They have some question marks, but they also have a pretty good squad. Volquez, Harang, Cueto, Arroyo and maybe Homer Bailey. That is the making of a solid rotation. A full year of Jay Bruce should make a difference. They still have Votto and Brandon Phillips. It would surpirse me at all if they win 90 games. Ovisouly I think its a long shot, but not out of the realm of possibility.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If Harang bounces back and they get anything at all out of their bullpen, they could be a threat, but more than likely they'll finish 5th.
