    I suppose they could drop the pitching altogether and have Lorenzen just play the OF. He can just run the ball back to the infield.

    Reds lack of pitching depth is really showing now.

    Hoffman has looked pretty good so far in rotation. Easy move for Gray would have been DeLeon to minors. But he is going to pen, so not sure who exits.

    That's my guess. Bedrosian cost them more, he gets the longer leash. Sal has been decent lately and is a solid workhorse.

    They'll see if Perez gets through without a claim.

    Perez has an option, he doesn’t need to clear waivers.

    but he can bench a lot. what a bust.

    reds have no money and they are paying this underachiever $5M to sit on the sidelines.

    Agree. Bell said DeLeon to pen. Several others would have to be DFA’d, no options. Perez is the likely pick to go down unless someone needs to be IL’d.

    A week or so ago, I’d have agreed. Miley had been nails in the rotation, Hoffman serviceable, and Antone appears like one of the few trustworthy pen members. Having said that, Hoffman would have a short leash.

    Yeah, I bet Lorenzen loves that he hurt his shoulder on his walk year. He must be ecstatic.

    i'm sure he doesn't love it. but there's a reason why pitchers don't look like bodybuilders. you're supposed to be flexible. not look like you're making a headline appearance at the arnold classic.

    Lorenzen has pretty incredible flexibility.

    There is a lack of depth? I’m shocked to hear this. Who could have predicted this?

    Not liking the talk of sending Perez down. I think the easy call is to DFA Romano.
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
