Jennings was released by the Reds on Friday, Zach Buchanan of the Cincinnati Enquirer.

EDGE Analysis

Jennings showed some power in spring for the Reds, but a .195 batting average ultimately sealed his fate. He has been on a steady decline for the past four years, with his OPS dropping from .748 in 2013 to .631 in 2016. That wasn't enough to unseat any of Cincinnati's outfielders, as they have instead chosen to go with youth in former Cubs prospect Arismendy Alcantara. Jennings has played just 83 major league games over the past two seasons, and he's going to have a hard time adding to that total after this stinker of a spring.
