Reds vs. Diamondbacks, Game 1: Preview and Predictions Thread

Arizona Diamondbacks @ Cincinnati Reds

Welcome to the Reds, Ryan LaMarre.

The short-lived Marlon Byrd era is overwith, and hopefully, that'll bring new blood in LF. Either way, let's just hope it doesn't mean more Skip Schumaker.

John Lamb makes his second start for Cincinnati, which is exciting. He'll face Pat Corbin from Arizona, who are in for four games.

Go Reds!
