Cueto goes the distanceJohnny Cueto, SP, CINNews: Reds starter Johnny Cueto was able to remain unbeaten after logging his first complete game of the season during Friday night's contest against the Reds. Cueto, who has making his sixth start of the year, allowed just one run on seven hits in the 6-1 victory over Pittsburgh. The lone run he surrendered came in the fourth inning on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Pedro Alvarez. However, the right-hander limited the Pirates to just two hits over his final five innings of work and needed just 110 pitches to log his fifth career game of his career. He finished with four strikeouts without issuing a walk and is now 4-0 on the season. “I was really struggling,” he said. “The Heat was getting to me. It was hot. Bronson (Arroyo) told me a couple of things and got me going.”Analysis: While Cueto only logged four strikeouts against the Pirates, he was still dominant on the mound Friday night. The 26-year-old has now won each of his last three starts and was able to lower his ERA to 1.32 on the season. In fact, Cueto has logged a 2.15 ERA since the start of the 2011 season -- which is tops in baseball -- and he is now 12-5 over that stretch. He will look to keep things rolling when he makes his next start, which is scheduled for Wednesday at Milwaukee. Cueto is 2-2 with a 4.25 ERA in nine career starts against the Brewers. Fantasy owners should leave him active in all formats heading into his next outing.
