O'Brien out as Reds GM

Only three days after the big press conference at Great American Ball Park on Friday, new Reds owner Bob Castellini has already made a major change at the Cincinnati baseball club by firing General Manager Dan O'Brien, according to the Associated Press and FoxSports.com.

Bill "Seg Man" Dennison just said on 700 WLW that O'Brien is indeed out, and will be replaced by interim GM Brad Kullman. A press conference on the change is coming shortly.

I'll sort of miss Dan O'Brien, who read a long list of names when he was hired (Dan Fawcett, Lloyd Coughee, Jeff Odennwalt, Steve Krause, Randy Ademeack, Richard Keller,... etc...) and also said "A man playing with boys." The double entendres will never end!
