Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Sent outright to Triple-A on Friday
Rodriguez was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Friday.
Rodriguez was a non-factor in the organization last season due to a hamstring injury, and given his lack of prospect shine, the Reds opted to send him off the 40-man roster. He's only 24, so there's some room for development, although his strikeout woes could keep him from becoming anything more than an organizational depth piece.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Activated from DL on Thursday
Rodriguez (hamstring) was activated from the 60-day disabled list Thursday.
Rodriguez missed virtually the entire season due to a nagging hamstring injury, but now that the season is over, the Reds can place him back on the 40-man roster without any consequences. The 24-year-old will look to vie for an Opening Day roster spot once his hamstring is back to full health, though he could spend a bit more time in the minors if he doesn't impress during spring training.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Resumes rehab assignment
Rodriguez (hamstring) has resumed his rehab assignment with High-A Daytona.
He resumed the rehab assignment on Aug. 5 after being shut down in mid-July after aggravating the hamstring injury. Rodriguez has hit safely in all four rehab games this time around but remains a low-end option if he were to be activated and join the big league mix.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Transferred to 60-day DL
Rodriguez (hamstring) was transferred to the 60-day DL on Sunday, MLB.com's Mark Sheldon reports.
Rodriguez doesn't appear to be too close to a return, as his recent rehab stint was cut short due to "aches or pains" in his leg. In the meantime, the Reds will move the outfielder off the 40-man roster in order to free up space for an extra reliever.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Rehab progress slowed
Rodriguez (hamstring) has had to stop playing games in extended spring training. "His legs got tired and heavy, and he had some aches or pains and whatever," manager Bryan Price said. "He wasn't able to carry the workload we had assigned him. From the last injury report, he's feeling much better as of yesterday. He should be re-invested in playing in some games soon."
The Reds still have to decide what to do with Rodriguez once he returns from the DL, being out of options. This setback at least buys them some time.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Could begin rehab assignment soon
Rodriguez (hamstring) has resumed taking batting practice and could begin a rehab assignment this week, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Rodriguez could have an extended rehab assignment, given both the time off and the fact that he's out of options, thus giving the Reds more time to delay their decision.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Not close to coming off DL
Rodriguez (hamstring) is still having some tenderness in his hamstring and is not close to coming off the disabled list, Zach Buchanan of Cincinnati.com reports.
Rodriguez injured his hamstring right at the end of spring training and still hasn't been able to get back to rehabbing his hamstring. Manager Bryan Price said that he doesn't see the outfielder beginning a rehab appearance until he's able to move around without any issues. When he does return, however, there's a good chance that he'll stick on the big club since he's out of options.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Placed on the 15-day DL
Rodriguez (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day DL by the Reds, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
The move is retroactive to March 27. It helps buy some time for the Reds, as Rodriguez is out of options. This allows them to send him on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville and get more at-bats there. Eventually, they'll have to decide whether to fish or cut bait with him this season.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Likely to start season on DL
Rodriguez (hamstring) will likely start the season on the disabled list, C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
The outfielder has missed four games due to the ailment, and it seems that he'll start the season on the shelf due to how close to the season he got injured. Because of this development, Jose Peraza and Jordan Pacheco may find their way onto the Opening Day roster for the Reds.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Dealing with hamstring injury
Rodriguez has a left hamstring injury that has kept him out of the lineup for four days, C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Seemingly on the roster bubble, the 23-year-old Rodriguez is now uncertain to be ready for Opening Day. His injury could perhaps help Jake Cave earn a roster spot, but the Reds probably don't want to keep a fifth outfielder, given that infielders Ivan De Jesus and Jose Peraza are also capable of playing multiple outfield spots. If he clears waivers (he's out of options) Rodriguez seems most likely start his season at Triple-A Louisville, where he posted a .269/.308/.429 slash line in 85 games last season.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Out of options
Rodriguez has had a poor spring training campaign, but is out of options and can't be sent down without clearing waivers.
Rodriguez signed a $2.5 million signing bonus long ago as a 16-year old, but never has had a dominant minor league season. He's now 23, young enough to still have a leap, but any decision to keep him now would be based on faith without evidence.

Reds' Yorman Rodriguez: Potential part of the Reds' left field platoon
Rodriguez has a chance to be part of the Reds' left field platoon. He's competing with Scott Schebler, Adam Duvall and Jesse Winker.
Rodriguez hasn't really done much to demonstrate he's ready for the job, posting a .737 OPS in Triple-A Louisville last year. He has the benefit of being on the 40-man roster, but he's never had a dominant season in the minors, just once topping an .800 OPS.
