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. |

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.
