The Cincinnati Reds are bringing back pitcher Buck Farmer on a minor league deal, according to Robert Murray of FanSided.com.

The Atlanta Braves signed Farmer to a minor league deal back in February, but he struggled with their Triple-A affiliate and was released in the middle of April.

Farmer pitched for the Reds from 2022 to 2024, appearing in 176 games with an ERA of 3.68. He is coming off his best season with Cincinnati, where he had an ERA of 3.04 in 61 games.

The Reds have dealt with numerous injuries to their bullpen this season and you can never have too much pitching depth.
