  • Claimed by Cincy
    The Reds claimed Soto off waivers and optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Friday.

    Advice: The 23-year-old was designated for assignment by Baltimore earlier in the week and will now join his third team of 2024. Soto has 10 appearances at the Triple-A level this season and has a .780 OPS in 32 at-bats. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
     
  • Breezes through one rehab inning
    Bolton (illness) fired a scoreless inning of relief in Triple-A Tacoma's loss to Las Vegas on Thursday, issuing a walk and recording two strikeouts.

    Advice: Bolton jumped into game action for the first time since April 5 and was exceedingly sharp, firing 11 of his 14 pitches for strikes. The right-hander appears to be over his recent bout with kidney stones, and given his success Thursday, he could well be activated when first eligible Sunday as previously suggested by general manager Justin Hollander.

  • Makes first rehab appearance
    Snider (knee) allowed an earned run on two hits over one inning in a rehab relief appearance for Triple-A Tacoma against Las Vegas on Thursday. He struck out two.

    Advice: Snider landed 13 of 19 pitches for strikes in his first time on a mound since taking a comebacker to his left knee against the Brewers on April 7. His ability to get through one frame with seemingly no setbacks likely leaves him poised to make just one more rehab appearance before potentially being activated when first eligible Tuesday.
