Cincinnati Reds preseason talk

• SportsAndLady

  

  Opening day is under 2 months away, and Spring Training is coming up soon as well.
  
  So lets get some predictions in. Who do you guys think will be in our rotation? Who is going to be the starting 10 in the field?
  
  Also, if you want to register for the chance to buy opening day tickets, go to reds.com/openingday.
  
  Oh and, the true GOAT:

  Rotation:
  
  Arroyo (Opening Day starter)
  Cueto
  Volquez
  Wood
  Bailey/Leake (The other breaks camp in the bullpen)
  
  Starting 8 (not 10, durr):
  C - Hernandez
  1B - Toss up, probably Votto (Derp!)
  2B - Phillips
  SS - Janish
  3B - Rolen
  LF - Gomes
  CF - Stubbs
  
  Bought season tickets this year so I won't have to worry about Opening Day or playoff tickets. Sweet relief!
  RF - Bruce

  So the Reds will be playing Slow Pitch Softball this season?
• jordo212000

  

  I think Leake will start the season in the pen. Maybe he'll even start in the minors? I don't know.
  
  C- Hernandez/Hanigan
  1B- Votto
  2B- Phillips
  3B- Rolen
  SS- Janish/Renteria
  LF- Gomes/Heisey/Fred Lewis
  CF- Stubbs/Heisey
  RF- Bruce

  Stubbs/Heisey
  Bruce
  
  
  Just missing team: to AAA
  Willis
  Burton
  Leake
  Francisco
  
  
  although with several off days early in the year I could see LeCure in AAA also and Willis or Francisco up.
  
  
  edit: looks like I'm 1 spot short. Francisco probably has an edge since he is a lefty. Maybe Frazier, Cozart or Valaika if they tear it up in AZ.

  hasn't everyone played in a beer drinking intramural softball league at some point? Some of the best times during college.
  
  You play with a left center and right center fielder.
• karen lotz

  

  Will Cincinnati be considered the favorite to win the Central this year? What moves did St Louis make?

  Yeah, S&L is trying to be funny. Either that or he is trying to figure out if Mike, Sam, and Will play.
• dave

  Cardinals got Berkman, Theriot, Laird, resigned Westbrook.
  
  Brewers made the biggest splash.
• karen lotz

  

  What did the Brewers do again? Its been a while since all that stuff went down in early December.

  New Orleans with 500 OU students=fun
  Softball leagues with beer=not fun
• dave

  Greinke, Marcum, kept Prince. They are about to sign Mark Kotsay to help their bench.
• justincredible

  

  Softball is a lot of fun if you're not stuck playing against the douche that takes it too seriously.

  It is a lot of fun playing against a team full of douches that take it too seriously and beating them.
