Stephenson (neck) will start for the Reds in their Cactus League matchup against the Diamondbacks on Monday.

Stephenson was delayed for a few days at the start of camp after suffering a crick in his neck. The injury wasn't supposed to be serious and the issue appears to have gone away. Provided that there are no reports that the issue is lingering and affecting his performance, he should remain in the mix to claim one of the final spots in the Reds' rotation this spring.
