The latest minor moves from around baseball:
- Reds left-hander Phillip Diehl cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Bobby Nightengale of the Cincinnati Enquirer tweets. The Reds added Diehl as a waiver claim from the Rockies on April 14, but the Cincinnati native didn’t appear in a game with his hometown team before they designated him for assignment last weekend. The 26-year-old’s only big league experience so far came from 2019-20 as a member of the Rockies, with whom he pitched a total of 13 1/3 innings and yielded 13 earned runs on 17 hits. Diehl also struggled in Triple-A during the offensively charged 2019 minor league season, but he has registered dominant numbers at the lower levels of the minors. He amassed 40 Double-A innings from 2018-19 and put up a minuscule 0.90 ERA with 41 strikeouts, 14 walks and just 23 hits allowed.
I guess he wasn’t a great deal for the Reds
I think he’s getting a raw Diehl.
What’s the Diehl?
So you got sent down, Diehl with it.
Rockies have gotten rid of both Diehl and Dahl. I think Octavio Dotel is retired.
Missed opportunity with Ryan Dull signing with the Mariners.
What’s the Diehl with Phillip?
Alright kids enough! Mommy has cookies for you, come up from the basement and get some.
And go outside and get some fresh air!
Momma’s cookies are always a diehl-breaker
Sounds like he got a “raw Diehl”
