Alfredo Rodriguez: Released by Reds
Rotowire
Rodriguez was released by the Reds on Saturday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Rodriguez was signed for $7 million out of Cuba back in 2016 but failed to produce even an average batting line at any of his minor-league stops. As a 27-year-old in Triple-A last season, he hit a modest .283/.333/.354 with just three homers and two steals in 117 games.

Reds' Alfredo Rodriguez: Added to 60-man pool
Rotowire
Rodriguez will be a part of the Reds' 60-man player pool this season.
The 26-year-old shortstop is not on the 40-man roster and has only played 23 career games at Triple-A, hitting .169 with zero home runs. Known more for his glove than his bat -- he has never been a league average hitter by wRC+ -- Rodriguez is unlikely to make much of an impact in the majors this season.
