    I'm shocked by the news. I didn't think he'd be back, at least as a starter.

    It was posted in the "Reds possible rotation" thread

    But regardless, this is exciting news!

    Imagine a full strength Cueto, along with Latos and Bailey.

    It will be a shame if we can't make it past the wild card game!

    Awesome. The equivalent of a minor league rehab start in the big leagues!

    At this stage of the game we are at a fork in the road.

    Do you go all out for the division?

    Or do you do everything you can so that you enter the postseason with a Cueto/Latos/Bailey 1-2-3 in the postseason. (In whatever order)

    Good choice Reds.

    You try to optimize your team for October. Therefore, build up Cueto and continue to build up Ludwick.

    No doubt. People can complain but this is the right thing to do and it's not like Cueto has had arm problems or hasn't pitched since last year.

    I assume you're suggesting that this is actually a start against what is the equivalent of a minor league team because most would agree with that. Cueto should be able to hold his own. Perfect circumstances considering the situation.
