Cactus League Game 11 Thread: Reds at Diamondbacks

Next Game

Cincinnati Reds
@ Arizona Diamondbacks

Tuesday, March 16, 2010, 4:05 PM EDT
Tuscon Electic Park

Johnny Cueto vs. Edwin Jackson

Sunny. Game time temperature around 71.

 


Johnny Cueto makes his third start of the spring. He's given up 2 earned runs in 5 innings so far. In his last outing against Milwaukee he gave up one hit and one walk over three innings with one strikeout. I expect that he'll go 4 innings today.

Cueto will be followed by Jordan Smith, Jon Adkins, Logan Ondrusek, Philippe-Alexandre Valiquette, Pedro Viola and Enerio Del Rosario.

We'll also see Brian Augenstein, Blaine Boyer, Chad Qualls, and Bob Howry from the Diamondbacks.

By the way, Aroldis Chapman is starting the early game tomorrow against the Brewers.

Lineups are after the jump. No audio or video this afternoon, but there is always Gameday.

Star-divide

I don't think he's a power-closer type

But I think he definitely could have a place in a major league bullpen soon. There’s something to be said for a 6’7" reliever who can keep the ball in the park and who gives up a lot of ground balls. The Reds obviously like him if they’re sending him to the AFL and putting him on the 40-man, my guess is that he’s a May or June callup.
