The Cincinnati Reds roster currently sits at 57 players. That number will have to be trimmed down to 30 by the end of summer camp. Several players are locked, provided they’re healthy, to make the cut, but a few non-roster invites could sneak onto the Reds roster. Who’s most likely to make the cut?
Of the 57 players in camp, 17 are non-roster invitees, as the Reds invited every member of its 40-man roster to Cincinnati and Mason. So, what exactly is a non-roster invitee? Essentially it’s a player who’s not a team’s 40-man roster, but received an invite to spring training, or in this case, summer camp.
