Reds signed OF Felix Perez to a minor league contract.
He’ll receive a $550,000 signing bonus. Perez lost a $3.5 million deal with the Yankees after he was was suspended last year for claiming to be 20 years old when he was actually 24. Now 25 years old, he’s not viewed as a plus-prospect. He’ll begin his professional career either in Class-A Dayton or Lynchburg.
