The Cincinnati Reds have forged a new identity with an influx of young talent guided by manager David Bell.
The visiting Reds will try for their second series victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers this season when the teams meet Saturday, one day after Bell agreed to a three-year contract extension.
Bell will send right-hander Luke Weaver to the mound Saturday. The former member of the National League West when he pitched for the Arizona Diamondbacks is having a rough time in his first season with the Reds. Dodgers rookie right-hander Emmet Sheehan will get at least one more chance to make an impression. Sheehan is scheduled to make his seventh career start knowing that personnel changes are on the way.
If his debut was the high point, his most recent start was the low when he gave up eight runs on eight hits over 3 2/3 innings Sunday against the Texas Rangers.
