Beleaguered Cincinnati Reds Take on the St. Louis Cards

The Cincinnati Reds will play host this weekend to the St. Louis Cardinals, who presently sit atop the NL Central standings. The Cards will throw Joel Pinero (4-1, 3.24) against the Reds’ young fireballer Johnny Cueto (2-1, 1.65).

 

The Reds will once again rely on a patchwork lineup, as Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips are still out due to sickness. They will play their third straight game, without the benefit, I think he’s a benefit, right,of starting short stop Alex Gonzalez. 

Reds-Pirates: Cueto Leads Reds To Series Win

The Reds entered the season knowing that the pitching staff would have to lead them in order for them to have the success that they have hoped for. 

So far this season the pitching has been as good as they could of expected.

Leading the staff today, was young Johnny Cueto who went eight innings of shutout baseball, allowing four hits with nine strikeouts sprinkled in. 

Most importantly, he showed some control and only walked one batter in the game.

NFL Draft: Favorite Five

As you read and watch all the players in the upcoming NFL draft, you can't help but find you really like some players, even if you know the chances of your team getting (or wanting them) are slim.

Regardless, I have five favorite players for this draft and wherever they end up, I'll watch their careers with interest, and hopefully I can bump this blog in a few months time and make myself look clever. If they suck, this piece gets forgotten.
