CINCINNATI -- The Reds reinstated reliever Blake Wood from the paternity list on Friday. To make room on the 25-man roster, outfielder Kyle Waldrop was optioned to Triple-A Louisville.
A name missing from that transaction, Jose Peraza, was somewhat telling. The 22-year-old appears to be staying in the big leagues for an extended look. Entering Friday, he's played 11 games over two callups.
"I'm not confident there's enough at-bats for him to be here the rest of the year. But at least for the time being, I know he helps our team in a number of different ways," Reds manager Bryan Price said.
