      Do they just trot him out there when they're behind to eat up innings? I hope so. He's turrible.

      LeCure isn't any better. Who are the five options ahead of these two?

        Chapman, Marshall, Broxton, Arredondo, Hoover, Simon, Cingrani.

          Have to believe they would take Leake over Cingrani, if only for his bat and speed... Just depends how many arms they decide on...

            You feel comfortable with Broxton and Arredondo out there in a playoff situation?

            I haven't seen the other three, so can't comment on those guys.

              It's the REDS, NoCo, we haven't won a playoff game since '95... Therefore, we aren't comfortable with anybody out there...

                What Gonad said.

                But also as you stated yourself, you haven't seen any of them play this year. I don't think you can get a valid perspective on it. The Reds have one of the best, if not the best, bullpens in the league.

                  Good point.

                    I guess we'll see once the playoffs start.

                    Agree on Chapman. I don't see much beyond that personally, unless you think a bunch of young bucks are going to shine in the October spotlight out of nowhere.

                      Reds were already drawing dead in the playoffs.

                        How do you figure? They've got one of the best 'pens in the league, and play defense as well or better than anybody... Bats are a little suspect, especially since Votto's knee doesn't provide much power since the injury... Already bet the Giants to win it all, don't want to see a SF-CIN series...
