Reds' Andrew Abbott: Could return from IL next week
Andrew Abbott (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, MLB.com reports.The side session was Abbott's second since he landed on the 15-day injured list Aug. 23 with a left shoulder strain. Abbott is expected to face hitters in live batting practice this weekend, and if all goes well, he could return from the IL next week to make one final appearance before the end of the regular season. Given that he'll have missed more than a month and won't have the benefit of making a minor-league appearance beforehand if he's activated, Abbott is expected to be limited to a relief role.

Reds' Andrew Abbott: Placed on IL
The Cincinnati Reds placed Andrew Abbott on the 15-day injured list Friday with a left shoulder strain.Abbott was initially the Reds' probable pitcher for Friday's game against the Pirates, but Cincinnati named reliever Buck Farmer as the opener before eventually putting Abbott on the shelf. If the left-hander can return when first eligible Sept. 4, he'd only miss one more start. Cincinnati recalled Alan Busenitz from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move, and he could fill Abbot's spot in the rotation after getting stretched out to four innings and 45 pitches in his last appearance for Louisville on Aug. 17. Abbott has a 3.72 ERA across 138 innings spanning 25 starts this season.

Reds' Andrew Abbott: Likely for bulk innings Friday
Andrew Abbott won't start Friday against the Pirates but could be available in bulk relief, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.Abbott was originally listed as the probable pitcher for Friday's game, but the Cincinnati Reds have since named Buck Farmer as the official starter. Farmer hasn't completed more than two innings in any appearance this season, so he'll presumably be in store for an abbreviated outing before Abbott likely enters the game and covers several frames.

Reds' Andrew Abbott: Saddled with 10th loss
Andrew Abbott (10-10) took the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on six hits and one walk over five innings against the Royals. He struck out four.Abbott didn't pitch particularly poorly but was mainly done in by the ninth spot in the order, with Dairon Blanco leading off the third with a bunt single and a stolen base that eventually led to the initial run, then a homer by Blanco in the fifth that pushed the deficit to three. An additional run scored on a sac fly, and Abbott's outing was over after five innings. Sunday marked the eighth consecutive outing for Abbott in which he's alternated allowing two runs or less followed immediately by four runs or more. It was also his fourth loss in five decisions after winning eight of his previous 10. If the trend holds, Abbott would notch a quality start during his next outing, and the matchup seems to fall in line with that possibility as he's next slated for a road matchup against the punchless Pirates.

Andrew Abbott (9-9) took the loss Wednesday, coughing up six runs on six hits -- including three home runs -- and three walks over five innings as the Cincinnati Reds fell 6-4 to the Marlins. He struck out seven.The Ks helped salvage some fantasy value for Abbott, but the southpaw continues to have trouble keeping the ball in the yard, serving up a pair of solo shots to Jake Burger and a grand slam to Derek Hill. Abbott's been tagged for eight homers over his last five starts and 23.1 innings, stumbling to a 6.56 ERA and 1.93 WHIP over that stretch. He'll try to turn things around in his next outing, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Cardinals.
