What's YOUR 2010 Reds Rotation/Bullpen

We have a lineup thread, how about a pitching thread.

My Rotation
1. Homer (this is slightly bias as he is my favorite player, put him where you'd like)
2. Arroyo
3. Harang
4. Cueto
5. Lehr/Maloney/... (undecided 5th spot)

Bullpen
MR - Owings
Fisher
Herrera
Burton
SU - Masset
Rhodes
CP - Cordero (he's gonna be here, might as well accept that)


Thoughts? Opinions?

Re: What's YOUR 2010 Reds Rotation/Bullpen

My gut says if Harang is still with team, Dusty will maybe say " due to recovering" or something like that..he will hold Harang back a couple of days and BA will be OD starter with Bailey going in the 2 hole.
I was actually thinking the other day, it wouldnt surprise me if Harang went to Dusty and said BA deserves to be OD starter after his 09 season.

Re: What's YOUR 2010 Reds Rotation/Bullpen

My prediction of the rotation:
Aaron Harang
Bronson Arroyo (Respect Dude!)
Homer Bailey/Johnny Cueto (better Spring)
Homer Bailey/Johnny Cueto
(Insert hot starting FA/Young guy here)

What I wish...
Johnny Cueto/Homer Bailey (better spring)
Aaron Harang
Johnny Cueto/Homer Bailey (mix up the hard tossers and the control/movement guys)
Bronson Arroyo
(whoever "wins" it)

Pen: Believe that Cordero gets traded for a decent return.
CL: Nick Masset

SU:
Arthur Rhodes

Other Pen:
Daniel Ray Herrera
Carlos Fischer
Jared Burton
Micah Owings
A "reclamation" project like Brandon Webb/Justin Ducherster With them being 1st option into the rotation when needed and a chance to win it outright in ST.
Bill Bray if still hurt open competition.

Re: What's YOUR 2010 Reds Rotation/Bullpen

I'm thinking Homer could well have developed to be the hammer we all hoped for, due to the pitch he learned from Lehr.

Re: What's YOUR 2010 Reds Rotation/Bullpen

Mark Matt Maloney down as the final starter. All these designations about who is a #1 or #2 or #3 are meaningless. You need five starters and each one is the man on the day he takes the bump.

Immerse yourself in Bakermetrics. It will all make sense soon.
