According to a tweet he just sent out. Reds must really want him here soon.

Sorry I would post the tweet but I'm on my phone and I can't do that from my phone.
Wow. That was fast.
Attended 1976 World Series in my Mother's Womb. Attended 1990 World Series Game 2 as a 13 year old. Want to take my son to a a World Series Game in Cincinnati in my lifetime.

Depending on how well he finishes the year there, I could see him going into 2014 as a top 10 prospect.
(Referring to Jack Hannahan signing with a Korean team)
Since there are no teams on the moon, I guess South Korea's far enough from Cincinnati to satisfy me.

His last start he was outstanding, fastball had zip like Cingrani's, his slider was low away and on the corner, threw one changeup on 3-2 pitch that made the hitter look goofy. One inning he threw about a half dozen changeups in a row and then threw a 97 mph fastball that just wasnt legal IMO. He's nasty.

The heir to Homer Bailey
Go BLUE!!!
Any idea what the corresponding move was?
Wow, this caught me off guard.
I'm of the mindset that once you get to AA, things can really move quickly based on what happens up at the big league level.
My quick reaction on this one is I think the odds favor him making a cameo in Cincinnati next season. Assuming his stuff sticks at the next 2 levels like I think it will.

The Reds could trade Bailey this winter. 2015 may seem to make more sense and coincides with Stephenson's arrival better but it would have to be a deadline trade and might not bring as much as a trade this winter would, more time = more value. Whichever - Stephenson is being pushed but at least it is a level at a time and allowing him to succeed if briefly, before bumping him up. I like it - let him rise until he is challenged.

Homer could fetch a few top level prospects, which is exactly what Cinci needs.
