Re: Travis Wood and Jordan Smith promoted to Chattanooga, Daryl Thompson to Louisvill
With Bailey's struggles and Lehr going to Korea, Thompson is probably in line to be the next starting pitcher called up.

Throw Maloney in the mix as well. He's really pitching well in May.

Fixed that for you. His 'struggles' earlier in the year were likely due to his BABIP that was well over .400 in April.

Re: Travis Wood and Jordan Smith promoted to Chattanooga, Daryl Thompson to Louisvill
I just talked to Travis again and he said that Lee Tabor just called him and said right after Tabor pitched to his 1 batter the coach told him to go home and get packed because he is headed to Chattanooga. So they are leaving the ballpark now heading for Chattanooga.

Wow... There must be some serious shake ups coming throughout the entire system. That is at least 6 guys on the move, all pitchers.

Like I said before, Walt is done with his evaluation process.
I have to think Bruce is coming up tomorrow.

I sure hope so. I'll be very disappointed if he's not.

Homer has a new buddy, is my way of thinking. With the old guys on the staff at Louisville, he has been kind of by himself, age wise. Thompson is also of an upward trajectory. Someone to push Homer. I like it.

Doug...in your eyes has Maloney's value changed this year...it seemed last year you didn't think he had big league "stuff" for lack of a better term. Has he taken a big step forward this year in your opinion.

I like him a little more now than I did last year. His change up and curveball have been impressive the three times I have seen him this year (he always ends up pitching when I have things to do.... so I have seen him less than others in AAA this season). I still think his fastball is mediocre at best, but he is a lefty so that helps. Still, I don't see much more than a #4 starter for him. There is nothing wrong with that of course.

Re: Travis Wood and Jordan Smith promoted to Chattanooga, Daryl Thompson to Louisvill
I wonder how long it will take till we get to see Maloney or Thompson up in Cincinnati if Belisle continues to bomb.

Absolutely good to hear. I'll take Maloney as a #4 everyday of the week.
