The Reds outrighted second baseman/outfielder Tony Renda off their 40-man roster and assigned him to Triple-A, the team announced. The Reds now have 38 players and two open spots on their 40-man roster.
Renda came to Cincinnati last winter as part of the four-player trade package the Yankees sent to the Reds in exchange for Aroldis Chapman. He made his big league debut this season and posted a .463 OPS over his first 67 plate appearances in the Show. Originally a second-round pick for the Nationals in 2012, Renda has a .289/.361/.378 slash line over 2347 career minor league PA in the Cincinnati, New York and Washington farm systems.

Looks like the Reds are trying to compete with the Padres, Diamondbacks and Angels for the title of worst run organization in baseball.

Because of Tony Renda ? Wow. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Since Jockerty took office job, Williams is doing much better with our 40 man roster

Yeah..Williams is doing a wonderful job, even listening to offers for Hamilton is a ludacris statement and renda is not a bad player

The Reds are three years away from contending. Hamilton will be overpriced and the reds can’t afford it. They should listen on every body and trade Votto as soon as they can. No one claimed her Renda so that should also tell you something
