Cingrani called back up
Cueto is down once again, so our man gets the call. He's scheduled to start Tuesday

RE: Cingrani called back up
EXCELLENT outing for Tony. Performances like this will make it inconceivable to send him back down again.
"Reds starter Tony Cingrani, starting in place of the injured Cueto, fared much better than his counterpart in the left-hander's first Major League start since April 17. It was his third start -- and first win -- against the Cubs as he moved to 3-0.
Cingrani struck out five, while walking one and scattering four hits. He also went 2-for-2 at the plate with a bunt and infield single.
"Cingrani was outstanding tonight. He showed his improvement that he went down to work on," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "He threw some quality breaking balls, changeups."
The Reds have now won 16 of their last 23 road games, with a little help to their home away from home in the Windy City.
"It's a nice count," Baker said."

According to the Cincy Enquirer this will probably be the only start for Tony and he will be sent back down.

RE: Cingrani called back up
I'm always one to disagree with Dusty Baker out of principle, but the reasoning is sound, I suppose. A little more work on the moving pitches could go a long way
