As expected, the Reds trimmed the roster today. Joey Votto was optioned to Triple-A Louisville. Homer Bailey, Michael Gosling, Dan Conway, and Ryan Hanigan were reassigned to the minor league camp. Kerry Ligtenberg and Brian Meadows were released:
"By doing it with both of those guys, at least it gives them two weeks and maybe someone can [sign them]," Krivsky said. "We just felt like there were other people ahead of them. Let's do it earlier than later and be fair to them. They've both been around and we respect their status."
Cincinnati now has 43 active players remaining in camp.
So Bubba has survived the second round of cuts.
