He left Tuesday's start after 4 2/3 innings. | Insight: The Reds are counting on Latos to be their ace after trading for him in the offseason, but you shouldn't count on the 6-foot-6 right-hander to be your fantasy ace.

Since the Padres have nothing to play for this season it would not be surprising to see Latos shut down for some rest. | | |
