Do the Reds have TOO many young arms?

    Last week Aroldis Chapman made his first relief appearance for the Louisville Bats, the Cincinnati Reds AAA affiliate.  In what was previously stated to be unlikely, it appears that Reds general manager, Walt Jocketty, will find a place in the bullpen for young Chapman. "We may look at that," Jocketty said.  "if Volquez comes back and [Homer] Bailey isn't far away, the best opportunity [for Chapman] will be out of the bullpen."  However, if you look closely at that quote, something doesn't add up.  Let's fast-forward to late July.  The Reds are still hovering around first place and the dog days of summer are kicking in.  Edinson Volquez is back in the majors, Chapman is in the Reds' bullpen, and Bailey is nearly through rehab and ready to start again.  That gives the Reds 6 starters: Aaron Harang, Bronson Arroyo, Johnny Cueto, Mike Leake, Edinson Volquez, and Homer Bailey.  That's not mentioning Sam LeCure, who has a 4.86 ERA in the majors this year, and Travis Wood and Matt Maloney, who have 3.12 and 3.60 ERAs, respectively, in Louisville.  Besides Harang and Arroyo, the oldest of the other 6 is 26 years old.  And let's not forget about Chapman.  There's no way that he remains in the bullpen for more than 6 months.  The goal is for him to be front-end starter for years to come.  Putting Chapman in the bullpen will only be to gain experience.  So what will the front office do with the over-abundance?  A likely solution is to make a move at the trade deadline for another offensive weapon.  Jocketty has previously said that this would be likely if the club was still in a pennant race come that time.  Either way, the situation can only turn out well.  The Reds look great for the next several years.  They have loads of talented players who are only getting better and more experienced.  The future looks bright for this fiery team.
