So John Lamb has been designated for assignment. Lamb is out of options, but with the lefty having undergone recent back surgery, I would think that there’s a pretty good chance that he won’t be claimed and will stick around in the Reds organization.

Ariel Hernandez is a 24-year old right-handed pitcher who was pitching in independent ball as recently as last year.
