All Things Bubba

Well, Orlando Cabrera is not being activated today. It seems he's had a bit of a setback. Throwing is bothering him, and he says he's not ready.

The Reds have not announced their transactions yet, but their AAA team, the Louisville Bats, have announced that infielder Chris Valaika and pitcher Sam LeCure are being called up. Not sure who's being sent down/DL'd.

Chris Valaika started out as a SS, but has been playing mostly 2B in Louisville. The consensus is that his glove isn't good enough for SS. I would guess he'll be a backup infielder, and Paul Janish will remain the starting SS.
