Agrazal had his first MLB growing pains against the Mets last Friday, allowing five runs in 5 1/3 innings and giving up three homers. That snapped a string of four straight quality starts, but the rookie can get back on the horse against the Reds.
RHP
10-4, 2.63 ERA, 151 SO
Castillo is coming off one of his worst starts of 2019 when he allowed a season-high six earned runs over five innings to the Rockies on Friday. Hitters were aggressive early in counts and were ready for early fastballs, two of which were slugged for homers.

Greinke pitched well in his start on Friday against the Marlins, allowing one run over six innings. He left with a 2-1 lead, but the bullpen could not hold it as Miami rallied for two runs in the ninth to win, 3-2.

Waguespack held the Rays to three runs over five innings in his last outing, but walked three and struck out two. He has earned a longer look, and forcing weaker contact on the ground could be the key for the big right-hander.
RHP
6-10, 5.03 ERA, 126 SO
Junis is coming off his poorest start in a month. After three straight outstanding starts, the right-hander gave up six runs and 10 hits over six-plus innings against the Indians on Friday in an 8-3 loss. He walked two and struck out five.

Ryu admits he hasn't had his command as of late, running in to some trouble last time out against the Nationals, but the Cy Young frontrunner has still allowed just four runs in his four most recent starts with a 1.35 ERA over that span and a 1.74 ERA on the season.
RHP
10-5, 4.68 ERA, 150 SO

Urquidy has been terrific his last two times out, allowing a combined two runs over 13 innings. He has walked two and struck out 15 in that stretch. He's not been overpowering, but he has limited hard-hit contact by leaning on a four-pitch mix.
RHP
6-3, 3.41 ERA, 47 SO
Plesac put his athleticism on full display in his last start, making a full-extension diving grab in foul territory near the first-base dugout. But the 24-year-old also shined on the rubber, allowing one unearned run in seven frames.
