Fixing the Starting Rotation: The Reds’ Potential Free Agent Targets (Part 3)
Nearly three weeks have passed since free agency started, and few dominoes have fallen to this point. The Reds have been linked to several notable pitchers thus far, including Patrick Corbin, Dallas Keuchel, and J.A. Happ. As of now, though, the team isn’t strongly connected to any players outside of the basic “Team X is interested in Player Y” tweets. If the team does land one of those big names, president of baseball operations Dick Williams has stated he’s looking for two starting pitchers.
It’s unlikely the Reds land two top-tier free agent starters, which means their second acquisition could be an arm to round out the rotation. Who could — and should — the team target?
