Yes
Joey Votto is truly elite.
He's gone beyond any expectation of him.
I noticed that this guys was something special 2 seasons ago when i watched him at the plate.
Its not just votto though.
Brandon Phillips can take just as much credit.
Bruce is getting better each year that passes as well.
The bullpen deserves a high mention here.
Fransisco Cordero is a very good closer.
Aroldis Chapman has already gone down in the history books, and he's not even started yet ......the velocity is off the charts.
The bullpen shows its depth with
Nick Masset and
Bill Bray.
The weakness i mention in the rotation is not so much a weakness, rather questions that come up.
Volquez has the potential to have an amazing season, but will he?
I like
Wood a lot, and also
Leake.
I'm not so sure what form
Arroyo is in, and i doubt
LeCure will remain in the rotation.
