Fantasy baseball players in the news The latest news, rumors and injury updates on key fantasy baseball players. Cincinnati Reds news, rumors and injuriesTue, 21 May 2013 11:10:35 -0700 The Cincinnati Reds optioned 1B Neftali Soto to Triple-A Louisville Monday, May 20, to make room on the roster for SP Johnny Cueto. Share: Reds | Johnny Cueto concerned with windup Mon, 20 May 2013 11:40:28 -0700 Updating a previous report, Cincinnati Reds SP Johnny Cueto is concerned that his windup has led to injuries. "I was discussing it with the head trainer, 'Do you think my windup is too strong and that's why I am getting so many muscle injuries?'" Cueto said. Cueto isn't worried about changing his windup midseason. Fantasy Tip: It's unclear if Cueto will actually make the decision to tweak his windup this year, but if he doesn't, he'll surely work on that in the offseason. Either way, Cueto should be considered a nice No. 1 starter for the rest of the season. Share: Reds | Johnny Cueto may change mechanics Sun, 19 May 2013 23:53:01 -0700 Cincinnati Reds SP Johnny Cueto (oblique) may change his pitching mechanics once he returns to the starting lineup. Cueto believes a change he made in 2011, which involved him turning his back to the batter in windup, may have contributed to nagging injuries. Share: Reds | Zack Cozart scratched Sun, 19 May 2013 23:51:18 -0700 The Cincinnati Reds were forced to scratch SS Zack Cozart (illness) from Sunday, May 19's lineup against the Philadelphia Phillies due to illness. INF Cesar Izturis started in Cozart's place and batted second. Share: Reds | Chris Heisey MRI negative Sun, 19 May 2013 23:49:03 -0700 Injured Cincinnati Reds OF Chris Heisey (hamstring), who had a setback early last week while rehabbing his injured right hamstring, had an MRI taken in Cincinnati Sunday, May 19. It confirmed the strain, but no other serious injury was found. Share: Reds | Bronson Arroyo finding success against Philadelphia Sat, 18 May 2013 20:53:40 -0700 Cincinnati Reds SP Bronson Arroyo allowed five hits over 7 2/3 scoreless innings in a win Saturday, May 18, against the Philadelphia Phillies. He also struck out six, and allowed just one runner to reach third base. Fantasy Tip: Arroyo went 1-7 in his first 10 games against the Philadelphia Phillies in his career, but he is now 3-0 with a 1.52 ERA in his past three starts against Philly dating back to Aug. 22, 2012. Arroyo remains a must-start fantasy option in all NL-only leagues and most mixed formats, especially when the matchup is favorable. Share: Reds | Todd Frazier slumping Sat, 18 May 2013 11:17:59 -0700 Cincinnati Reds 3B Todd Frazier is hitless in his last 19 at-bats. Share: Reds | Tony Cingrani sent down Sat, 18 May 2013 10:22:57 -0700 The Cincinnati Reds have optioned SP Tony Cingrani to Triple-A Louisville. In a corresponding move, the team recalled 1B Neftali Soto. Fantasy Tip: Cingrani is going down to the minors to open up a spot in the rotation for Johnny Cueto, who is coming back from a lat injury. Owners could consider keeping Cingrani on their roster because he could return to the team in the near future. Share: Reds | Jonathan Broxton was unavailable Fri, 17 May 2013 13:44:19 -0700 Cincinnati Reds RP Jonathan Broxton (back) was unavailable to pitch due to a "knot" in his upper back area Thursday, May 16. He'll be ready to pitch Friday, May 17. Fantasy Tip: This explains why J.J. Hoover came into the game late. However, Hoover has been pitching much better this year and could at least have a partial share of saving opportunities if Aroldis Chapman were to miss time due to injuries. Share: Reds | Mike Leake to start Tuesday Fri, 17 May 2013 13:00:56 -0700 Cincinnati Reds SP Mike Leake is scheduled to make his next start against the New York Mets Tuesday, May 21. Fantasy Tip: Even though Tony Cingrani has pitched well since being called up, he's not guaranteed to stick around when Johnny Cueto (lat) comes off the disabled list next week. Dusty Baker is usually loyal to those with experience, which Leake has over Cingrani. Share: Reds | Chris Heisey's setback not severe Thu, 16 May 2013 15:39:17 -0700 Cincinnati Reds OF Chris Heisey's (hamstring) hamstring setback isn't severe, but he won't be back any time soon. Heisey won't return until at least the team's next homestand, at the earliest. Fantasy Tip: Xavier Paul has been starting in left field with Heisey out, and he'll continue to benefit from his absence. Donald Lutz, who was recalled when Heisey was initially injured, has been the first bat off the bench. Paul is an NL-only commodity, at best. Share: Reds | Johnny Cueto to return Monday Wed, 15 May 2013 14:07:15 -0700 Cincinnati Reds SP Johnny Cueto (lat) is set to return from the disabled list and start Monday, May 20, which is the date for SP Mike Leake's next start. However, The Cincinnati Enquirer's John Fay doesn't think that necessarily means Leake will be bumped from the rotation. Fantasy Tip: Make plans to put Cueto back on your active fantasy baseball roster. Although Tony Cingrani (shoulder) had his start pushed back due to minor arm troubles, Leake still seems like the likely candidate to be bumped from the rotation. We won't know for sure until next week, though, so stay tuned. Share: Reds | Luis Durango signs Wed, 15 May 2013 12:56:34 -0700 The Cincinnati Reds signed free-agent OF Luis Durango (Royals) to a minor league deal Tuesday, May 14. Share: Reds | Tony Cingrani pushed back Tue, 14 May 2013 14:05:04 -0700 Cincinnati Reds SP Tony Cingrani (shoulder) has been pushed back in the rotation because he's been dealing with shoulder soreness, according to manager Dusty Baker. Fantasy Tip: With Johnny Cueto (lat) nearing a return from the disabled list, this could affect Cingrani's short-term standing in the rotation if he can't make his next start. It could also mean that Mike Leake stays in the rotation. Stay tuned. Share: Reds | Chris Heisey has setback Tue, 14 May 2013 14:01:44 -0700 Cincinnati Reds OF Chris Heisey (hamstring) re-strained his hamstring and has been taken off his rehab assignment. He will return to Cincinnati to be re-evaluated, and the team doesn't know how serious his injury is. Fantasy Tip: Xavier Paul and Donald Lutz will continue to benefit from Heisey being out a little longer. Both Paul and Lutz should be left for cavernous NL-only leagues. Share:  |
