Cincinnati Reds call up top prospects to start September

You could even call it the Red hot roster… With what the Cincinnati Reds hope to be their superstars of the future coming for a September cup of coffee, here’s a look at the top prospects joining the Reds this September.

Robert Stephenson

Stephenson is the Reds’ projected ace of the future. He came up early in the year and put in two good starts. Since then he has started 24 games in Louisville with a lower strike out rate and a higher WHIP than the front office was anticipating. He’ll likely replace Tim Adleman in the rotation with Adleman ready to come in if Stephenson gets into early trouble.
