AI Summary

The Reds sent catcher P.J. Higgins outright to Triple-A Louisville after removing him from the 40-man roster to make room for pitcher Chris Paddack.

Higgins can refuse the assignment and become a free agent if he wishes. He was jettisoned from the 40-man roster on Wednesday to make room for Chris Paddack, since the Reds had earlier activated Jose Trevino from the injured list to be their main backup catcher.
