UPDATE: Reds made the move official and announced that Cingrani was optioned to Louisville.

A Reds roster move has yet to be announced but 3B/1B Neftali Soto is in the clubhouse on Saturday. He has been called up from Triple-A Louisville.

Soto is batting .269/.310/.388 with three homers and 16 RBIs in 33 games. He has played 18 games at first base but has been developing his skills as a third baseman, where he’s played 16 games.

I will have more with Soto later. To read my MLB.com notebook on him, click here.

Soto will wear №50.

With LHP Tony Cingrani not getting another turn in the rotation after pitching Friday, he is likely to be optioned to Louisville.

It was a mostly impressive six starts in the Majors for Cingrani, who was 2–0 with a 3.27 ERA, nine walks and 41 strikeouts.
