BRENT SUTER NEWS

Fills in admirably against Orioles Suter took a no-decision Sunday at Baltimore. He struck out one over three scoreless innings while yielding three hits and no walks.

Impact The veteran southpaw was called upon to sub for Carson Spiers (shoulder), who hit the injured list before this game. Suter was solid, generating six whiffs out of his 63 total pitches. With this effort, the 35-year-old now sports a 1.86 ERA and 0.83 WHIP across 9.2 innings. Suter probably will not make another start as one of Lyon Richardson or Connor Phillips, who are on the 40-man roster in Triple-A, will likely be promoted to fill a rotation spot.

Set to start Sunday Suter will start Sunday's game against the Orioles, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

Impact Sunday's previously scheduled starter Carson Spiers was needed to pitch Saturday and is now on the injured list with a shoulder issue, prompting the Reds to turn to Suter as an opener for the series finale in Baltimore. The left-hander has given up two earned runs with a 3:1 K:BB across 6.2 innings this season, and he should turn things over to the Cincinnati bullpen after an inning or two. Randy Wynne was added to the roster for Sunday's contest and is a candidate to work in bulk relief.
