REDS PROBABLE: PADRES PROBABLE:
Luke Hudson (1-5, 8.83) Pedro Astacio (2-9, 5.84)
I can remember thinking for the past few years that Pedro Astacio wouldn't be a bad pickup for a franchise as pitching starved as the Reds. I don't think that anymore.
Hudson's last outing wasn't quite as bad as his others, so hopefully he can build on it.
Since the break the Reds are 9-5. Not terrible, and it's a start. This team really isn't as bad as it's record. If it could simply get ahold of some league average pitching ...
