Pitching assignments
Good morning from Goodyear, where I’m starting to see a lot of NASCAR haulers parked at some nearby hotels. The Phoenix race on the Sprint Cup schedule is Sunday, which happens to be the first day of Reds exhibition play.
Got some pitching assignments for the intrasquad game and the first few Cactus League games.
On Saturday for the intrasquad game, Travis Wood will get two innings, and one inning each for Daryl Thompson, Jerry Gil, Matt Klinker, Logan Ondrusek and Jordan Smith.
On Sunday @ CLE: Edinson Volquez is scheduled to start vs. the Indians and go two innings. Matt Maloney and Sam LeCure are expected to follow with two innings each. Daniel Ray Herrera and Carlos Fisher will each get an inning.
Monday vs CLE: Bronson Arroyo for two innings, followed by one inning from Aroldis Chapman, Francisco Cordero, Dontrelle Willis and Jose Arredondo, Nick Masset and Bill Bray
Tue split squad @ OAK: Mike Leake starts
Tue split squad @LAA Johnny Cueto starts
