Look: Reds Manager Terry Francona Provides Positive Injury Update on Hunter Greene

In this story:
Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona provided a positive update on ace Hunter Greene on Monday on MLB Network Radio.
"Yeah, I think he's all set," Francona said. "He actually threw a bullpen yesterday on the game mound because he wanted to make it as real as they could. I think we are all set for when we get back to Cincinnati and play the Cubs, he will be able to slot in there."
Greene is 4-2 with a 2.36 ERA over 45 2/3 innings pitched. The right-hander has a WHIP of 0.81 to go along with 61 strikeouts and just eight walks this season.
Greene will likely take Petty's spot in the rotation when he returns. The 25-year-old has been one of the best pitchers in baseball over the past calendar year.
