Setback for Cueto

The Reds got some bad news during the off day that ace Johnny Cueto had a setback discovered during his checkup in Cincinnati. His rehab assignment start today at Double-A Pensacola has been scratched.

What’s particularly troubling is the injury. Cueto, who is on the DL for a strained right lat, felt soreness in his oblique muscle.

“He had a good bullpen [Monday] and he didn’t experience anything in his arm but he experienced soreness in that oblique that he hurt last year in the playoffs,” Reds manager Dusty Baker said. “So, we’ll wait and see.”

You may recall that Cueto had to exit Game 1 of the NLDS at San Francisco after only eight pitches because of a strained right oblique.

Cueto will be examined again on Monday and a potential rehab schedule will be updated then. That means any future roster move and figuring out what to do with Tony Cingrani has been tabled.

-----------

It's obviously the changes in Cueto's pitching motion after the injury in 2010 completely changed his effectiveness. He has been dominant since. However, the lat and oblique injuries, from my limited knowledge of Kinesiology, are directly related to this pitching motion and both muscle groups have great re-injury potential. The guy may never be but one pitch away from going on the DL at any time...

Frazier has been a beast on D today.

Also, I stepped away from the TV for a bit and put the radio broadcast on my phone. Marty said attendance was 32,000 today?! I'm calling bullshit on that.

I guess it's safe to assume Chapman does not like the cold...

Anyone know anything about Chapman?

I do.

He's got a fragile psyche. The Reds don't let him talk to the media. The Reds don't allow anyone access to him.

However, they put him in a NO-WIN situation, in an absolutely shitty weather day.

Genius manager...genius.

Chapman is not a fan of cold weather....and how many times have you seen a manager put in a closer in a non-save situation and they struggle....seems like 3/4 of the time.

Dumb move by Dusty
