Johnny Cueto Scratched From Sunday Night Start

Johnny Cueto was scheduled to start against the St. Louis Cardinals in the nationally televised Sunday night game but a blister on his index finger will delay his first start of the second half.

Homer Bailey will start instead.

"Johnny developed a blister in his bullpen session," Dusty Baker said.  "Homer will start.  Arroyo will be pushed back until Monday.  Arroyo and Leake are too similar.  We wanted to break them up.  With 13 games in a row then 17 in a row after our first off day, there isn't a chance to rearrange the rotation.  Cueto will start Tuesday."
