Nick Senzel is heading back to join the Louisville Bats. C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic was the first to report the news earlier on Monday afternoon.
The Cincinnati Reds top prospect has missed most of the month of May while dealing with the side effects of vertigo. He last played for Louisville on May 3rd. He took his first plate appearance in Norfolk, but then he began to feel dizzy and left the game. After taking time off and getting treatment he was sent out to the facility in Goodyear where he began to resume baseball activities on May 17th. Several days ago he began to play in games in extended spring training and is now ready to re-join the Louisville Bats.
Mother nature may not be playing nice, though. The current forecast in Louisville is for an 80% chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening. Hopefully she will cooperate because Nick Senzel sounds like he’s itching to get back on the field.
Back and ready #gotime
