There's more than enough data to say that pitchers are far more inconsistent to plot how they're going to play. The Reds also really hurt themselves by not making their payroll much higher. I know they're small market, but spending around 80-100mil on players is just not going to work. Gotta get into the 140-150's to be competitive.
I agree on salary and pitching. Any ten year deal is very risky though. Now they are starving for starting pitchers so they either need to overspend or deplete the minors.
