Robert Stephenson talks about his outing, the pressure of the competition. The Enquirer/John Fay
GOODYEAR, Ariz. – Reds manager Bryan Price started to go there. He seemed to be ready to say who was in the rotation.
Since the injuries to Anthony DeSclafani and Brandon Finnegan, Homer Bailey and Luis Castillo are the only two assured of being in the rotation. That leaves three spots if Finnegan (strained biceps) isn’t ready, two if he is.
But just when Price seemed to declare that Sal Romano, Tyler Mahle and Amir Garrett were in, he mentioned the names of the other competitors – Cody Reed, Michael Lorenzen and Robert Stephenson.
