With Cueto Back, Reds Send Tony Cingrani To Triple-A Louisville
With Johhny Cueto returning to action, the Cincinnati Reds had to send LHP Tony Cingrani back to Triple-A Louisville. Cingrani had pitched extremely well for the Reds over his six starts going 2-0 with a 3.27 ERA and a 1.03 WHIP. He also struck out 41 and walked 9. If Mike Leake struggles at all as the fifth man on the Reds rotation, Cingrani would gladly make his way back.

Cingrani optioned to Louisville
Tony Cingrani will now have to mow down AAAers.
Tony Cingrani did a most admirable job filling in for Johnny Cueto while our ace was on the DL. In 6 starts he went 2-0 with a 3.27 ERA. Among the starting pitchers, that ERA was bested only by Mat Latos (who had an unholy April) and the man whose spot he was taking. His 1.2 Ks per inning pitched led the squad.
Unfortunately for Cingrani...
Reds shuffle rotation and weekly blogger question
After going for so long without any days off, it feels weird as a fan of the Cincinnati Reds for them to have two off days so close together. There was no game yesterday, but the team still made some news by tweaking their starting rotation.
The Reds have pushed Tony Cingrani back a day in their rotation, keeping right-hander Mat Latos on his regular rest, pitching Thursday in Miami...
Tony Cingrani or Mike Leake?
When Johnny Cueto went down with an injury earlier in the season, the Reds were forced to call up prospect Tony Cingrani to fill the void. Nobody expected Cingrani to be as effective as he is at the Major League level this early. In fact, Cingrani has been so good that many people are calling for the Reds to send down “veteran” Mike Leake and keep Cingrani in the rotation...
Tony Cingrani, Meet The World
World, meet Tony. Tony Cingrani, a 23-year old rookie phenom for the Cincinnati Reds, was given the ball today in an effort to squelch the Washington Nationals and their quest for a four game sweep. Mr. C obliged with a gem. Cingrani left after the sixth giving up only two hits while recording 11 wiffle-ball strikeouts (including four K’s in the 4th). Three innings later...
Cingrani whiffs 11 in Reds' 5-2 win

Eight MLB rookies who you should know about
Here are some predictions, analysis, and lame jokes about some of MLB’s new facesTony Cingrani, SP, CINCingrani is one of my favorite rookies for this season. Now before you go doing backflips down the hallway about this comparison, read everything first. He and Chris Sale have followed a similar career path to date.

Looking at the first two starts of Tony Cingrani for the Reds
Tony Cingrani now has two starts under his belt in the Major Leagues and the results have been quite strong: 12 innings, 2.25 ERA, 10 hits, 3 walks and 17 strikeouts. That is flat out getting things done. The two starts have both been good, but they have been quite different from each other. In his first start he lasted just 5 innings as he struggled with his control at times, while...

Is Tony Cingrani ready for the big show?
When one door closes, another door opens.
Such is the case with Johnny Cueto and Tony Cingrani -- the latter of which figures to replace Cueto's spot in the rotation once the time comes.
On Monday, the Reds promoted RHP Justin Freeman from Triple-A Louisville to provide some help to a weary bullpen. However, Cingrani is expected to make Cueto's next scheduled start...
