Cincinnati Reds sign outfielder Dwight Smith Jr

The Cincinnati Reds were busy on Monday. Early in the day the team traded closer Raisel Iglesias, along with sending cash to Los Angeles and in return the Reds picked up right-handed reliever Noé Ramirez and a player to be named later. But that was just a teaser for what was to come. Ok, just kidding, but it wasn’t the final move of the day. In the evening, Dwight Smith Jr. announced on twitter that he had signed with the organization. Later in the evening, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic clarified that it was a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training.
