The Reds offense hasn't been near the same away from Great American Ball Park, but we're betting on the arm of Luis Castillo along with some regression from Giants starter Kevin Gausman. Gausman has been great so far, but he's not this good and the Reds had him in 2019. His profile hasn't changed a ton, so let's see what the Reds' scouting department can do. On the Castillo side, he's an elite-level ace when he's right and was nearly unhittable in his only other career outing in Oracle (2019).
After a horrific first start, Reds ace Luis Castillo dominated the Pirates last time out, tossing seven scoreless innings. Look for him to pitch well again at San Francisco, which averages just 3.44 runs per game, seventh-fewest in MLB. Giants starter Kevin Gausman impressed last year and in his first two starts this season, but it should be noted he's 0-3 with a 12.79 ERA alltime versus Cincinnati. (Joey Votto is 4 for 5 against him). Back the 7-3 Reds as underdogs Tuesday night.
