless outings in Louisville. Pagan will likely be activated sooner.
The Reds placed Tony Santillan, the substitute closer, on the injured list on Friday.
The Reds have 11 pitchers who recorded a save this season. Pagan still leads with six even missing 44 games (25-29) since May 6 when he was placed on the injured list with a strained left hamstring.
