The Cincinnati Reds are one of the hottest teams in MLB right now, as the Colorado Rockies learned last night in a 5-4 loss. (This marked the Reds’ ninth consecutive win.) Tonight, the Rockies will try to even the series.
Originally, Kyle Freeland was scheduled to start for the Rockies. However, he is recovering from a virus, so Noah Davis will start instead. On April 30, Davis was placed on the IL with right elbow inflammation. In 11.2 IP with the Rockies, Davis has a 6.17 ERA and a 1.800 WHIP.
The Rockies hope Davis can provide some relief to a struggling rotation.
