FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»June 14, 1991:
In a trade that upsets the Reds players, Cincy sends minor league prospect Reggie Jefferson to Cleveland for minor leaguer Tim Costo. Jefferson hit .417 in spring training, was brought up in May and contracted pneumonia June 4. Rather than put him on the disabled list, the Reds chose to "designate him for assignment," meaning that after 10 days they had to trade him or risk losing him.
