CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati Reds are bringing up top prospect
The 23-year-old outfielder will bat second and play center field against the San Francisco Giants on Friday night. He was ranked as the No. 6 overall prospect in baseball entering this season by ESPN's Keith Law.
Cincinnati selected his contract from Louisville, optioned right-hander Matt Bowman to the Triple-A farm team and transferred second baseman Scooter Gennett to the 60-day injured list.
Senzel was the second overall pick in the 2016 amateur draft from Tennessee and signed for a $6.
