Let’s Win

Initially, I’d planned to write an entire post being contrarian about the whole Free Lorenzen thing. The premise being that, successful or not, the Reds still have a ton of starting pitching prospects AND Lorenzen is already a good reliever AND we should assume the Reds know at least a few things we don’t AND there are only so many starts in the big leagues to go around. Thus, such a move would be short-sighted and the Reds shouldn’t make short-sighted decisions right now. Their play lately has put thoughts of contending this year fully out-of-mind. And so, we need to look at next year, which when they are supposed to be ready to compete.
