Reds add bullpen lefty, Duke

[kevin]

There was talk on here Reds bullpen needed a lefty. Reds added one. This pitching coach we got from Brewers knows a lot more about pitching than Reds organization has, so if he has brought in Duke, I trust in what he did at Milwaukee as pitching coach.

Is this the same Zac Duke the Reds drafted a few years ago?

Don't know if we drafted him, but he had a cup of coffee with the Reds (10 innings) at the end of the 2013 season.  We signed him after some other team released him that year.

Must not be the same guy I'm thinking of. Hope he works out for the Reds.
