Claussen gets the D-F-A

All from the Godfather Marc Lancaster:

The Reds designated Brandon Claussen for assignement to make room for Weathers today.  Kind of an interesting move, I figured they would dump the Love Shack, and maybe use Claussen in a trade of some sort.

Also -  The Astros got Jason Jennings and Miguel Asencio for Wily Taveras, Taylor Buckholz & the once hyped prospect Jason Hirch.

Its clear the Reds didn't have enough young pitching to get Jennings, but it would have been a nice # 2 or 3.
