I am a freelance writer. I've covered the Cincinnati Reds, Bengals and others since 1992.
I have a background in sales as well. I've sold consumer electronics, advertising and consumer package goods for companies ranging from the now defunct Circuit City to Procter&Gamble.
I have worked as a stats operator for Xavier University, the University of Cincinnati, the College of Mount St. Joe and Colerain High School.
The former Vanderbilt University pitcher is starting his fifth professional season. He appeared in three games for the Reds last season, pitching four innings in which he allowed one run on two hits.
For Louisville last season, the Elizabeth, New Jersey native appeared in 49 games, allowing 24 earned runs in 56 innings (3.86 ERA). His record was 6-5.
The 26-year old has appeared in five games and worked six innings. Christiani has allowed just one on two hits. He struck out five and hasn't walked a batter.
"His ability to be a multiple innings guy and his ability to be a
groundball, strikeout combination guy are nice things to have," Bryan Price said. "Historically lefties have given him a bit more trouble. He has developed a cut fastball and really improved his change up that makes him a better prospect for us. I really believe that given the opportunity, this could be a good year for Nick to establish himself as a big league pitcher."
