| News: Ludwick is not in the starting lineup Thursday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. | Impact: Chris Heisey appears to be gaining the upper hand in the ongoing battle for playing time in left field, as he'll be starting for the 10th time in 12 games Thursday night. Ludwick has only started five of the last 12 games, while three of those starts have come against left-handed pitching.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Ludwick homered and then hit a two-run double in the ninth inning in Sunday's win over the Yankees. | Impact: It appears that the elbow that kept Ludwick out the last two days is fine. We'll see how that affects the Reds' lineup now that they are going back home and without the DH. Chris Heisey has become a little bit more established in the last 10 days or so, but it's uncertain how much of that is due to Ludwick being hurt.(RotoWire, ) |

Instead, Miguel Cairo got the nod Friday and Mike Costanzo is the DH on Saturday.(RotoWire, ) |
