Reds have claimed IF Scooter Gennett off of waivers from the Brewers

Scooter Gennett hit a respectable .263/.317/.412 last year. Doesn't typically take a lot of walks & is mediocre defensively.

Gennett could be a good bench guy, if he'll be happy in that role. He's only played 2B since 2011 (except 1 inning in RF).
