The Reds have designated Andrew Brackman for assignment, Tom Groeschen of the
Cincinnati Enquirer reports (on Twitter). In related moves, the Reds acquired
Jonathan Broxton, placed Bill Bray on the disabled list, and called up Todd
Redmond.
Brackman has spent the 2012 season in the Reds' minor league system, posting
a combined 6.80 ERA with 6.8 K/9 and 6.1 BB/9 in 49 innings at Class A and
Triple-A. Cincinnati signed Brackman to a Major League deal in January.
