The Royals were close to acquiring Reds ace Johnny Cueto tonight, according
to Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports. The reporters hear that
one of the players the Reds would have acquired “did not check out medically,
” causing the deal to fall through.
Tonight at Coors Field, Cueto tossed eight scoreless innings in what might
have been his last start in a Reds uniform. The deal with the Royals was
apparently close enough that Reds pitcher Michael Lorenzen had been warming
up before the game, prepared to take Cueto’s place. Cueto was not happy
finding out about the potential deal in this manner, later telling reporters,
“I don’t want to use a bad word in this location, but it was really bad how
I found out what happen.” Mark Sheldon and Dargan Southard of MLB.com
quoted catcher Brayan Pena saying about Cueto, “I’m telling you, today he
was on a mission. I saw something in his eyes that I never saw before.”
