Ehh..not too worried about getting the latest and greatest thing since sliced bread from Japan. I think the Reds have the arms to start finally and one may just step up to claim that ace role. The bullpen is still a concern and that's the only real weak link..There was talk about trading Billy who plays great D, but just has never really been able to hit his weight to unlock that great potential on any kind of consistent basis. I'd be interested in a trade that could possibly lock down the bullpen which has seen historic lows of late.. Great D can only get a team so far. They really need a CF and/or leadoff to get on base consistently and Billy ain't the guy.. I can't remember a player I've had such high hopes for like Billy who consistently disappointed everyone in the batters box..
