Ben Weber

9/12/2005

Designated for assignment last Tuesday, Weber accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Louisville on Monday. It's unlikely that the veteran righthander will return to the Reds this season, after posting an 8.03 ERA in 10 relief appearances for Cincinnati.

Weber was designated for assignment. In 10 relief appearances this year with the Reds, he allowed 20 hits and nine walks in 12.1 innings, leading to an 8.03 ERA.

7/21/2005

Weber is nearing a return to the Cincinnati Reds' bullpen, and he should be back with the team within the next week or two. The veteran righthander, who has been sidelined since May 8 with a bulging disc in his neck, will begin a minor league rehab assignment with Class-A Dayton on Thursday.

Battling a bulging disc in his neck, Weber has been placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Cincinnati Reds. The veteran reliever, who surrendered two runs on two hits and three walks in just one inning of work in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, will be sidelined indefinitely. Filling the spot in the bullpen will be Todd Coffey.

Weber is in his first season with the Reds after spending the majority of his major league career with the Angels. He has struggled in 10 relief appearances this year, posting an 8.03 ERA.
