Looks like all the best players made it. Would have liked to see leake make it over Simon
Fine by me.
Cairo is an automatic out at this point but must be the glue that holds this ship together from the sound of things.
I'm glad to see both Simon and Hoover make it. Sorry to see Ondrusek not, but just not enough room (no need) for a 12th pitcher.
After seeing the rotation and now the roster I think the Reds will lose and
Dusty will get fired.
When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

looks good to me
Tell me that next week, Dusty is too loyal to his players role on the team. Cueto is great but Latos with his history against San Fran should be starting game 1 while Homer with his recent success and his sucess on the road should start game 2 while Cueto should go in game 3 at home where he has been lights out.
Cairo is an absolute waste of a roster spot, they would have been better off with Meseroco as a third catcher so Navarro could be used as a pinch hitter.
There I elaborated.

Leake being left off is also questionable IMO, he is a good base runner and is a better PH option than Valdez and Cairo.

nope. You can't judge such things based on how a guy does in the last inning with his team up nine runs (though he didn't give up a run). You base it on their most likely role in a tightly contested game. In Arrendondo's case, it's serving as a very short bridge between starter and our three best relievers. That's not a role you'd suddenly invent for your fifth starter. If Leake had made the roster, it'd have been at Simon's expense.
