Which arm will make its Cincy debut first?
Go BLUE!!!
I think Lorenzen, just because they'll want to coddle BobSteve a bit more and Lorenzen is a guy I see that can pitch out of the pen while Stephenson is a straight-up starter.
Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. -- Carl Sagan (Pale Blue Dot)
I voted Lorenzen but barring another SP injury it will likely be Contreras with a September callup.

Contreras -- on the 40-man and a BP arm.

I don't think Lorenzen reaches the majors before Stephenson because they seem to really be watching Lorenzen's pitch counts. For example, yesterday he only went 65 pitches. I don't think they have any intention of starting Lorenzen at the MLB level until 2016, and I think The Engineer (it's not BobSteve, stop already) will pitch at some point in 2015.
I want the stretching out of Lorenzen to continue, I really hope they don't bring him up as a reliever.

Why did I think Corcino had already been with the big club?
