    And there goes Chapman as a super sleeper closer. The Reds have more pitching than they know what to do with. I guess that is a good problem to have, though.

      Sweet, I have Madson for cheap in both my leagues!

        In the GASP, you can never have too many "quality" pitchers.

          Reportedly 1 year for $8.5M.

          Probably could have gotten more by accepting arbitration from the Phillies.

            I am happy. I much prefer Madson to a declining Cordero.

              Not really. He made $4.5M last year, arbitration would not have doubled his pay as a reliever.

                Votto is under contract for two more years. Meanwhile...
                - Pujols is out of the division, and Dave Duncan could be gone as well.
                - Fielder might be out of the division, and Braun could face a significant suspension.
                - Houston, Pittsburgh and the Cubs have a lot to prove.

                Looks like the Reds want to make most of their opportunity.
