Lodolo is still battling for an Opening Day roster spot and slot in the rotation, as is fellow prospect Hunter Greene, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
If that last spot comes down to Greene vs. Lodolo, Greene has an advantage by being on the 40-man roster. However, it's possible that both pitchers make it, as only the top two spots in the rotation are currently settled with both Luis Castillo and Mike Minor not ready for Opening Day. Other options include Reiver Sanmartin, Ben Lively and Tony Santillan.
