Mat Latos offered some harsh criticism for the Reds in spring training before cooler heads eventually prevailed when he visited Cincinnati months later. The right-hander is likely still relishing his first matchup with his former club, however, and takes the mound in Thursday's series opener between the Los Angeles Dodgers and visiting Reds. Latos (4-8, 4.67 ERA) went 28-11 over 65 starts for the Reds from 2012-13, but endured a tumultuous final season last year.
