4 years agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Tejay Antone threw three scoreless innings in a 6-4 Cactus League win over the Colorado Rockies on Monday. Antone struck out three while allowing just two hits in the outing. The 27-year-old is one of the Reds pitchers fighting for the fifth spot in the starting rotation, battling with Michael Lorenzen, Jose De Leon, and Jeff Hoffman. Antone has made an impressive case to win the spot thus far, posting five scoreless innings with eight strikeouts, but most onlookers expect Lorenzen to wind up winning the job. Antone is likely to open the season pitching out of the bullpen.--Matt T - RotoBaller
