Iglesias was named the Reds' Opening Day starter Monday, John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Iglesias was one of the top candidates to get the Opening Day nod, and the team made it official Monday afternoon. The 25-year-old will square off against the Phillies on April 4, which will mark just his 19th start in a Reds uniform. He'll be followed in the rotation by Brandon Finnegan, but the Reds have not yet announced a No. 3 starter for the opening series. It was revealed, however, that Alfredo Simon will begin the season fourth in the rotation. The team also hopes to have Anthony DeSclafani, who's struggled this spring, ready to start by April 10.
