Reds closer and Cuban defector Aroldis Chapman is dubbed the "Cuban Missile" thanks to his background and his triple-digit heater that leaves most opposing hitters helplessly flailing at the air (232 strikeouts in 146 1/3 innings for Chapman say as much).
And now, each of his Reds teammates has a hat with the moniker. As noted by C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer, the hats were personalized for each teammate, sporting initials and different colors.
Here are some Reds fashioning their new lids, thanks to third baseman Todd Frazier:
