Cincinnati Reds outright Derek Dietrich, three others to AAA Louisville

As the baseball calendars flip to November, it becomes full-on transaction season. Rosters get shuffled immediately as some players reach free agency, but just as important is the kind of roster maintenance required to free up places for the younger minor league players who need roster spots of their own to stay within the system.

Unfortunately, that often comes at the expense of more established veterans, and that’s exactly what happened with the Cincinnati Reds today. As the club announced today, four players cleared waivers and were outrighted to AAA Louisville, highlighted by Derek Dietrich.
