MLB Note - Cincinnati Reds Herrera, Dilson

Jul 27, 2017 - 1:57 AM 2B Dilson Herrera likely would have appeared with the Reds this season but will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery to remove bone chips and his next games won't take place until next season. The Reds acquired Herrera at last season's Aug. 1 trade deadline when they sent OF Jay Bruce to the New York Mets. This season, he was batting .264 with seven home runs and 42 RBI in 68 games with Triple-A Louisville. Herrera experienced enough shoulder trouble that he was unable to play defense in major league camp during spring training, though he did so in minor league camp. "Probably the most important thing is that he gets it taken care of," Reds manager Bryan Price said. "I still think we've got a really nice player here that needed to have this correction done."
