Not officially...but he's by far the most talented reliever that Cincy has. Mentally he's not ready yet, but I'd say he's still worth holding on to due to his talent alone. I don't expect him to be all that great, but he's much better than he's pitching.
Releasing Graves was a HUGE mistake. Miley = Dusty = Terrible.
I dumped him in leagues that either had holds or no compelling FA closer on the list....... In leagues that had no options, I benched him for the week.
Weathers got a save tonight. Wagner has been used in the 6th inning as of late. Do not see why you would hold onto him at this point. Weathers is not that goos, but it is pretty obvious that Wagner is not going to close anytime soon and burning a bench slot on him is dubious at best.

When he's the only pitcher who should even be on a ML roster in the Cincy bullpen, I'd say he has a pretty good chance of getting the job back at some point.
He never had it to start with. I do not doubt he is the best pitcher out their, but it seems pretty obvious current Reds management does not want him to close. Maybe when\if Miley gets the axe, btut that mightnot hapen for a couple of months if at all.
Wagner's full of potential but I'm not using a roster spot for him anymore.
If you look at his career, he was great in 2003 (1.66 ERA in 21.2 IP) but hasn't been anything much since (4.70 ERA last season, 5.64 this season). Over the last 82 innings he's pitched, his ERA is 5.05 and he has a 1.59 WHIP.
Roger Angell: I was talking with Bob Gibson and I said: 'Are you always this competitive?' He said: 'Oh, I think so. I got a three-year old daughter, and I've played about 500 games of tic-tac-toe with her and she hasn't beat me yet.'
