The Cincinnati Reds have made a cornucopia of roster moves this afternoon as they head west to open up a road trip against the St. Louis Cardinals. The team optioned infielder Max Schrock and left-handed reliever Cionel Pérez to the alternate training site (Schrock) and the taxi squad (Pérez). They’ve called up right-handed relievers Ryan Hendrix and Heath Hembree to replace them on the roster.
This is the first time that Ryan Hendrix has been called up to the Major Leagues. When he enters a game he will be making his big league debut. He was selected in the 5th round out of Texas A&M back in 2016 and has dominated in the minors for the Reds since then.
