That was Daniel Herrera, the second arm obtained in the Hamilton deal.
He also throws a screwball

Re: Hey, didja watch the Reds/Rays 9th today?
Yeah Herrera also showed a decent slider too. But I was equally impressed with Josh Roenicke and Pedro Viola. Both Roenicke and Viola threw scoreless with one strikeout a piece. I expect to see both of those guys in Cincy sometime during the 2008 season.

Re: Hey, didja watch the Reds/Rays 9th today?
All three were impressive. First time I've gotten to watch the Reds this year. Herrera was fun to watch. Gotta like a guy that throws it up there at 86 and follows it with 66. Dunn hit one out today.

He throws them even slower then that. I saw him pitch in college once, during one of those crazy FSN college games. His changeup can be described as Bugs Bunny-esque.
