Injury Report 8/2 - Adcock to Have TJS

This one is mainly going to read like a simple list of minor league transactions, because it's been another very quiet two weeks on the injury front for the Cincinnati Reds, with the one serious exception of the news that RP Nate Adcock is done for the season (and most of next, most likely) with a torn UCL.  He will have Tommy John surgery on August 4.  Adcock had sucked up 18 low leverage innings for the Reds bullpen over the course of 13 appearances this year.  RP Manny Parra also went back on the DL with a left elbow sprain and hasn't pitched since July 19.  Parra missed over a month earlier this season with a strained neck as well.
