Despite Wade Miley’s foot injury, which put him on the 10-day injured list Friday, the Cincinnati Reds will have a lot of continuity with their pitching staff.
The Reds will keep their starting pitchers on regular rest, four days between starts, and essentially push back Miley’s spot in the rotation with Monday’s off day. Here are the Reds’ probable starters for the upcoming week:
Tuesday at Washington – Tyler Mahle.
Wednesday at Washington – Jeff Hoffman.
Thursday at Washington – Sonny Gray.
Friday at Chicago Cubs – TBA.
Saturday at Chicago – Luis Castillo.
Sunday at Chicago – Potentially Miley if he’s ready to return from the IL.
“As long as (Miley’s) going the right direction that would be the plan,” Reds manager David Bell said. “With our travel after a night game (in Washington) with a day game in Chicago, it actually works out kind of nice for a spot starter to meet us there and not be a part of that day the day before.”
