Sal Romano clears waivers, gets invite to Reds spring training

Error 0:

When the Cincinnati Reds officially signed right-handed reliever Pedro Strop it meant that they needed a 40-man roster spot. That led to the organization designating right-handed pitcher Sal Romano for assignment. Time passed and no one put in a claim on him, in a complete shocker to this particular writer, and the Reds outrighted Romano to Triple-A Louisville. The team also extended him an invitation as a non-roster player to big league spring training.

After a solid rookie season back in 2017 where he posted a 4.45 ERA in 16 starts for the Cincinnati Reds, Sal Romano has struggled a bit in each of the last two seasons in the Majors.
