The Phillies traded minor league right-hander to the Reds for cash, Matt Gelb of the Athletic. Cincinnati a signed the 35-year-old to Triple-A Louisville. Buchanan is eligible to be traded after the deadline because he has not been on a 40-man roster all season. He signed a minor league contract with Philadelphia in February. Outside of a one-off start in High-A, he has pitched the entire season with Philadelphias top farm team in Lehigh Valley. He started 16 of 22 appearances with the IronPigs, working to a 4.82 ERA acro s 102 2/3 innings. His Mike Adams Jersey 17.5% strikeout percentage is subpar, but he has kept his walk rate to a solid 7.4% clip. A former 7th-round pick, Buchanan pitched with Philadelphia at the major league level between 2014-15. He had a solid 3.75 ERA as a rookie before allowing nearly seven earned runs per nine in year two. After spending the 16 campaign in Triple-A, Buchanan spent seven seasons in Asia. He played three seasons in Japan before a four-year run with the Samsung Lions in Korea. Cincinnatis rotation has been pummeled by injury. Theyve lost each of , and to the injured list in the past few weeks, while and have been out of action for months. Buchanan provides a strike-throwing depth arm who has eaten a solid number of innings in Triple-A this season. The Reds series of injuries gives him a better chance to pitch his way to the majors for the first time in nearly a decade than he would have had in Philadelphia. Lenny Dykstra Jersey
