I must say, I was impressed with Chapman last night. Several pitches clocked at over 100 mph, with the highest reaching 103!!! Also a good decision by Dusty to bring him to face the bottom third of the Brewers' order, so he could ease into his first big league appearance. Those three jokers he faced last night looked completely overmatched. Look forawrd to seeing how he does against a Prince Fielder or an Adrian Gonzalez.
As for the comments about Harang, everybody needs to just settle down. Considering the money he is owed the rest of this year (about 2 million) and the way he has pitched, his trade value is zip. The only thing the Reds could do would be release him, but at this point there's no reason to. Rosters just expanded from 25 to 40, so there's plenty of room to keep him on the team without taking up a spot from a more deserving player. And worse case scenario, he could always eat up some innings in a blowout. And trust me, he will NOT be on the team next year, Cincy will decline his option, pay him his $2 million buyout, and wish him well.
