Pitching rotation after the ASB

[brm7675]

Starting with the home Cardinal series to kick off the so called second half of the season, how would you set up the rotation?

I would go with:

Cueto
Leake
Latos
Homer
Bronson

That gives you a bit of difference in style and power...

[Who Dey Time]

I agree with this although it wouldn't surprise me to see Arroyo and Leake trade spots in your order.

[Ironman92]

As long as Homer and Latos aren't back to back.

I'd go...

Latos (might want to not give him too long a time off)
Cueto
Bronson
Homer
Leake....switch Bronson and Leake if you want.

I'll add to that saying I would rather not have Bronson and Leake back to back either... So doesn't sound terrible to me. Interesting consideration on Latos.

[swaisuc]

I'm with the majority here.
Latos
Cueto
Arroyo/Leake
Homer
Arroyo/Leake

[P.E.R#14]

Cueto
Leake
Matt Garza
Latos
Arroyo

[Larkin88]

Cueto
Leake
Matt Garza
Latos
Arroyo

I see your Matt Garza and raise you:

Greinke
Cueto
Leake
Latos
Arroyo

Hey, it's fun to dream, right?

[Maker_84]

I wouldn't mess with the starting pitching too much because they've been great so far.

Yeah...kinda assumed those two were separated

Dusty going with

Latos
Leake
Cueto
Bronson
Homer

[The Rage]

My guess is:
Latos
Arroyo
Cueto
Bailey
Leake

The Reds will want to give Cueto a week off to rest while he gets the last game in the Cardinal series. Arroyo will get Saturday even though Leake or Bailey argueably should have it. I don't like the matchup with Bronson, but they won't be able to resist.

Basically Bailey and especially Leake are going to get lonnnnnnng breaks.
