As the World Series comes to an end, Major League Baseball teams must have their 40-man rosters down to an actual number of 40. When the season is still on-going, players can be on the 60-day disabled list, but once play is over those players come off and teams can’t hide them. The Cincinnati Reds made their moves on Friday evening to get down to 40-players by outrighting seven guys.

Here is the list of the players who were outrighted off of the 40-man roster:

RHP Nate Adcock

RHP Collin Balester

RHP Josh Smith

LHP David Holmberg

OF Brennan Boesch

OF Jason Bourgeois

INF/OF Kristopher Negron

There is not a single surprise from the list. All of the guys, with the exception of David Holmberg, are older guys who didn’t exactly perform all too well in their time at the big league level. Holmberg has youth on his side, but he’s out of options and has struggled mightily in his career.

As the offseason continues there will probably be a few more guys outrighted/waived as the Reds need to open spots for new additions to the 40-man roster to protect players from the Rule 5 draft as well as possible free agent signings.
