Cincinnati Reds call up José De León, DFA Brooks Raley

The Cincinnati Reds made two roster moves at noon today, optioning Tejay Antone and Josh VanMeter to Prasco Park in order to trim their roster from 30 down to 28 as the deadline arrived for all teams in Major League Baseball. But that wasn’t the last time they would make moves on the day. Right-handed pitcher, and owner of what is now the best mustache game in all of the big leagues, José De León has been called up to join the team. He will take the place of left-handed pitcher Brooks Raley on the roster, who was designated for assignment.
