The team is now looking less fluke and more legit. They are racking up wins. They also have a very real roster crunch coming up soon. Votto is en route, CES is banging down the door.
Meanwhile, the Reds have terrific lineup. The staff, however is Greene and Abbott and hope shit goes really well.
Teams don't pick their year. It picks them. With that in mind, I feel like another starter (at least) is needed if this team is going to make a real postseason run.
Would you give up a CES for a Shane Beiber? Marte?
They have a lot of prospect capital. Would you give a meaningful bit of it up for a top-of-rotation hammer that can get it done in the fall? Would you rather let the season play out as is with hope of the second coming of the Big Red Machine being a reality when all of the young talent comes to Cincinnati?
It's a tough call. if Marte and CES, even Arroyo can hit the majors running as McLain and EDLC have, this team would be built like a brick shithouse until 2030.
IDK what to think.
