The epitome of the season (and i used that exact line this morning to a coworker regarding the Reds) was the RBI single last night.

I'd make Volquez start against the other teams ace, and let Cueto start against the other teams #4 guy. Cueto would be 10-0 right now and Volquez 0-10.

Biggest thing is just sample size. Also, Reds are actually 6-5 in the games cuetos started.

Losses were also against some pretty good starting pitchers, well, at least the first 4 listed anyways.

Throw in some flukiness, an 11 game sample, mixed in with some quality starting pitchers hes going against, and its not inconceivable, although it sucks.
