Josh “Judge” Judy
Cincinnati Reds claimed right-handed reliever Josh Judy off waivers from the Indians. I have been watching some games (MLB and AAA) where Josh pitched in 2011 and I have to say I am very impressed with what he can do.

He has a blog “Josh Judy Blog” [Source] and a facebook fan page. This is what he has said about the transaction on facebook,
“I have mixed emotions today… I’m excited to announce that I’ll be joining the Cincinnati Reds and been given the opportunity to be part of something special! My wife and I are really excited about this and can’t wait to be part of the Big Red Machine Family.
With that said I’m sad that I’m leaving a bunch of great friends and teammates in Cleveland and the opportunity that the Cleveland Indian family have given me. My wife and I have developed some really special friendships and bonds in Cleveland, you all will never be forgotten
I wish you all and your families a great Holiday Season!!!!!”
Jamie Ramsey and Mark Sheldon were the first ones to report this transaction. This addition will help push the Reds 40 man roster back up to 37.
