The Reds recalled Maxwell from Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

The Reds optioned Maxwell to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.
Maxwell will cede his spot on the active roster and in the Cincinnati bullpen to right-hander Pierce Johnson (elbow), who was reinstated from the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. During his latest stint in the majors, Maxwell made nine appearances and submitted a 7.00 ERA, 2.11 WHIP and 8:8 K:BB in nine innings while gathering one save and one hold.

Maxwell pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 5-3 extra-innings win over the Padres.
Maxwell's last outing was a four-run meltdown versus the Cardinals on Friday. He bounced back well this time, locking down his first career save in the 11th inning after Tejay Antone failed to do so in the 10th. Maxwell has a 13.50 ERA through six innings this season, but he's tossed three scoreless outings out of six appearances, offset by a pair of four-run disasters. He's not a candidate for high-leverage work under normal circumstances even as the Reds use a committee to handle closing duties until Emilio Pagan (hamstring) returns. Maxwell is the ninth pitcher to log a save for Cincinnati this season.

The Reds recalled Maxwell from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Maxwell gave up four earned runs in just one inning during his season debut May 1, but he's since fired 7.1 shutout innings at Louisville while tallying 10 strikeouts. He'll get another look in the Reds' bullpen as a result, and the team will clear room for him on the active roster by sending down Connor Phillips and Jose Franco.

The Reds optioned Maxwell to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.
Maxwell's latest stint in the majors lasted just one day, with the right-hander going unused out of the bullpen Sunday in the Reds' 1-0 loss to the Pirates. He'll give up his spot on the 26-man active roster to right-hander Chase Petty, who was recalled from Louisville ahead of his start Monday against the Cubs.
