Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings July 29, 2018 Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings July 29, 2018 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 2011-Reds pitcher, Jose Arredondo, singles off the Giants Brian Wilson for a hit in his first major league plate appearance MLB.COM Amid trade rumors, Harvey sharp in Reds' win Votto paces offense with 3 hits, 2 RBIs as pitching staff holds Phillies to 4 hits By Brian Rippee MLB.com 12:49 AM EDT CINCINNATI -- Matt Harvey did not want to speculate on his future with the Reds following his start in a 6-2 win over the Phillies on Saturday at Great American Ball Park. "I'm not talking about that kind of stuff," Harvey said. "I am happy to be here. I love being here. I love throwing to Tucker [Barnhart] and playing with these guys. It is out of my control." With Tuesday's non-waiver Trade Deadline approaching, Harvey's outing could very well have been his final one with Cincinnati. If that is indeed the case, his last impression was a strong one. In a no-decision, Harvey went five innings and allowed two runs on two hits with five strikeouts and two walks. The right-hander looked sharp and would have likely gone deeper into the game if his spot in the order had not come up with two outs and the bases loaded in a 2-2 game in the bottom of the fifth. Dilson Herrera pinch-hit for Harvey and struck out to end the inning. Harvey hit 98 mph on the radar gun, consistently sat in the mid 90s with his fastball and began to look like the pitcher who started the All-Star Game for the National League in 2013 and helped lead the Mets to the NL pennant in 2015 en route to winning the NL Comeback Player of the Year Award. "I could feel it coming out pretty good," Harvey said. "When you start taking it up that high and getting swings-and-misses, it kind of brings me back to my old days. Hopefully there is a lot more of that to come." Harvey's nearly 12-week tenure with the Reds since being traded from the Mets for Devin Mesoraco and cash on May 8 has been positive by all measures. He's amassed a 5-4 record and a 4.44 ERA in 14 starts with 56 strikeouts and 17 walks. Harvey has surrendered three earned runs or fewer in 10 of those starts, and he allowed two earned runs or fewer in six of his past seven outings. In eight appearances (four starts) with New York, Harvey was 0-2 with a 7.00 ERA and a .303 opponent batting average. He will be a free agent at the end of the season. Harvey endured two tumultuous years before coming to Cincinnati. He sputtered to a 4-10 start in 2016 before undergoing season- ending surgery that July following a diagnosis of thoracic outlet syndrome, an ailment that involves the constriction of nerves and blood vessels in the neck and shoulder. The surgery included the removal of a rib to alleviate the pressure of the nerves. The 2017 season brought a right shoulder injury and was marred with inconsistency. At times Harvey was unsure if he'd ever return to form. "There were definitely times I didn't think this was possible," Harvey said. "The progression over the last two years to get to a point where I can now, it is about maintaining that and not being satisfied with where you are at. It is keeping going and trying to get better each time." Harvey's lone mistake came in the fourth inning, when Rhys Hoskins clubbed a two-run shot to right-center field to give the Phillies a 2-1 lead. It followed a leadoff walk and represented the Phillies' first hit after Harvey retired the first nine batters he faced. The only other hit Harvey gave up came by way of a Maikel Franco double to lead off the fifth, and Harvey stranded him at third base. "I honestly think he made one mistake tonight," Barnhart said. "That was it. Out of all the pitches he threw, [it was] the one to Hoskins, who is a good hitter. He put a good swing on a ball that got out of the ballpark, but that was as sharp as I have seen him all year. I hope like hell that is not the last time I catch him." Harvey was at 92 pitches when he was pinch-hit for in the fifth, but his velocity hadn't dipped much. Harvey's last two fastballs came in at 94.4 and 93.5 mph, according to Statcast™. "We use that phrase, 'It was coming out of his hand good,' and it really was," Reds interim manager Jim Riggleman said. "It was exploding out of his hand." The Reds tied the game on a two-out single from Billy Hamilton in the bottom of the fourth, and he sparked a go-ahead rally in the sixth with a leadoff double, scoring on a Joey Votto single in a two-run inning. The Phillies put the tying run aboard with one out in the eighth inning of a 4-2 game against Cincinnati reliever Amir Garrett, prompting Riggleman to go to Jared Hughes out of his bullpen. Hughes made quick work of Hoskins, needing just two pitches to induce a ground ball for a 6-4-3 inning-ending double play. The Reds added a couple of insurance runs in the eighth on an RBI double by Scooter Gennett and Votto's second RBI single. After logging just three hits in the first eight games of the Reds' homestand, Votto went 3-for-4 with a walk and two RBIs on Saturday. Hughes got five outs to record his seventh save, including a perfect ninth inning. MOMENTS THAT MATTERED The Reds missed some opportunities early in the game, including the pinch-hit situation that led to Harvey's exit. But Cincinnati was able to break through on the third time through the order. Hamilton led the sixth inning off with a double that caromed off a diving Franco at third base and into foul territory. Jose Peraza bunted Hamilton over, and he scored on Votto's single. A fielder's choice from Eugenio Suarez -- whose club-record-tying five-game home run streak came to an end -- brought in another run and gave the Reds a 4-2 lead. "It almost came back to haunt us, because as soon as we missed those opportunities Hoskins hit the homer to put them ahead," Riggleman said. "But we got back in it with a big hit by Billy. Those two [hits in the eighth inning] were huge too, with the hits by Scooter and Joey." SOUND SMART Harvey's velocity was up from the start on Saturday. His strikeouts of Hoskins and Odubel Herrera in the first inning came on fastballs that clocked in 97.1 and 97.9 mph, respectively. It was the first time Harvey got multiple swinging strikes on 97-plus-mph fastballs since Game 5 of the 2015 World Series, according to Statcast™. HE SAID IT "We are playing good baseball. That is a really good team over there in first place. It is a measuring stick for us for where we would like to be at some point. We are playing well, and I hope we keep it going." -- Barnhart UP NEXT The Reds close out this four-game set with the Phillies and a 10-game homestand when Luis Castillo starts Sunday at 1:10 p.m. ET at Great American Ball Park. Castillo made it 5 1/3 innings in his last outing against the Cardinals, letting up a run on four hits with five strikeouts and a walk. The right-hander has allowed three runs or fewer in his last four starts, though he is looking for his first win since June 22. Right-hander Zach Eflin will be on the mound for the Phillies. Hughes honored to help Hooton end PED use Garrett feeling better after tweaking ankle Friday; Schebler progressing in rehab stint By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Jul. 28th, 2018 CINCINNATI -- A group that works to eradicate performance-enhancing drugs like steroids in all sports, the Taylor Hooton Foundation actively recruits Major League Baseball players to help spread its message. The foundation announced this weekend that its advisory board of active players reached a record 38 players. That includes Reds reliever Jared Hughes and outfielder Adam Duvall. Hughes has been involved since 2012, when he met foundation president Don Hooton Jr. "It's incredible how I got involved. Taylor Hooton's brother, Don. Jr., was married to our real-estate agent who sold us our house in Texas," Hughes said on Saturday. "Her name is Chelsea, and it was a completely random occurrence and I ended up meeting him through her. I was totally on board with this, and it was like fate in my opinion. "Growing up in the late '90s and early 2000s, there were rumors about performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. That broke my heart as a fan. That's the last thing I wanted to see. I wanted all of my players to be role models. I know it's not always the case, but I wanted my favorite players to be hard working and that they got there because it was all hard work and no cheating involved." Members of the Taylor Hooton Foundation advisory board believe using performance-enhancing drugs is illegal and dangerous and that any athletes who use such drugs are cheating their respective sports.

CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Intensity is always Tony Cingrani's specialty Cingrani has one speed, and that's going all out By C. Trent Rosecrans GOODYEAR, ARIZ. — Tony Cingrani gets angry every time he gives up a hit. It doesn’t matter if it’s a spring training exhibition game – like the one he will start Saturday against the Colorado Rockies – or against the St. Louis Cardinals. As the Reds’ second-year starter sees it, it’s his job to not give up any hits and if he gives up a hit, he didn’t do his job. That makes him angry – and like a famous fictional character, you wouldn’t like him when he’s angry. “That’s how I get myself fired up. I need to throw harder, so I try to get super angry and throw it harder,” Cingrani said. “I’m not turning green – I’m trying to scare somebody and see what happens.” Cingrani’s intensity even turned into a meme among Reds fans, with the “Cingrani Face” becoming synonymous with an intense, scary mug. Cingrani said he saw that, and even chuckles quietly about it.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings February 12, 2019 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1888-The Reds begin a six-week exhibition tour through Texas, Louisiana and Alabama MLB.COM Duke returns to Reds on one-year deal Cincy designates right-hander Lopez for assignment in corresponding move By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Feb. 11th, 2019 GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- This past offseason featured multiple trades by the Reds, but Monday officially marked their first free-agent acquisition, when lefty reliever Zach Duke signed a one-year, $2 million contract. To make room for Duke, right-handed pitcher Jose Lopez was designated for assignment. Duke, who will turn 36 in April, agreed to terms with Cincinnati on Feb. 2. The club will get added veteran presence in its bullpen. He is a 14-year Major League veteran. In 72 games combined for the Twins and Mariners last season, Duke was 5-5 with a 4.15 ERA and 1.50 WHIP. Over 52 innings, he allowed 57 hits including one home run with 21 walks and 51 strikeouts. Left-handed hitters batted .220 against him, compared to .311 by right-handed hitters. But the Reds do not view the ground-ball pitcher as a one-out left-handed situational reliever. "He's a guy that likes to pitch a full inning and expects to be in there to pitch a full inning," Reds president of baseball operations Dick Williams said. "He's had a lot of success against lefties, but we are comfortable that he's not necessarily going to be a one-out guy." Duke is returning to the Reds after pitching for them during the 2013 season, a stint that helped turn his career around after being released by the Nationals earlier that year.

  • Clips for 7-12-10
    MEDIA CLIPS – February 3, 2017 Young arms among Rockies' camp invites Veteran batters Denorfia, Reynolds also on non-roster list By Thomas Harding / MLB.com | @harding_at_mlb | February 2nd, 2017 DENVER -- Two fast-rising pitching prospects, right-hander Ryan Castellani and lefty Sam Howard, will make their first appearances in Major League camp this spring for the Rockies, who announced their non-roster invitees on Thursday. The group includes veterans Chris Denorfia, a right-handed-hitting outfielder, andMark Reynolds, who was the Rockies' primary first baseman last year. In all, the Rockies invited 22 players, including nine pitchers, to bring the total number to 62. Pitchers and catchers will have their first workout on Feb. 14, and the initial full-squad workout is Feb. 20. Castellani, who turns 21 on April 1, is a 2014 second-round pick out of Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix. He went 7- 8 with a 3.81 ERA and 142 strikeouts in 167 2/3 innings last season at Class A Advanced Modesto against older competition in the California League.
