SOURCE: John Fay, Cincinnati Enquirer | Insight: The injury shouldn't have any long-term effect on Cueto but it's looking like he probably won't make his next start Thursday against the Marlins. Look for Cincinnati to call someone up from Triple-A if Cueto ends up on the DL. | | |

Description: Cincinnati righthander Johnny Cueto left Saturday's game against Pittsburgh because of an arm injury. | Insight: He exited in the fifth after giving up two hits and one run in 4 1/3 innings.

Description: Reds starter Johnny Cueto was dominant Monday in the season opener against Los Angeles. | Insight: Cueto allowed three hits and one earned run in seven innings of work.

Description: Cincinnati ace Johnny Cueto has been taken off of the team's NLDS roster. Cueto suffered a strained oblique during his start Saturday in Game 1. | Insight: League rules prohibit Cueto from pitching for the Reds again until the World Series (if they make it that far), so obviously this injury is serious. Mike Leake has been added to the roster in Cueto's place and will start Game 4 Wednesday against San Francisco. | | |

Homer Bailey will start the game instead. | Insight: Cueto left his Game 1 start in the first inning due to back spasms.

Description: Reds starter Johnny Cueto hopes to be ready to start Game 3 of the NLDS against the Giants after leaving Game 1 in the first inning with back pain. | Insight: Cueto (19-9, 2.78 ERA) only faced one batter before having to exit with back spasms but the Reds won Game 1 anyway. Projected Game 3 starter Mat Latos followed winning pitcher Sam LeCure with four innings of one-run ball, so Game 3 now needs a starter on the Reds side. Cueto could be that guy if his back holds up. He said his back felt much better after the game, and it's possible Cueto could gut out a Game 3 start if he has a cortisone shot. | | |
