Cincinnati Reds cut 5 players from camp; Joey Votto plays in minor league gamesThe Reds made their second round of roster cuts in Major League camp Saturday, narrowing the field for a couple of positional battles.
Nick Solak - Reassigned to minor-league campSolak was reassigned to minor-league spring training Saturday.
ImpactSolak was acquired for cash considerations in November, but any hopes of him duplicating Brandon Drury's success from last season seems to have gone out the window with this move. Solak's career .252/.327/.372 slash line isn't good but is far from terrible, so if he does get a run of games for the Reds at some point, he could have fantasy value in at least deeper leagues. The fact that the Reds -- who don't exactly possess a roster packed with proven talent -- took him out of Opening Day consideration with nearly three weeks to go suggests his stock is quite low right now.

Joey Votto - Appears in minor-league spring gameVotto (shoulder/biceps) saw plate appearances Friday in a minor-league game, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
ImpactIn one of the plate appearances, Votto was able to draw one of his trademark walks. The former MVP is working his way back from surgery to repair his left bicep along with a torn rotator cuff in August. There's still no timetable as to when Votto will be able to rejoin the Reds, but it's a positive development that he's getting action against live pitching at this point in the spring.
