Now I'm not saying it's time to start considering cutting Tim Redding but even I'm starting to get worried about him and I put very little credence in early spring training result, while also having very little expectations for the fifth starter. But Redding has been that bad; In his first outing he couldn't make it through an inning against a college team in which he allowed five runs and tonight he completed two innings but gave up nine runs on eight hits ( three homeruns) and one walk, raising his ERA to 40.50.
