Pitching
Seeing how Mr. Chapman has rebounded from his brief hiccup earlier in the season it begs the question just how good can he be and can he be "ACE" material for this team? When he is on, which he basically has been since his return he is down right nasty. Right now he has the ability to get hitters out, the question is basically durability. It is going to be interesting to see how the Reds handle him in the upcoming offseason because with what we have seen so far since his signing is that he is an incredible talent the likes the Reds have never seen from the pitchers mound. Given how pitchers who have had to spend time at AAA have done you have got to think that Ted Powers is the man and someone who needs to spend some quality time with Chapman in the offseason. If Chapman can make that move to SP, think of it..
Cueto Chapman Homer Leake Wood All young all have the potential to be quality guys and your 1-2 guys can be total shutdown type of pitchers for the next 4-5 years.
