RHP Jon Moscot's Tommy John surgery, which took place Monday, came as a surprise to everyone involved. "(Moscot's injury) wasn't defined as an ulnar collateral injury immediately," manager Bryan Price said. "There were some bone spurs that are quite common. He went in for treatment and when things didn't progress, they verified he had some issues with the UCL and took care of that as well." Price said Moscot could be out through next season but declined to specify a specific timeline. Moscot had been on Triple-A Louisville's disabled list since July 5. Moscot went 0-3 with an 8.02 ERA in five starts during two stints with the Reds.

Moscot was staked to an early 5-0 lead, but couldn't take advantage, allowing five earned runs in 3 2/3 innings. "I have to do a better job at limiting the damage, Moscot said. "It has nothing to do with (DeSclafani) coming back. I'm glad he's coming back. He's one of my best friends on the team. I have to prove that I belong."

Moscot was scratched from his scheduled start against the Giants on Tuesday and was being groomed for the bullpen when the soreness in his non-throwing didn't subside, prompting a stint on the DL. "We haven't been able to get complete relief," said manager Bryan price. "Until we do, he's not going to pitch. He's playing catch and getting treatment." Next step might be live batting practice or a short rehab stint.

LHP John Lamb came off the DL to replace Moscot in the rotation.
