Cincinnati Reds pitcher Brandon Finnegan (29) prepares to throw a pitch.
Believe it or not, Brandon Finnegan is still part of the Cincinnati Reds organization. The former first-round pick draws the start in today’s Cactus League game against the Oakland Athletics at Hohokam Stadium.
The game is set to begin at 3 PM ET, and several of the Reds’ regulars who were absent from yesterday’s game against the Cleveland Indians are in David Bell’s starting lineup today. However, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reported that Jesse Winker was a late-scratch due to a sore right hip.
