RYAN HENDRIX NEWS

Finishing strong spring Hendrix struck out the side in the fourth inning of Saturday's spring game against Seattle.

Impact Hendrix made his fifth consecutive scoreless appearance, including fanning the side in his last two. "He's done a good job attacking the zone," manager Torey Lovullo told Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. "It's a three-pitch mix. It's one of those situations where you want to continue giving him opportunities so we can evaluate him. He had a great day today." Hendrix is in the mix for one of the bullpen jobs still up for grabs. The right-hander, who mixes a mid-90s fastball with a slider and changeup, has walked two and struck out 14 over eight Cactus League innings.

Lands with Diamondbacks Hendrix signed a minor-league contract with the Diamondbacks on Tuesday, which includes an invitation to spring training, the pitcher announced.

Elects free agency Hendrix elected free agency Thursday, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hendrix was designated for assignment by the Reds last week and cleared waivers, but he'll choose to test things out in free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Louisville. The right-hander made nine relief appearances in the majors during the 2022 campaign and posted a 5.40 ERA and 1.80 WHIP in 8.1 innings.

Clears waivers Hendrix cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Friday.

Impact Hendrix appeared in nine games this season, giving up five runs in 8.1 innings. He now owns a 5.85 ERA and 1.60 WHIP in 40 innings at the highest level, so it's no surprise he didn't generate much interest on the waiver wire.

Sent to Triple-A The Reds optioned Hendrix to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

Impact His demotion clears room on the 26-man active roster for right-hander T.J. Zeuch, whose contract was selected from Triple-A in advance of his scheduled start Wednesday versus the Mets. Hendrix has covered 8.1 innings out of the Reds bullpen this season, giving up five earned runs on nine hits and six walks.

Headed back to Louisville The Reds returned Hendrix to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

Impact Since Hendrix joined the Reds last weekend as a replacement player with Dauri Moreta (illness) going on the COVID-19-related injured list in a corresponding move, Cincinnati won't have to expose the 27-year-old right-hander to waivers while he moves off the 40-man roster and back to Louisville. Moreta has been reinstated from the COVID-19 IL in advance of the Reds' next game Friday against the Cardinals, leaving no room in the bullpen for Hendrix.

Impact Hendrix's first five appearances of the year came in the majors, but he allowed an 8.10 ERA and 2.70 WHIP in 3.1 innings. He'll attempt to prove himself in Louisville but is unlikely to be a high-leverage option if he returns to the big leagues at some point.
