Are the pitching woes finally over ?

[*bengalfan74*]

It's way early, I get it.

But is there a chance the pitching gods are finally gonna smile on Cincinnati ? We've had at best very average to basically horrible starting pitching for several seasons in a row now. Is the worm finally going to turn ?

Castillo is on fire tied for the league lead with an 0.92 ERA and could easily be 3-0 right now. Gray after a rough first couple innings has settled down to a 2.89 ERA and again could easily be 1-1 or even 2-0 with any offense.

Mahle pitched 6 innings of shutout baseball and should have a win. The Reds entire staff is third in the National league with a 3.30 ERA and 8th overall.

If Disco and Roark or whoever else they plug in could just settle down and be average we may have the makings of a decent staff ?

I believe the O will come around and be decent. I'd love to still be playing meaningful baseball in August.
