The Reds have reached a contract agreement with first-round pick RHP Nick Travieso.
Travieso gets a signing bonus of $2 million, which is actually south of the recommended slot value for the 14th overall pick. The 18-year-old right-hander should get his professional career underway later this summer in some form of rookie ball. Mon, Jun 25, 2012 03:42:00 PM

MLB's Jonathan Mayo reports that the Reds will officially sign first-round pick Nick Travieso on Wednesday.

Travieso, a hard-throwing high school pitcher out of Miami, will receive a $2 million bonus, which is a bit under the recommended slot value of $2.375 million for the 14th overall pick. The Reds have also agreed to terms with second-round pick Tanner Rahier, a shortstop out of Southern California. He's set to receive a $649,700 bonus.

MLB.com's Mark Sheldon reports that the Reds are "pretty close" to an agreement with Nick Travieso.

Travieso was selected 14th overall in last week's MLB Amateur Draft. The 18-year-old right-hander from Florida will fly to Cincy at some point soon for a physical. "I think we’re just trying to finish up a couple things, hopefully sometime this week," said Reds GM Walt Jocketty.

The Reds selected high-school RHP Nick Travieso with the No. 14 pick in the 2012 draft.

Some might consider this a reach, but the Reds clearly love talented, power arms and that's precisely what Travieso is. The prep from Florida's favorite player is Roger Clemens and the youngster flings heat like his idol. Travieso can reach the high-90's and has the potential to develop two plus secondary pitches. But therein lies the rub: Travieso will have to develop a pair of complements to his nasty fastball or iron out his control, or he'll be destined for the bullpen. If he can't do either, he's going to wash out.
