JBandJoeyV Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 Without the injury, Id say Votto. With it though you have to go Cueto I'd think followed closely by Chapman. Hell I wouldnt be surprised if Cueto and Chapman both finished in the top 3 in the cy young race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Dub Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Chapman. Losing Madson could've been so much worse otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengals1181 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 The pitching has been stellar, but I gotta go with Ludwick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I think you can make a case either way. Without either Cueto or Ludwick I don't think the Reds are in first place right now. Not sure there's a wrong answer either way.

JBandJoeyV Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Someone agrees with you 1181... [quote]Not only is Ryan Ludwick (.266/.335/.555, 21 HR, 63 RBIs) making a strong bid for comeback player of the year, he also just might be Reds MVP. Ludwick has hit eight homers with an OPS above 1.100 in the past three-plus weeks, leading the Reds to a 19-8 record during Joey Votto's absence. -- [i]Chad Dotson: [url="http://redlegnation.com/"]Redleg Nation[/url][/i][/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I think it has to be Aroldis. If Marshall was still closing, we might not be in first place. Chapman has been unbelievable. I hope we are able to lock him up. Luddy has been huge too. Chapman has been unreal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
