The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Mey has managed to hold the opposition to one run over 6.2 innings during his latest stint in the majors, but that's in spite of nine hits and seven walks. The Reds will announce a corresponding roster move prior to Friday's game in Arizona.

Reds' Luis Mey: Back with big club
Rotowire
The Reds recalled Mey from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.
He will take the roster spot vacated by left-hander Taylor Rogers, who was traded to the Pirates on Wednesday. Mey's stay in the big leagues could be brief, as the Reds will need to free another spot on the 26-man active roster once the newly-acquired Ke'Bryan Hayes officially reports to the club.

Reds' Luis Mey: Returns to minors
Rotowire
The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Mey was called up Friday after fellow reliever Scott Barlow was placed on the paternity list, but with Barlow back with the club Saturday, Mey is heading back to Louisville. The righty didn't get into Friday's contest but has a good chance of being back with the big club at some point later this season if a spot in the bullpen opens up.

Reds' Luis Mey: Back in big leagues
Rotowire
The Reds recalled Mey from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.
Mey showed the good and the bad during his first big-league stint in May, yielding one run with a 12:3 K:BB over his first 8.1 innings before stumbling in his next 4.2 frames as he allowed five runs with a 2:4 K:BB. The hard-throwing reliever will aim for more consistency this time around.

Reds' Luis Mey: Sent back to Louisville
Rotowire
The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.
After starting his MLB career with a 1.80 ERA and 0.90 WHIP through 10 innings, Mey has given up four earned runs in three frames across his last three appearances. He'll now head back to the minor leagues in order to right the ship, and the Reds will presumably make a corresponding addition to their bullpen ahead of Friday's series opener against the Cubs.
Mey struck out two and didn't allow a baserunner in a scoreless inning during Thursday's 7-1 win against the White Sox.
Mey has allowed just one run with an 11:3 K:BB across 7.1 innings since being promoted May 1. The 23-year-old righty has recorded one hold but has mostly pitched in lower-leverage spots so far, though he could work his way into the high-leverage mix if he can continue delivering strong performances. Journeyman Emilio Pagan has taken over the closer role with Alexis Diaz demoted to Triple-A, and if Pagan stumbles, Mey could have an outside shot at seeing save chances later in the season.

Reds' Luis Mey: Sent to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Reds optioned Mey to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
Cincinnati thought highly enough of the 23-year-old righty to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft by adding him to the 40-man roster over the winter, but Mey -- who has yet to pitch above the Double-A level -- was never a threat to win a spot in the Reds' Opening Day bullpen. He'll get his first taste of Triple-A to begin the 2025 season after he turned in a 3.44 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 63:43 K:BB over 55 innings between High-A Dayton and Double-A Chattanooga in 2024.
