I've always disliked him for some reason.

Not a horrible deal if he came down off his original price of 2/22

Maybe it's because he braided his hair one season.........................

I dont know why they even signed Arroyo.
Corbin, Miley, McCarthy, Delgado, Cahill, and now Arroyo
Guess Delgado will stick to the pen and Bradley will join him there if he gets called up this year.

Good deal for AZ IMO. A guy who "eats innings" and has some post-season experience always works for me.
Plus, in that stadium and with a solid defensive infield, you want a guy who keeps the ball on the ground.
Another good move for a team I think will really surprise folks...

I'm alright with this. When McCarthy goes down with his usual mid-season injury, it'll be Corbin-Miley-Cahill-Arroyo-Delgado, so Delgado won't have to be in the bullpen too long. I still think Archie needed a half year of seasoning anyway, so I think this is okay. $23 million is a lot, but it's not as much as it used to be.
Not a terrible rotation, but not great. Depends on how much Corbin regresses this season. Miley regressed a lot last year, but seemed to put it back together the second half of the season, so I have hope for him being a pretty solid #2 .

Good riddance to my least favorite player on the Reds.

I hope it at least pushes the staff like McCarthy , Delgado and Cahill. If Miley and Corbin can put together solid seasons and they can get some improvement from the back half the $ spent is worth it. I see a lot of potential with bounce back years. Fingers crossed

Our downfall will, again, be a lack of a true ace.
Hitting is good, maybe above average, but our pitching is definitely a weak spot.
They needed to make a trade or acquire an elite SP and instead settled for a guy who is just going to eat innings and post a 3.50 or higher era, if he has a good year. Expecting anything more is a stretch considering hes moving to, arguably, the hardest division in the NL now.
Corbin will undoubtedly regress this year, Miley is up in the air, Cahill is consistent at being mediocre, McCarthy is a huge injury risk and Arroyo is solid but not considered an upgrade really.
