LOS ANGELES -- Dodgers pitcher Chris Reed was designated for assignment on Friday, completing a long fall for the 2011 first-round draft pick.
Friday's transaction — the other half of claiming Preston Guilmet from the Rays — doesn't necessarily mean the end as a Dodger for Reed, who was just removed from the 40-man roster. It's possible the 25-year-old left-hander could clear waivers and then be outrighted back to the minors.
Reed was 2-2 with a 5.97 ERA in 24 relief appearances across Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City this season, with 22 walks and 21 strikeouts in 34u2154 innings.
