Reds DFA 6-Foot-4 Lefty for Assignment
The Cincinnati Reds have designated pitcher Kent Emanuel for assignment after he made his debut with the team on Monday.
The Cincinnati Reds have decided to move on from pitcher Kent Emanuel, designating him for assignment. This move comes shortly after Emanuel made his season debut for the Reds, allowing two runs over five innings pitched while striking out four batters. Despite the loss, Emanuel's performance was solid. The 34-year-old lefty, who spent most of his career in the minors, has a 45-38 record and a 4.84 ERA in 186 minor league games across 11 seasons.
In his three MLB seasons with the Astros, Marlins, and Reds, Emanuel boasts a 1-1 record, 29 strikeouts, and a 4.46 ERA. With Emanuel now on the waiver wire, other teams with a need for additional pitching depth may consider claiming him.
