Reds starter Johnny Cueto said he felt something "sharp" in his right arm while throwing a changeup Saturday night against the Pirates and will travel back to Cincinnati to have his right triceps examined by team doctors, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

"Yeah (I'm worried)," he said. "I was feeling good. I wanted to stay in the game."

His next start is scheduled for Thursday against the Marlins.

Tony Cingrani could be an option to make that start if Cueto is unable.
