Edinson is Back

[semiotter]

He is to start Sat night. He said he is feeling great and it looks like it. While in Louisville her was 4-0 with a 1.75 era.

Also Reds signed Russ Springer to a minor leauge deal.

If Volquez can continue to pitch like he has in his rehab stints, we will be more than ok heading into the 2nd half !!!

If he is healthy he will have about 15 starts to the end of the year. Let's hope we see the Volquez of 08 in those starts.

Lets hope we continue to see some of the 2010 Volquez. The one that has been throwing the ball 97mph during his rehab !!!

I know what you mean Griz, I was just adding to it. He wasn't able to throw that hard before the surgery, but there was a good article I read somewhere about how he's had to prepare and how much effort he has put into his rehab. They were saying how most of the time, the pitchers struggle with control after Tommy John, but Volquez hasn't really. They think it's due to how much effort he put into coming back from the surgery.

Anyway around, I'm glad he's back and can't wait to see how he does his first start back with the team.

If he does well, hopefully the bullpen won't blow it for him.
