UPDATE 4:06 p.m.
Isn’t Mark Serrano a font of information? Now he’s congratulating Donnie Joseph. Joseph is a left-handed pitcher who, until moments ago, was in the AAA Louisville organization.
*******************
UPDATE 3:53 p.m.
Mark Serrano, minor leaguer in the Reds organization, tweeted congratulations to Juan Carlos Sulbaranon getting traded to the Royals.

Sulbaran was a 30th round draft pick in 2008. He has been playing in AA Pensacola. If it’s a straight-up deal, that’s not bad.
*******************
UPDATE 3:45 p.m.
Just a little more info on the guy:
Age: 28
HT: 6’4″
WT: 300 lbs

Has 23 saves and 35 Ks as the closer for the Royals. If he’s not a piece for the next trade (in the next 13 minutes!!) will he take over the role from Chapman?
*******************
Ken Rosenthal is reporting that the Cincinnati Reds have acquired Jonathan Broxton from the Kansas City Royals. Broxton is a right-handed relief pitcher with a 1-2 record and a 2.27 ERA over 35.2 innings pitched with the Royals this season.

It’s sort of a mystifying move, since the bullpen is already a little crowded, so there’s speculation that he’s part of a trade for someone else or that someone else from the bullpen may be soon to be announced in a deal. It’s not yet reported what the Reds are giving up for Broxton.
