It's Chapman time!!

• Midstate01

  

  According to 97.1 the fan, the reds have called chapman up. I'm waiting for John Fay to confirm it. Can't wait to see him work put of the pen this weekend!!
• SportsAndLady

  

  Yes!!!
• Ironman92

  

  hell yeah!
• jordo212000

  

  Awesome. Wonder if he will take LeCure's start? Weren't they supposed to skip his next start?
• Azubuike24

  

  Any updates on this?
• SportsAndLady

  

  Nothing yet from Fay...no game tonight. so we might not hear this officially announced til tomorrow.
• Mooney44Cards

  

  Nothing from ESPN 1530. Or mlbtraderumors.
  
  Young pitcher called up for the Indians series? Is this 2007?
• wildcats20

  

  I would LOOOOOOOOOOOVE if he took LeCure's start, seeing as how I'll be there!! lol
• jordo212000

  What is your website?
• gibby08

  

  It's a huge mistake to bring him up already...he isn't ready yet.
  
  You're still on that shit?? You do realize that doesn't really bother me right?
• jordo212000

  

  What do you mean he's not ready? haha. He gets into trouble when he pitches a lot of innings. He'll be fine in a 1-2 inning role
• gibby08

  

  But the Reds won't let him do that...they will rush him into starting

  With Volquez coming back? Fat chance.
  
  You really aren't quite sure what you're talking about are you? Jocketty has already said they're willing to look at him as a reliever, why would he say that right before he inserts him into the rotation? Especially when all along he has being saying Chapman is going to be a starter? Why would he change his tune then all of a sudden do what he was planning to do all along? Makes no sense. Makes even less sense when you look at who is coming back VERY shortly.

  Probable pitchers for the upcoming games...
  
  Sat - LeCure
  Sun - Arroyo
  Mon - TBA
  Tues - Leake
  
  Will Chapman pitch Monday?
• killdeer

  

  Volquez is apparently looking very good.
  Chapman is being groomed for the bullpen for the time being.
  
  this is a fantastic thing.
  
  For the first time in 20(?) years, the Reds starting pitching looks solid.
  For the first time in 15(?) years, the Reds are buying at the All Star Break instead of selling
  For the first time in 8(?) years, we have enough arms to not throw the hell out of the next big thing until we blow out his elbow.
  
  Welcome back EV......let's save Chapman for the weeks to come.
