The Reds have until noon to trim the roster to 28 players

Today is that day of the 2020 season when Major League Baseball teams must trim their active rosters from 30 players to 28 players. While we’ve heard rumors of the agreement being in place, it wasn’t official that the rosters would remain at 28 players for the rest of the year until late on Wednesday night.

Following agreement with @MLB_PLAYERS and approval by @MLB Clubs, 28-player rosters will remain in place from tomorrow through end of 2020 season, including the Postseason. Doubleheaders will allow a 29th player, and taxi squads may increase from 3 to 5.
