The Cincinnati Reds have been really good of late as they enter today at 41-398 a season high three games over the .500 mark and they are coming off a "W" in McCovey Cove last night 5-2. The Winner the Red Legs Ace Johnny Cueto and a 2013 Season that was hindered with Arm Issues Cueto has bounced back leading the Red Starting Staff.

Cueto also is leading the Senior Circuit in almost every category as we go to press. He has been dominant even though his record is just 8-5 which is solid but he has lost a few like most with limited run support. A quick peak at Cueto's Dominance in the NL through June 27th, 2014.

Johnny Cueto RHP Red Legs 2014 Numbers
Note: NL Rank in Parenthesis

8-5 W-L (4th in Wins) 1.88 ERA (1st) 124.1 IP (1st) 122 SO (2nd) Hitters hitting .169 (1st) .083 WHIP (1st) 17 Starts (tied 1st)      

All those numbers if they stay true for 162 will land Cueto undoubtedly the NL Cy Young and I know it's early but what an impressive 2014 by the young man.

The Reds still 7.5 games back of the NL Central leading "Brew Crew" has work to do but if Cueto keep dominating and the other Red Leg Starters pick up their game..lookout!
