2010 Rotation and Bullpen

[cbowen2112]

Since I did the batting order, here is my guess for a rotation and bullpen.


1. Harang
2. Arroyo
3. Cueto
4. Bailey
5. Maloney


CL- Cordero
RSU- Massett
LSU- Rhodes
MR- Lincoln
MR- D-R-H
MR- Burton
MR- Fisher/Viola
LR- Owings


Depending on trades this could be different obviously. I however, do not think anything will happen to this pitching staff. Not at least on opening day. Also, I hope Brian Price can turn around Harang. The weight loss helped at first, but then he lost it again. We shall see.

Thoughts?

Nothing really?

I know I didn't put any interesting trade acquisitions into this, but it is the Reds people.

Maloney deserves a shot as #5. He was not bad last year. We have a boatload of possible #5s. But he is my first option. We have several good young pitchers. It has been a long time since someone could say that.

I agree, and not that Lehr is young, but he could push for that spot perhaps as well. He is more of a good emergency plan to me.

[Jack Burton]

Would like to move Arroyo while his stock is up, not sure if it can get any higher.

I think Maloney and/or Lehr could put up as good of numbers as Owings, or possibly better. Owings has a problem with innings. He seemed to wear down quickly, where those two don't.

[flash]

I think Krebs could replace Burton, Viola or Fisher. Know he hasn't seen the big time yet, but he has succeeded everywhere he has been. Must throw a good sinker because he has a hoigh ground ball ratio. Anybody think he has a shot or will he even get an invite to Spring training.

Krebs will be atleast another year....Man i still feeling that harang will be traded to a team that doesnt get their wishes in the free agent market...
