Tony Cingrani was scheduled to start against the San Francisco Giants on Monday.

The Reds decided to push him back a day.  Cingrani did not know why when asked Monday morning.

Rasiel Iglesias will start against the Giants instead with Paul Maholm following him.  Both are in the mix for the starting rotation, with two permanent spots and one temporary spots (Homer Bailey's) up for grabs.

LHP David Holmberg was optioned to Louisville.  He was one of the candidates for the rotation.

RHP Dylan Axelrod, RHP Carlos Contreras, RHP Daniel Corcino an LHP Ryan Dennick, all of whom pitched for the Reds in 2014 were also optioned to Louisville.

LHP Amir Garrett was optioned to High A Daytona Beach.

C Ramon Cabrera, RHP Jon Moscot and OF Felix Perez were optioned to minor league camp for assignment.
