After waiving his no-trade clause, Scott Rolen was dealt to the Reds for Edwin Encarnacion and minor league pitchers Josh Roenicke and Zach Stewart.
Roenicke, 26, is the son of Angels third-base coach and former big leaguer Gary Roenicke. He is pitching for Triple-A Louisville this season in relief and has a 2.57 ERA in 28 innings. He has 32 strikeouts against 6 walks, hasn't allowed a homer and has a 1.6:1 groundball to flyball ratio. Roenicke has a 2.70 ERA in 13.1 MLB innings this year. He was not on Baseball America's 2009 Top 10 Reds Prospects list, but was rated as having the best fastball in Cincinnati's system. John Sickels rated him as the sixth best prospect in the system. He turns 27 on Tuesday.
Stewart is 22 and, like Roenicke, didn't appear on Baseball America's 2009 Top 10 Reds Prospects list. Also like Roenicke, he was rated more highly by Sickels as he was listed as their 7th best prospect. Both were graded as B- prospects, which would have placed them around the same level as Brad Mills in Sickels mind. Stewart is now pitching for Louisville after starting the season in the Florida State League. After 7 starts and a 2.13 ERA (although he allowed 7 unearned runs) he earned a promotion to Double-A. He made 7 starts there and put up a 1.46 ERA alongside strong peripherals. He has been pitching in relief for Lousville and has a 0.73 ERA in 12.1 innings with 16 strikeouts and 8 walks. His groundball to flyball ratio was above or around 2 at both Single-A and Double-A.
