Several players who appeared with the Cincinnati Reds in 2015 have elected free agency after being outrighted to the minor leagues, including right-handed reliever Sam LeCure, outfielder Brennan Boesch, outfielder Chris Dominguez and right-handed reliever Collin Balester.

Despite being demoted to Triple-A after spring training and struggling for most of the year, LeCure seemed to regain his form and made his way back to the big leagues in August, pitching to a 3.
