Disgruntled Cincinnati Reds' fans got their wish Monday, as veteran reliever Kevin Gregg was designated for assignment.
Gregg got off to a poor start to open the year, but the situation came to a head following last Thursday's performance. After Gregg allowed three runs in 2/3 of an inning, some angry fans started a petition on change.org to get him sent to the minors.
While it started small, the petition gained over 3,000 supporters in just a few days. Some of those may have come from the Reds' front office based on Monday's news.
