The first two games of the series against the Tampa Bay Rays have gone so well that the Cincinnati Reds can afford to rest two of their key players in Sunday’s series finale. Centerfielder Nick Senzel and shortstop Kyle Farmer were given the day off, while Joey Votto remains out with a back injury.

Votto hasn’t played since July 4; however, his injury appears mild as the Reds have refused to place the former MVP on the injured list.
