Reds' Alec Mills: Debuts out of bullpen
Alec Mills allowed five runs (two earned) on four hits and one walk over one inning in Saturday's 12-5 loss to the Padres.Mills made his Cincinnati debut after his contract was selected from Triple-A Louisville last Tuesday. A one-time starter and long reliever, most recently with the Cubs, Mills was brought in as a reliever with potential to be a spot starter for a staff that currently has four healthy arms. He needed 40 pitches Saturday, which may preclude him from being used as a traditional starter for Tuesday's game in Washington, the next time the Cincinnati Reds need a fifth starter.

Reds' Alec Mills: Selected from Louisville
The Cincinnati Reds selected Alec Mills' contract from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.Mills signed a minor-league deal with Cincinnati in May and will now be called upon to provide depth to the Reds' heavily injured pitching staff. The 31-year-old righty has made two appearances in Triple-A, allowing three earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out just one batter through six innings. Though Mills will likely work out of the bullpen initially, the Reds recently optioned Levi Stoudt to Triple-A and could have an opening in the rotation the next time the club requires a fifth starter July 4 in Washington.

Alec Mills (back) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Friday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.The move should have no impact on Mills' return date, as he's been out with a lower-back strain since early July. He'll be eligible to return within a week but seems unlikely to do so, as he's yet to embark on a rehab assignment.
