Edinson Volquez to Face Reds Tonight

The Reds will see if Edinson Volquez is making the progress they hoped he would while in its rotation first hand.

He will pitch against the Reds tonight 10:05 eastern in Peoria, AZ for his new San Diego teammates.

"I expect him to have a good year.  Most of the time the second year after elbow surgery is better," Dusty Baker said.

Volquez replacement and the man, who the Reds got for Volquez pitched five strong innings last night for the Reds against the Texas Rangers.  Latos had his second good outing in a row.

"Latos is trying to get to where Volquez was.  Volquez was an all-star," Baker said.  "We got Latos because he has a tremendous upside potential."
