Reds sign Dioner Navarro
The Cincinnati Reds have signed catcher Dioner Navarro to a minor league deal Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports. Navarro will earn $800k in the majors and can earn an additional $200k in incentives.
Navarro hit .193 in his second stint with the Dodgers last season. He was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on August 23 as a result of his poor work ethic.

Reds sign Catcher Dioner Navarro
In a move that should make Javier Valentin fans pretty happy, the Reds have signed catcher Dioner Navarro.
This would seem to jive with the rumor we’ve heard that Ryan Hanigan will be traded soon. We hope not, but we’ve heard it. Navarro is going to be 28 next season and hit a Javy Valentin-esque .193/.276/.324 in 202 plate appearances for the Dodgers last year.

The aisle-seat detail was pretty cool.
