Astros: A.J. Reed is optioned down to minor league camp

We can now narrow the battle for the 25th spot on the Astros roster down to two players. This is assuming that Tony Sipp is the 24th man. According to Jake Kaplan, the Astros have optioned A.J. Reed down to minor league camp. He was part of the mix for the first base job while Yuli Gurriel recovers and serves his suspension.

It was a tight battle between Reed, Tyler White, and J.D. Davis. Reed had a decent spring considering how he got off to a rough start.
