Bronson Arroyo News
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Bronson Arroyo was placed on the 10-day disabled list on Monday, a day after admitting he had been receiving cortisone shots in his pitching shoulder since Spring Training. Arroyo has been hit hard this season, posting a 3-6 record, 7.35 ERA, and 2.92 home runs per nine innings. He gave some quotes after Sunday's game indicating he may be at the end of the line regarding his big league pitching career. The Reds also placed shortstop Zack Cozart on the DL, calling up outfielder Jesse Winker and right-handed pitcher Ariel Hernandez to take his and Arroyo's spots on the active roster. Starting pitchers Homer Bailey and Brandon Finnegan could both be back from the DL by the time Arroyo is eligible to return which further clouds Arroyo's status with the team going forward.
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Bronson Arroyo's attempt at making a comeback after 2 1/2 injury-plagued years took another hit on Sunday. The veteran right-hander was hit hard by the Los Angeles Dodgers, allowing five runs in three innings while striking out three. Arroyo also revealed after the game that he has been receiving cortisone shots in his right shoulder since Spring Training to help him manage his pain. Arroyo later went on to admit that he has thought about the fact that his time as a big league pitcher may be coming to an end. After the game, he was quoted as saying, "Have I thought `This time might be my last time on the field'? Yeah". With Homer Bailey and Brandon Finnegan both expected to rejoin the Reds rotation by the end of June, Arroyo probably won't be around much longer.
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Bronson Arroyo struggled on the mound on Monday. He allowed the San Diego Padres to rack up nine runs on 13 hits in 4 2/3 innings of work. Arroyo has not been pitching well for the Reds this season, posting a 7.01 ERA and allowing 2.91 home runs per nine innings. With both starters Homer Bailey and Brandon Finnegan expected to rejoin the Cincinnati rotation by the end of June, Arroyo could be approaching the end of his run in the Reds starting rotation. For now, it appears Arroyo will make a few more starts, meaning daily players should be getting in line to stack opposing batters against him. The Los Angeles Dodgers will take their hacks against Arroyo in his next time out.
