Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Sarasota is off. Louisville and Chattanooga play later tonight. Homer Bailey is pitching for Louisville and Richie Gardner for Chattanooga.

Dayton is currently playing in game one of a doubleheader. They are trailing game one 3-2 in the bottom of the 5th. Juan Francisco and Justin Turner are both 1-for-2 with solo homeruns. Francisco takes over the Reds minor league homerun lead with 10. Bruce is second with nine.

Bottom 5th, Stubbs singles to put runners on 2nd and 3rd and two outs. Justin Turner draws a walk and Chris Valaika follows with a 3-run double (14th double) and Francisco singles him in to make it 6-3 Dayton.

Stubbs 2-for-3 two singles
Turner 1-for-2 solo HR, walk
Francisco 2-for-3 solo HR, RBI single

Dayton won game one 6-3. Guardado threw a scoreless 6th and Geronimo pitched a 1-2-3 7th inning for his 4th save.

Hopefully Homer can have an outing much like his last. He just needs to keep improving and working on things.

Chattanooga is underway, and Louisville starts in a little less than an hour. I know Doug has mentioned this several times before, but many Reds minor league games are available on MiLB GameDay Audio (you must register, but everything is free), including both the Lookouts and Bats games tonight.

Chattanooga and Mississippi have no score so far in the bottom of the 1st inning.

Gardner: 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 0 SO, 0 HR

Ryan Hanigan threw out two baserunners attempting to steal, and the pbp guy commented that Gardner was very quick to the plate.

Hopefully Gardner can settle down from here on forward and cut back on the walks. Sounds like he was lucky Hanigan had his back.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Dragons lead 2-1 in the 5th. Stubbs 2-3 2runs: Turner 3-3.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Lineup behind Homer tonight:
Keppinger 2B
Wise RF
Bellhorn DH
Herr 2B
Votto 1B
Edwards LF
Lopez SS
Jorgesen C
Dickerson CF

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Chattanooga and Mississippi are still scoreless heading to the bottom of the 2nd inning. Gardner put a couple more guys on base in the 2nd inning, but he also recorded a pair of strikeouts and got out of the jam without giving up any runs.

Gardner: 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 2 SO, 0 HR

Anderson: 0-0, BB
Janish: 0-0, BB

Drew Anderson is playing left field instead of second base today too.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Should be interesting Bats will face knuckleballer Charlie Haeger.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Homer is facing a pretty decent AAA lineup also.

Jerry Owens LF
Tomas Perez 2B
Josh Fields SS
Ryan Sweeney CF
Craig Wilson RF
Casey Rogowski 1B
Brian Anderson DH
Gustavo Molina 3B
Ryan Smith C

Knuckleballer Charlie Hager is on the mound.

6 players with ML expierence, and Josh Fields is the White Sox top prospect.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Should be a very good test-think I'll listen to Charlotte announcer for a little different prospective on Homer Bailey.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

If the White Sox do indeed come calling for Griffey again like a lot of folks think, Josh Fields is one of the guys I would want in return. Fields + Gio Gonzalez would work for me.

Re: Monday 5-28 minor league updates
 

Gio and Fields for Griffey? I don't think there's any chance the White Sox would do that. I'm not even sure if the White Sox would trade one of them for Griffey. I was thinking more along the lines of Sweeney and a pitcher, although I'm not sure if we would go for another lefty. Maybe Ownes or Anderson and a couple pitching prospects.
