May 15, 201313 yr Not a tired arm. The Marlins had already seen him. The Phillies haven't, and they are a heavy LH hitting team. The Marlins are, at best, a triple A team. If they don't have confidence in him to get them out, you skip his spot and replace him when Cueto returns. And the Reds "official" stance was a tired arm for Cingrani so they pushed him back a day. You think they put Cueto on 6 days rest for his return? Writing is on the wall for Leake...

Down to AAA or possibly in the Bullpen?

I think you're wrong, but we'll find out soon enough. Leake has pitched well enough to keep his spot IMO. Not that Cingrani hasn't.

I thought it was for sure Cingrani until they switched up the rotation with Latos moving up and Cueto working on a schedule to return Sunday/Monday. He'd have to wait until Wednesday now to replace Cingrani as things stand. Don't see that happening...

He'd have to wait until Wednesday now to replace Cingrani as things stand. Don't see that happening... I still think the main reason was to throw a lefty they've never seen at the Phillies. Cueto can go Monday, and Leake gets a little extra rest between starts.

May 15, 201313 yr Choo 8, Izturis 6, Votto 3, Phillips 4, Bruce 9, Paul 7, Hannahan 5, Mesoraco 2, Leake RHP.
May 15, 201313 yr Choo 8, Izturis 6, Votto 3, Phillips 4, Bruce 9, Paul 7, Hannahan 5, Mesoraco 2, Leake RHP. Cozart looked good at the plate last night.
May 15, 201313 yr Cozart looked good at the plate last night. I would've placed a large sum of money down that he sat him today as a result. :lol: Oh, and thank God he's sitting Frazier. It's about time. He's clueless at the plate.
May 16, 201313 yr The Reds have to resign Choo period. IF not they better trade him in July for the best 3 players in baseball.......(you get my point) They can not let him just walk at the end of the season.
