Monday afternoon the Cincinnati Reds announced that they had purchased the contracts of reliever Cam Bedrosian and outfielder Tyler Naquin. Both players were non-roster invitees to spring training. Adding them to the 40-man roster essentially means that they have made the opening day roster.
Cam Bedrosian has posted a 3.08 ERA over the last two seasons with the Los Angeles Angels in 76.0 innings pitched with 28 walks and 75 strikeouts. This spring with the Reds he allowed more runs than hits – and all three of the hits he allowed went over the fence for home runs.
