Ricky Karcher: Cut loose by Arizona
The Diamondbacks released Karcher on Sunday.
Karcher made his MLB debut out of the Cincinnati bullpen last June before being pushed off the 40-man roster a month later. He caught on with the Diamondbacks on a minor-league deal in November, but he never built much momentum for a spot in the Opening Day bullpen before he was assigned to Reno during spring training. Karcher struggled mightily over his 21 outings with Reno prior to his release, posting a 8.46 ERA and 31:31 K:BB in 22.1 innings.

The 25-year-old walked one batter without allowing a hit, but he'll ultimately head back to Louisville, where he's produced an inflated 9.27 ERA and 2.58 WHIP with a 13.8 BB/9 over 22.1 innings in 22 appearances.

Reds' Ricky Karcher: Secures save in MLB debut
Karcher picked up the save in Monday's 5-4 victory over Kansas City, tossing a scoreless inning in which he allowed zero hits and one walk. He didn't record a strikeout.
Alexis Diaz worked the previous two days, and Buck Farmer pitched 1.2 innings to send the game into the 10th inning, so the freshly recalled Karcher got the save opportunity Monday in his first MLB appearance. The 25-year-old walked the first batter he faced but retired three straight to end the game. Karcher has electric stuff, but he's had trouble commanding it at Triple-A Louisville, posting a 9.27 ERA and 31:34 K:BB over 22.1 innings.
