The Cincinnati Reds have added John Farrell as a scout.
It will be Farrell's first job since the Red Sox dismissed him as their manager last October with one year left on his contract. He posted a 432-378 record over five seasons with Boston, including a World Series championship in 2013 and two last-place finishes.
The 55-year-old Farrell is expected to report to the Reds spring training camp in Goodyear, Arizona, on Thursday.
