EDGE Analysis

Adcock split time between Triple-A and the majors in the Reds organization. He pitched well in the minors, posting a solid 2.96 ERA with Triple-A Louisville, but he unfortunately was hit hard in the majors, as evidenced by his 6.00 ERA with the Reds. The 28-year-old is coming off of Tommy John surgery in August, so he won't be available to pitch for most if not all of the 2016 season.

Cincinnati Reds pitcher Nate Adcock will require Tommy John surgery on his injured elbow, according to the Dayton Daily News. Adcock experienced tightness in his triceps following Sunday's outing and further testing revealed a complete tear of the ulnar collateral ligament, putting his 2016 season in jeopardy in addition to missing the remainder of 2015.

The Cincinnati Reds placed pitcher Nate Adcock on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with a right elbow injury. Keyvius Sampson was called up from Triple-A Louisville to take Adcock's place on the roster.

Adcock was promoted from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday. Adcock will take the roster spot of Jumbo Diaz, who was optioned to Louisville in a corresponding move. However, the Reds have yet to announce how a 40-man roster spot will be recreated for the 27-year-old reliever, who will provide assistance in the middle innings in the short term.

Adcock has agreed to a minor league deal with the Reds, Chris Cotillo of MLB Daily Dish reports. Adcock chose free agency after he was assigned to triple-A by Texas, and must have felt the Reds gave him the best chance to make it back into the majors in the near future. In seven appearances in the majors, Adcock posted an ERA of 4.5 and a WHIP of 1.6.

Adcock elected free agency after being assigned to Triple-A Round Rock, Rangers vice president John Blake announced. Adcock will be looking for minor league deals that offer him the best shot of making the major league team, but offers will likely be slim. Adcock has a career 1.476 career WHIP and hasn't shown he can be anywhere above replacement level in his career so far.

Adcock was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday. His banishment to the minors clears the way for the promotion of Robbie Ross, who will take over Yu Darvish's (elbow) spot in the rotation. Adcock had given up five earned runs over 10 innings out of the Texas bullpen.

Rangers purchased the contract of RHP Nate Adcock from Triple-A Round Rock. Adcock is taking the roster spot left vacant by Wednesday's Joakim Soria trade. The 26-year-old right-hander has posted a 2.76 ERA and 0.98 WHIP in 16 1/3 innings this season at the Triple-A level and will now pitch in a middle relief role for the Rangers.
