Veteran Revs reliever Jason Olson, one of the few remaining players from the Revs' inaugural 2007 season, has been released. The Long Island Ducks signed him today. A four-year veteran of the Atlantic League, Olson pitched for Somerset in 2006 before arriving in York.
Unable to start the 2009 season in York because he had accepted a coaching position at a high school near his hometown of Reno, Nev., Olson joined the Revs in late June. After looking sharp in his first few appearances, Olson struggled (1-2, 7.91 ERA). He allowed at least one run in six straight appearances, from July 19 to Aug. 7. In his last appearance with York, he struck out all three Long Island batters he faced Sunday.
Catcher Luis Taveras, outfielder Jason Aspito and infielder Keoni DeRenne also played during the Revs inaugural season.
