The hard-throwing 22-year-old has been the talk of Reds camp, allowing one run and striking out eight batters in nine exhibition innings. Cueto has been so dominant that veteran-friendly manager Dusty Baker has suggested that Mock Draft Central`s No. 24 ranked prospect could open the season in the Cincinnati rotation.
In three minor league stops last season, Cueto won 12 games and put up a 3.07 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 170 strikeouts in 161.1 innings pitched -- his spring success isn`t a fluke, the guy can pitch.
Cueto has been selected in 83.3 percent of NFBC drafts with an ADP of 398.77.
