JOHNNY CUETO RUMORS & GOSSIP

Be Cautious in Tabbing Cueto an Ace, Yet

By now most people around baseball consider Johnny Cueto to be the ace of the Cincinnati Reds pitching staff. With his low-mid 90's fastball, tantalizing curveball and unpredictable changeup, he's a challenge to any opposing hitter that steps in the box against him. The only real threat between him and winning a Cy Young Award at this point appears to be bad chicken wings....

State of the Farm – Starting Pitching

Daniel Corcino heads the group of starting pitchers in the farm system. He had a breakout season in 2011 where his stats finally matched up with his scouting reports.

Cueto has nothing left to prove in 2011

CINCINNATI Johnny Cueto has proven without a shadow of a hanging slider that he is No. 1 with the Cincinnati Reds for 2012 the ace, the stopper, numero uno. So there is no reason for Cueto to trudge back up the pitching hill for another 2011 start, nothing to prove, nothing to gain. That doesn't mean he won't do it. It jus means he doesn't need to do it. Oh, maybe it would be...

In it, I tried to temper enthusiasm about Cueto as his peripheral numbers did not point to the low ERA continuing. This morning, before heading to work, I made a similar comment, but this time focused on BABIP. Heads promptly exploded. Thus, I thought now might be a...
