"He's going to be a guy that's going to have high pitch counts just because people can't center it and they're going to foul a lot of balls off." - Reds manager Jerry Narron on pitcher Homer Bailey, the team's first-round draft pick in 2004.

Now isn't Homer the type of pitcher that is supposed to make guys swing and miss?
Power pitchers always struggle with throwing a lot of pitches, esp. at the major league level. No K pitcher just throws three pitches by guys. I think the comment makes sense.
