All three of his long balls have come since Aug. 22, though Romine has still hit just .171 in that span with four RBI and three runs scored.

EDGE Analysis

Romine will take a seat for the series opener after he caught three of the Reds' last four games, going 3-for-9 during that stretch. Though Romine is batting just .179 since joining Cincinnati at the beginning of August, he may have the upper hand on playing time behind the dish over Chuckie Robinson, who is catching Monday's contest.

EDGE Analysis

With Tyler Stephenson (collarbone) and Aramis Garcia (finger) stuck on the injured list and with Michael Papierski getting optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Romine looks to be the Reds' No. 1 backstop at the moment.

The Reds activated Romine on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Cincinnati acquired Romine in a deadline deal Tuesday with the Cardinals, but the team waited two days before properly clearing room for him on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster.

Romine was traded from the Cardinals to the Reds on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations.

EDGE Analysis

Romine signed with St. Louis in June after beginning the season with the Angels, and he'll now be moving on to the Reds. The 33-year-old has a .428 OPS in 37 plate appearances this year and should provide organization depth behind the plate for Cincinnati.
