Nate Jones makes Reds roster, 5 others reassigned to “alternate roster”

The Cincinnati Reds announced five roster moves late on Saturday night, but the biggest one was the announcement that the team was committed to adding right-handed reliever Nate Jones to the roster on or before opening day. Jones likely had an opt-out, that he could have taken today – leaving the Reds the choice to add him or not in order to keep him around or allow him to perhaps pursue other opportunities.

There were five players on the player pool roster that were moved to the “alternate roster” site, which will be at Prasco Park in Mason once the regular season begins.
