Reds make September call-ups that will help shape Chase Burns' finish

The Cincinnati Reds activated left-handed pitcher Brandon Williamson and infielder Juan Brito as their two allowed September call-ups. Williamson returns from a shoulder injury that sidelined him for months, though his recent rehab appearances showed a 5.94 ERA over five starts. The Reds plan to use Williamson in relief of All-Star Chase Burns, who will operate as an opener with significantly reduced pitch counts for the remainder of the season to manage his workload after exceeding his career high in innings pitched.
