    Reds Release Nick Travieso

    Ends his tumultuous and disappointing career as a Red.

    Honestly impressed he even came back at all to get released, got to give him credit for not calling it quits even after missing two full seasons.

    I've always held up 2014 as the Reds worst draft but boy, outside of Winker the Reds 2012 draft was brutal too.

    And to think we drafted Benintendi in 2012 and we could have given him a few million and the entire complexion of that draft and franchise changes entirely.

    The enduring pain of the 2012 draft will always be the talent that got left on the table.

    Why have half of our first round picks this decade been named Nick?
    Two were horrible, one has proven to at least be a tad better than Schebler, and the jury is obviously still out on Lodolo.
    But seriously, what's this front office's fascination with guys named Nick??

    Are there any Nick's projected to go in the top 20 or so next year?
    If so, $10 says he goes to the Reds.

    Nick rhymes with Dick...
    The television crews left and about 10 reporters remained in the room. That's when Price took his turn doing the talking.
    What followed was a five-minute, 34-second expletive-filled tirade. The final tally was 77 uses of the "F" word or a variant and 11 uses of a vulgar term for feces (two bovine, one equine).

    Reds have a knack for picking Nicks.

    Nick Rivers: I'm pleased to meet you. My name's Nick.
    Hillary Flammond: Nick? What does that mean?
    Nick Rivers: Oh, nothing. My dad thought of it while he was shaving.
