  • 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
    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.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings July 21, 2017 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1962-The Reds purchase Joe Nuxhall from their San Diego farm club in the Pacific Coast League MLB.COM Castillo corrects course in solid 6-IP outing By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com | @m_sheldon | July 20th, 2017 + 15 COMMENTS CINCINNATI -- Reds rookie starting pitcher Luis Castillo hasn't had any easy opponents through six big league starts. The flame- throwing righty has faced only first-place teams or playoff contenders thus far -- the Nationals (twice), Brewers, Rockies and D- backs (twice). The first encounter with Arizona yielded Castillo's first win. On Thursday, a rough first inning was followed by an important course correction, but it was too late in Cincinnati's 12-2 loss to the D-backs. "If you're going to face these type of hitters, you have to be 100 percent ready, mentally and physically," Castillo said via translator Julio Morillo. "You know you can't make mistakes, because you know you're going to pay for it." Castillo, gave up four earned runs and four hits over six innings with one walk and seven strikeouts. But his first three batters of the day reached safely, with bad consquences. Following a leadoff walk to Daniel Descalso on five pitches, Chris Iannetta hit a double and Jake Lamb slugged a 0-1 changeup for a three-run home run to center field that quickly made it a 3-0 game. After the homer, Castillo retired 12 of the next 13 and 18 of his last 20 batters.
