Homer Bailey pitching for the Reds tomorrow

Kid is a stud. 21 years old and one of the best pitching prospects in all of baseball. Interesting to see how he does in the bandbox in Cincy.

im thinking no hitter

:lol: What a dick...

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:

Never heard of him til now

David "Homer" Dewitt Bailey Jr. born 5-3-86, in LaGrange, TX
6 feet 4 inches, 205 lbs.

Bailey played three games with the Reds in 2007 spring training, going 0-1 with a 19.64 ERA before the Reds sent him to their minor league camp on March 16. He pitched for the AAA Louisville Bats into June 2007. On June 8, 2007, he will make his Major League debut for the Reds.

Bailey's pitching repertoire includes a mid- to upper-90s fastball with good movement, a low 80s curve ball with 12-to-6 break, and a developing changeup. He has struck out an average of more than 10 batters per 9 innings in each of his last three stops in the minors (10.19 in AA, 10.06 in A+, and 10.85 in A).

Would not expect him to go any more than 6 tomorrow.</FORM>

his Minor league stats so far this year have been misleading. His K/9 and BB/9 have been weak compared to a guy like Lincecum's minor league numbers.

Not saying he won't be effective first time out because alot of rookies tend to be a little tough to beat the first time around.

I don't think he'll have a ton of success tomorrow. He's a stud but pitching in that tiny stadium against the Tribe is not going to be fun. Once he develops his change, he'll be unhittable for the most part but that stadium he pitches his home games in will keep his ERA up. If he pitches in SD, LAD, Oakland, etc etc look for him to dominate.

Was thinking the exact same thing but decided to lay off. Cincy's offense is hot and cold and my book had higher juice than -114.

Lee is capable of hurling a 6 hitter at any time.

Im liking the under here

UNLOAD on CLEVELAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i don't ever really like pitchers making their first ever MLB start...

he walked a lot of batters in triple A. 25 i believe in 54 innings. That's not going to get it done in the next level.

Sizemore struck out swinging.</B> (offspeed)

Stikes out his first batter faced in the majors!!!
