Gray cannot handle the lights/fans in New York but could do better on a small market team but he is no ace. He would be a solid middle of rotation guy. Keuchel wants a 5-6 year deal but is a lefty and has ace potential. I just don't think the new management will want to make such a commitment after the Bailey deal. With that said, I would not be opposed to a 4 year deal with Keuchel and bringing in Gray.
Rotation would look something like this:
1-Keuchel
2-Wood
3-Gray
4-Disco
5-Roak
If Disco gets hurt than insert Castillo.
I agree with what you’re saying about not overpaying with prospects but I think that the Reds only need 1 more starter. You have to continue to develop Castillo and then Disco and about 5 other guys in-house that can compete for that number 5.
