  • Making Cincinnati the National Epicenter for Minority Business
    2019-2020 Making Cincinnati the National Epicenter for Minority Business Development 2 – 2019-2020 Accelerator Annual Report Letter from the Chair Over the past couple of years, we have outlined a bold vision and strategic plan to grow the aggregate annual revenues of minority businesses in the region by $1 billion and subsequently create an incremental 3,500 jobs by year-end 2022. This bold vision and plan have galvanized regional and national stakeholders desiring to partner with us to not only accomplish something transformational for Greater Cincinnati, but something that might truly inform and transform this work across the nation. Our four key pillars to achieve these bold goals, which are to grow our existing portfolio firms, build a robust pipeline, attract larger-scale minority firms to the region, and create new minority firms via acquisition of mainstream businesses, have each enjoyed major developments over the past year, and have collectively served to further elevate and position the Minority Business Accelerator as a national best practice. Importantly, our bold plan and vision follow over a decade of exceptional work in the region to build larger-scale minority-owned businesses, which was perhaps best captured in a LendingTree.com report released early in 2019 that recognized Cincinnati among the top 10 metropolitan areas in the country where minority entrepreneurs are finding success. Moreover, certain categories of that very same report, namely the percentage of minority-owned businesses in operation for more than the six years, as well as the percentage of minority businesses with annual revenues greater than $500K, rank Cincinnati as number one in the nation.

Mike’s grandfather, Gus, played for the Reds from 1953 to 1961 and his father, Buddy, played from 1985 to 1988 MLB.COM Riggleman talks managing Reds' turnaround By Bill Ladson MLB.com @ladsonbill24 Jul. 19th, 2018 In a recent phone interview with MLB.com, Reds interim manager Jim Riggleman answered questions on a wide range of topics, from his managerial style to his respect for Reds ownership. MLB.com: Your agent, Burton Rocks, told me you are having the time of your life. How much fun are you having? Jim Riggleman: I have to preface it by saying working with and for [former Reds manager] Bryan Price was great. I love Bryan. It was kind of like when I was with Manny [Acta in Washington]. They managed well. It's just that they couldn't win ballgames. After a while, that just catches up to you. The other side of that is, now that I've become the manager, I do, absolutely, love it. I'm enjoying it to the nth degree. It's what I love to do. MLB.com: Once you took over, what made the team click? Riggleman: I think a couple of things: After about a week into the season, Eugenio Suarez got hit by a pitch and broke a finger. He was out for about three weeks. And then right around the same time, Scott Schebler, our right fielder, had a shoulder issue, and we put him on the DL for a couple of weeks.

    CCIINNCCIINNNNAATTII RREEDDSS PPRREESSSS CCLLIIPPPPIINNGGSS NOVEMBER 14, 2014 CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Cueto-for-Upton trade proposed by Sports on Earth writer David Clark Johnny Cueto for Justin Upton? It's one of five blockbuster trades that make sense, according to sportsonearth.com's Anthony Castrovince. From Castrovince: Neither of these clubs has the financial flexibility to be a major player in free agency, so here's a way for each of them to significantly address a pressing need in the trading game. Granted, I don't actually expect the Reds to move their ace in advance of a season in which they expect to contend. Walt Jocketty has made it pretty clear that's not his intent at all. Nor am I convinced John Hart will move his cleanup hitter, though he hinted this week that this is a stronger possibility than those rumors of him moving Evan Gattis. What I do know is that both Upton and Cueto are eligible for free agency next winter, and the odds of either remaining with his current club beyond 2015 seem slim, given the other contractual commitments their clubs have made. If either is to be moved, the best option might be to move them for pieces of immediate impact. The Reds need a productive left fielder who can get on base -- preferably in a short-term situation, before prospect Jesse Winker arrives (as soon as 2016). Upton runs notoriously hot and cold, but he's averaged 24 homers with a .357 OBP the last six seasons. He'd instantly augment and balance the heart of a lineup in which Joey Votto's knee woes and Jay Bruce's disappointing '14 are big concerns moving forward.

Moran would manage the Reds until 1923, collecting a 425-329 record 1978-Former Reds executive, Larry MacPhail, is elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum 1997-The Reds sign Deion Sanders to a free agent contract, for the second time ESPN.COM Busy Reds in on Realmuto, but would he make them a contender? Jan. 29, 2019 Buster Olney ESPN Senior Writer The last time the Cincinnati Reds won a postseason series, Joey Votto was 12 years old, Bret Boone was the team's second baseman and the organization had only recently drafted his kid brother, a third baseman out of the University of Southern California named Aaron Boone. Since the Reds swept the Dodgers in a Division Series in 1995, they have built more statues than they have playoff wins. In recent years, a Dodger said he was sick of Kirk Gibson -- not because of anything Gibson had done, but because the team had felt the need to roll out the highlight of Gibson's epic '88 World Series home run, in lieu of subsequent championship success. Similarly, most of the biggest stars in the Reds organization continue to be Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose and Tony Perez, as well as announcer Marty Brennaman, who recently announced he will retire after the upcoming season.

  • Cincinnati Reds' Newest Owner Is a Top Official from a New York-Based Global Private Equity and Advisory Firm
    CCIINNCCIINNNNAATTII RREEDDSS PPRREESSSS CCLLIIPPPPIINNGGSS OCTOBER 8, 2014 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY: OCTOBER 8, 1880 – CINCINNATI IS KICKED OUT OF THE NATIONAL LEAGUE, DUE IN PART TO ITS REFUSAL TO STOP RENTING OUT THEIR BALLPARK ON SUNDAYS AND TO CEASE SELLING BEER DURING GAMES. CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Fay: Reds should sign Todd Frazier, Devin Mesoraco John Fay Much of the focus this offseason -- actually when you're out of it as early as the Reds were, the offseason starts during the season -- has been on what the Reds will do with the starting pitchers. That's understandable when four of your five starters are a year removed from their walk year, including the ace, Johnny Cueto. The Reds can figure out a way to re-sign Cueto. Really, they realistically could find a way to keep three of the four. But the merits of signing pitchers to long-term deals, especially by a small-market team, is debatable because of the injury risk. What the Reds do with Cueto, Mat Latos, Mike Leake and Alfredo Simon remains to be seen. You can make an argument either way. But the Reds should sign a couple of players to long-term deals this offseason. Neither is a pitcher. I'm talking about Todd Frazier and Devin Mesoraco. Both are arbitration-eligible for the first time. That means they'll go from making a bit over the minimum ($600,000 in Frazier's case; $525,000 in Mesoraco's case) to $3 million or so. If they continue to play like they have, they'll get huge raises in the second and third years of arbitration.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings January 22, 2015 CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Reds sign RHP Jason Marquis to minor-league deal By C. Trent Rosecrans / Cincinnati Enquirer / [email protected] / @ctrent The Reds have signed 36-year-old right-hander Jason Marquis to a minor-league contract with an invite to major league camp. Marquis started nine games in the Phillies organization last season, going 4-1 with a 4.18 ERA. He last pitched in the majors for the Padres, going 9-5 with a 4.05 ERA in 20 starts for the Padres in 2013. An All-Star with the Rockies in 2009, Marquis has pitched in parts of 14 seasons in the big leagues, going 121-114 with 4.56 ERA. He's pitched for the Braves, Cardinals, Cubs, Rockies, Nationals, Diamondbacks, Twins and Padres. The left-handed hitting Marquis won a Silver Slugger with the Cardinals in 2004 and is a career .196/.214/.278 hitter. Reds pitchers and catchers report to spring training in Goodyear, Ariz., on Feb. 18, with the first workout the next day. After the trades of starter Mat Latos and Alfredo Simon, the Reds have two spots in the rotation up for grabs after Johnny Cueto, Homer Bailey and Mike Leake. Marquis could challenge for one of those spots, along with Raisel Iglesias, David Holmberg, Tony Cingrani and Anthony DeSclafani.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings December 15, 2015 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1933 - The major leagues agree on a uniform ball, to be livelier than the National League ball and to match the American League balls. Owners also agree to ban Sunday doubleheaders until after June 15. MLB.COM Commissioner Manfred denies reinstatement for Rose Hall of Fame: All-time hits leader 'remains ineligible' for Cooperstown consideration By Paul Hagan / MLB.com Pete Rose, who was given a lifetime ban for betting on baseball, will not be reinstated and will continue to be banned from working in baseball, Commissioner Rob Manfred announced Monday. "Mr. Rose has not presented credible evidence of a reconfigured life either by an honest acceptance by him of his wrongdoing, so clearly established by the Dowd Report, or by a rigorous, self-aware and sustained program of avoidance by him of the circumstances that led to his permanent eligibility in 1989. Absent such credible evidence, allowing him to work in the game presents an unacceptable risk of a future violation by him of Rule 21, and thus to the integrity of our sport," Manfred wrote. "I, therefore, must reject Mr. Rose's application for reinstatement." The all-time hits leader, 74, was placed on the permanently ineligible list for violating Major League Baseball's strict rule against betting on baseball on Aug. 23, 1989. Subsequently, the Board of Directors of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum declared that all players on that list would also be ineligible for election. Manfred's decision, which was communicated to Rose both verbally and in writing, does not directly address that issue.

This is the first time the Hall of Fame honors four men representing the same baseball club, in the same year MLB.COM Reds fall as Harvey allows 8 runs in short outing Pirates' homers are first allowed by right-hander since June 8 By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon CINCINNATI -- The non-waiver Trade Deadline is July 31, which means that Matt Harvey could get one more start before the Reds decide whether or not they want to move him. But if scouts put too much stock in Harvey's disastrous performance on Sunday vs. the Pirates, the phone of baseball operations president Dick Williams might not ring as much. Overall, Harvey has been a success story since his May 8 acquisition from the Mets, but that was certainly not the case during a 9-2 Reds loss to Pittsburgh at Great American Ball Park. He turned in the worst start of his brief tenure in Cincinnati with eight earned runs and eight hits -- including a career-high four home runs -- over 3 2/3 innings. The biggest issue? Harvey was unable to locate any of his pitches effectively. "I tried to go in, and it'd go back over the plate. I tried to go away to a righty, and it was tailing down the middle," said Harvey, who had zero walks and two strikeouts.
