Nothing says "end of the rebuild" quite like keeping both Gosselin AND Pennington on the 25 man

Justin Nicolino was outrighted to Louisville.
That means the extra southpaw will be whichever one of Garrett or Finnegan isn't in the rotation.

The Reds added Gosselin & Quackenbush to the 40-man roster.
Still waiting on Pennington -- someone will have to DFA'd or moved to the 60 day DL.
40 man is now full and the 25 man sits at 29 by my count. With Disco, Lorenzen & Shackelford all reported headed to the that leaves two more player to be optioned to Louisville (one to get to 25 plus one to make room for Pennington).
I thought Jose Lopez had been optioned, but I can't find any evidence of it.
Assuming Hernandez & Flannigan both start on the 25-man roster and Lopez is one of the pitchers optioned, the last spot in the bullpen seems to be down to one of Brice or Weiss.
Since we've heard nothing about adding Worley, I'm assuming we don't at this point.
Thus your opening day roster is all but set:
C - Barnhart/Mesoraco 1B - Votto 2B - Gennett 3B - Suaarez SS - Peraza IF -- Gosselin, Pennington OF -- Duvall, Hamilton, Schebler, Winker, Erwin
Rotation - Bailey, Castillo, Mahle, Romano, one of Garrett/Finnegan Bullpen - Hernandez (?), Hughes, Iglesias, Peralta, Quackenbush, one of Brice/Weiss, other of Garrett/Finnegan

Ya Worley was sent to minor league camp today (I assume he has an opt out if he wants to use it).
Believe the bullpen is currently Iglesias, Hughes, Peralta, Quackenbush and it sounds like Hernandez may hit the DL. I would think Brice gets the last spot and if Hernandez does hit the DL it will be Weiss getting his spot until he is healthy.
I believe it was also mentioned earlier today Finnegan would also be starting on the DL and with no more off day on Friday, Amir Garrett will likely start the year in the rotation and get the start on Tuesday.

Price announced this morning that Reed will start on Tuesday so they can keep Garrett in the bullpen
Iglesias on paternity leave, Hernandez to DL (with Shackelford and Lorenzen). Both Brice and Weiss made the bullpen and Jackson Stephens also recalled to pitch out of the pen.
