Cincinnati Reds news, rumors and injuriesThu, 23 May 2013 11:10:27 -0700 The Cincinnati Reds signed free-agent P Trevor Bell (Tigers) to a minor league deal Thursday, May 23, and assigned him to Triple-A Louisville. Share: Reds | Manny Parra to resume rehab Wed, 22 May 2013 14:07:05 -0700 Cincinnati Reds RP Manny Parra (pectoral) will resume his rehab with Triple-A Louisville Thursday, May 23. He has already made three appearances with Double-A Pensacola. Share: Reds | Nick Masset update Wed, 22 May 2013 10:51:30 -0700 Cincinnati Reds RP Nick Masset (shoulder), who is attempting to come back from shoulder surgery, is still at the club's facility in Goodyear, Ariz. Team trainer Paul Lessard stated that the right-hander is throwing well and his throwing has reached a distance of 120 feet. Masset has yet to throw off a mound. Share: Reds | Chris Heisey jogging, not quite at full speed Wed, 22 May 2013 10:44:51 -0700 Cincinnati Reds OF Chris Heisey (hamstring) continues to work with physical therapists in Cincinnati following the aggravation of his strained right hamstring on May 13. He's able to jog at about 80 percent effort, according to team trainer Paul Lessard. Fantasy Tip: It still sounds as if Heisey is several days or more from resuming a rehab assignment, so his absence will surely extend into June. Xavier Paul and Zach Lutz will remain NL-only options in the meantime. Share: Reds | Mike Leake on a roll Wed, 22 May 2013 01:04:57 -0700 Cincinnati Reds SP Mike Leake won his third straight start and fourth in five games Tuesday, May 21, when he held the New York Mets to three hits in seven innings of a 4-0 shutout. Share: Reds | Neftali Soto optioned Tue, 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: ![]() |
