Takahashi signed a minor-league contract with the Reds on Friday that includes an invitation to spring training.
Takahashi didn't pitch in 2020 after he was unable to get back from his native Brazil, and he was outrighted to Triple-A Reno by the Diamondbacks in late October. The right-hander will get to work with Cincinnati's major-league training staff during spring training and will attempt to make his big-league debut at some point in 2021.
