Reds Release Donald Lutz

By Jeff Todd [June 3, 2015 at 4:49pm CDT]

The Reds have released first baseman/outfielder Donald Lutz, the club announced. His 40-man spot was needed for the promotion of Ivan DeJesus Jr., who is filling in for the injured Marlon Byrd.

Lutz entered the year rated as Cincinnati’s 28th-best prospect, in the eyes of Baseball America, after reaching as high as 16th on that list in prior seasons. As C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer notes on Twitter, Lutz underwent Tommy John surgery a month ago.

While he’s only seen 113 largely unsuccessful plate appearances in the big leagues, and was off to a rough start this year prior to his surgery, Lutz has generally put up appealing batting lines throughout his minor league career. His primary strength is in the power department, and he owns a cumulative MiLB slugging percentage of .470.

Lutz is most notable, of course, for being the first major league ballplayer who was developed in Germany. While he was born in the United States, his family moved to Germany when he was just one year old, and he played there until signing as an international free agent back in 2007.

Ha, precisely. I got mad for about 2 seconds after last night's game ... then I realized it was a big win for the Reds. Cueto proved he's not seriously injured (and looked really good for the most part) and we didn't go on a 4-game winning streak and fool our dense front office into thinking we're legit contenders. If all goes according to plan, Cueto will remain healthy and the Reds will deal him ASAFP. Leake too. Chapman as well.

No, it's the fact that you're "claiming" that he muffed the ball. GG defenders lose the ball in the lights too. Has nothing to do with skill or effort.

I didn't see it but Brantley described it like it was a routine play but Howard played it really badly and even tossed it to hamels on the wrong side of him. Said Howard broke towards first off the bat like he completely misread it.

FWIW, Brantley is saying it's NOT an injury. They sent him out there to warm up to give Giles more time to warm up. Because Giles didn't get unlimited warmup pitches like he would've if it was an injury substitution.
