Why?Reds needed pitching and had too many outfielders.Best Reds trade in recent years.
I hope that's not really true,
Arroyo's 3-0 with a 2.34 ERA and WHIP under 1. Not sure what they could have hoped for by giving up a guy who's a big liability on the field and basepaths.
Oh yea, current HR count:
Arroyo: 2 in 5 games
Pena: 1 in 13 games

Because he's what, 4 starts into the season? I guess you'll have to excuse me if I'm not quite ready to call this "the best Reds trade in recent years." Although, like I said, I can't really think of any other trades the Reds have made lately, so maybe it is. But that'd be pretty sad, is all.Obviously, if Arroyo can keep this up all year, I'll feel differently, but for now, I will withhold judgement.Why?Reds needed pitching and had too many outfielders.Best Reds trade in recent years.

If he turns out to be a decent #3 starter, he'll be the best starting pitcher the Reds have had for years. Their biggest problem was juggling maybe one #4 with 3 or 4 # 5's. He has the potential to be a legitimate #2 on a normal staff.Because he's what, 4 starts into the season?

Sox fans dont need to be bitter. This is a GREAT trade for the Reds. If Pena proves to be a decent replacement for Nixon next year (not looking great as a RF so far this year) it will also be a good trade for the Sox. Right now it is a bad trade. You cant win them all.

Arroyo is a streaky pitcher. So he's off to a good start, good for him.
If he keeps up even close to this pace for the rest of the season, I will be shocked.
Of course I do think its easier pitching in the NL and maybe that's having some impact too but I still think he is going to have his share of games where he doesn't pitch very well at all.
