Reds vs. Diamondbacks, Game 2: Preview and Predictions Thread

Arizona Diamondbacks @ Cincinnati Reds

Last night was just the latest installment of the Reds finding new ways to lose. Let's hope tonight doesn't continue that trend.

David Holmberg gets the ball for Cincinnati. Mongo got tagged for 7 runs in his last start in LA, so this is probably a pivotal start for him with a few other arms ready to take his spot.

He'll face Rubby De La Rosa, the former Red Sox prospect who's been taking his licks as a part of the Arizona rotation this year. He's never faced the Reds.

Go Reds!
