He will if he can stay healthy. What was it last year, an "inner ear infection" that kept him out for almost a month?

That was the excuse. I think he had some kind of breakdown due to the death of his father.

IMO we will have one of the best, deepest, youngest staffs in the league this year. I for one can't wait to see what happens this year. Hopefully we can stay healthy

I'm not sure that he'll be in the rotation this year. I bet he starts off at Double A unless he is on fire during ST.

If I recall correctly, he had to go to the hospital b/c he was having a panic attack due to the death of his father and he broke down. He basically had to take care of his whole family. I feel sorry for him.

Go back to the actual Reds thread

The Reds aren't nearly good enough to have a new thread for each season. No other sports team makes a new thread each season.
