Cincinnati Reds assign Kevin Gregg for project

Scherffs
The Cincinnati Reds finally designated Kevin Gregg for assignment on Monday,  finishing the future 37 year old's tenure with the club after 10.2 terrible mark for job RHP Kevin Gregg,  recall from Louisville RHP Pedro Villarreal # 62).-- Cincinnati Reds Might 11,  2015 In spite of his uninspired current history and late addition to the Reds' Spring Training on a minor league signing,  Gregg improbably made the 25-man roster at the beginning of the season over the sort of Sam LeCure Aroldis Chapman Jersey,  to name a few,  and doing so made him a tidy $1.5 million guaranteed income. Since damaging camp,  nevertheless,  he's been absolutely nothing except a disaster,  publishing a 10.13 age and 1.69 WHIP in his 11 appearances and doing enough damages late in games to prompt some Reds followers to start a petition to have him sent out to much,  there's been no official word regarding whether the request is behind said DFA. So Gregg's performances have not been the just rough ones from the Reds' bullpen - right here's looking at you,  Burke Badenhop - they've definitely included in the team's organization worst 5.56 ERA and 62.6% strand rates. And,  it currently appears his unpleasant 0.2 IP,  3 H,  2 BB,  3 ER efficiency against the Pittsburgh Pirates on May 7th will certainly be his final one for Villarreal will take Gregg's spot in the bullpen in the meantime,  as he'll rejoin the Reds after having acted as the 26th male during the 2nd video game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Chicago White Sox https://www.piratessportsshop.com/collections/paul-skenes-jersey,  a game in which he allowed 3 ER in 0.2 IP to bring his 2015 season period to a strangely Greggian 10.13. Villarreal has thrown 24 innings for the Reds in a number of brief jobs going back to the 2012 period,  and he owns a career 6.75 ERA in that small big league example. The previous 7th round draft pick owns a not-much-more-inspiring 4.26 age in 644.2 small organization innings,  though it deserves noting that his numbers given that being converted from a starter to a reliever are at least a little bit extra encouraging.<br/><br/>Pirates Shop<br/>
