Injuries to three of the expected starting rotation for a good amount of games has really hurt this season, which sucks because the Reds have a good young offense.
I would imagine the starting rotation once Desclafani is back (assuming no more big injuries to pitching rotation by that point) will be Desclafani, Bailey, Finnegan, Adleman, Feldman/youngster. It's a shame that practically no young pitcher out of Reed, Stephenson, Garrett, Davis, Romano, etc has really established themselves as a quality pitcher yet.
The Reds need to capitalize on these cheap hitter contracts within the next few years and try to get 1-2 good pitchers via trade or better development.
Maybe the Reds could get a good pitcher for one of Winker, Duvall, Schebler, or Hamilton.
