The Reds are being extra cautious with Sean Marshall (shoulder) this spring. "He's just a little stiff," Reds manager Bryan Price said on Saturday. "We're going to be on the front end of this thing. We're going to back him off. He doesn't need a full Spring Training to be ready for Opening Day. He did all of his offseason throwing. Slowing him down a little bit here, hopefully, will pay dividends later in the spring." The left-hander was plagued by shoulder issues most of 2013, and the Reds are hoping to avoid a repeat this year. Marshall has yet to appear in a game for the Reds this spring.
