Homer Bailey pitching for the Reds tomorrow

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

Too much hype for Bailey...overrated just a bit.....control isn't what it is supposed to be....let's hope for the best....

5 solid innings, control a little shaky. About what was expected. Reds will take it very cautious with him, but certainly he looked like a keeper.

Wouldn't be surprised if they give him 3 starts and then send him back to AAA for more seasoning.

Bailey going on the hill again today.

The hard-throwing Bailey (2-2) got hit hard for the second consecutive start, raising questions about his readiness for the big leagues. The 21-year-old pitcher has given up 13 hits, eight walks and 13 runs in his last two starts, covering only 5 1-3 innings.
Bailey blamed it on a flaw in his delivery that he detected while watching video afterward. "I knew something was wrong, but I couldn't figure out what it was," Bailey said. "It's a small, mechanical thing. We have an off day tomorrow, which gives me an extra day to remember how bad today was."

Word on the street is what every red fan really didn't want to hear, he's losing velocity. I guess in the minors he was hitting 96-98 no problem and now all of a sudden he is topping out at 90-93. Those extra mph really are alot bigger than they should......

Talk about HITS per inning pitched ..

Colorado piled up 15 hits in less than five innings off Homer Bailey, another offensive splurge that sent Jorge De La Rosa and the Rockies to a 5-1 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday night.
An offense that produced from leadoff to the last hitter made it possible.
Every Rockies starter had at least one hit off Bailey (0-4), who left after De La Rosa singled home a pair of runs with two outs in the fourth for a 5-1 lead. Every Colorado starter also had at least one hit in a series-opening 7-2 win on Friday night.
“They were teeing off on him big time,” Reds manager Dusty Baker said.

I predict great things for this guy.

Multi Cy Youngs. Maybe even the HOF.

This guy is going to commend -250 status on the moneyline very soon.

Get him right now while he is cheap and unknown.

I will be making my largest wager of the season tommorow with him on the mound.

The guy is polished and ready to go.

:thumbsup:

Are you related to Choptalk??

He was getting out of jams left and right tonight, it was only a matter of time before they got a few runs. The thing that is so frustrating with him is he will make 2 great pitches, get 0-2 on a guy and then totally blow it and give up a hit

How disappointing has this guy been? I would be crushed if I was a Reds fan.

And Homer is going today:

Reds are 4-1 in Baileys last 5 Tuesday starts.
