Reds Tragedy

The Reds lost a prospect and two other were seriously injured in a car accident in the Dominican Republic:

The Cincinnati Reds say pitcher Jairo Capellan was killed and two other minor leagues players were injured in a car accident Saturday morning in the Dominican Republic.

Dick Williams, the Reds’ president of baseball operations, confirmed Capellan’s death and said pitcher Raul Hernandez was in critical condition and outfielder Emilio Garcia was in stable condition. The club released no details about their injuries.

Capellan was 19, the same age as the two injured players.

My thoughts go out to their family, friends, and teammates. I hope the two survivors make a full recovery.
