Got no one out in the 1st inning while giving up 3 hits and 4 walks and 4 runs.
Justin Mallet now pitching.

He's over his magic innings number. Shut him down.
This worries me a lot, no one retired, 4 walks, 4 runs , i hope to god he didnt get hurt.
Maybe he was trying to throw mostly/all secondary pitches.

Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

As much as I've yelled and screamed to bring him up.....I think shutting him down may be the smartest move.
There...I used my brain instead of my heart

Anyone hear if he was just having control problems or what the issue was?
So....basically he is that robot pitcher from that Twilight Zone episode that strikes out everyone.....until they give him a heart....and he cannot stomach getting people out anymore.
I think if he was hurt.....they would have said something ASAP.
Why was Bailey pitching, thought it was Valdez? Besides that, Krivsky said he wasn't going to pitch again to the AA playoffs. Bizarre.
Yeah, according to the rotation, it was supposed to be Valdez.......if Bailey pitched, he was probably bothered by a blister and the Reds coaches are stupid.

Aronchis is right. Homer pitched on three days rest. It wasn't his turn in the rotation. Wow, how stupid can the Reds be.
I guess he did, didn't he?
Tuesday was his last start....(man, that feels like such a long time ago...what a week)
Wow.

Homer pitched Monday the 28th, meaning today was on five days rest. Still, he should have been shutdown two weeks ago.
Take this as pure rumor.........there was nothing wrong with Homer, he was throwing his typical heat lada lada lada. But he was upset that he didn't get called up(after Krivsky saw him personally) and pretty much was AWOL tonight and didn't even try to pitch. Considering how night/day his starts where the last week. I mean, if you pitch a gem a few days before and can't even find the plate the next start, there is "probably" more than "just a injury" going on IMO.
Hopefully that isn't the case and he just had a nasty blister or something, or the rumors of Homer being a headcase will be confirmed. Which the Reds don't need.
Just to be clear, this isn't my rumor. I think he may have had a bout of shoulder flare up being he is over 30 inning increase from last year and his mechanics would lead to more shoulder problems than not. According to Marc's blog Bailey couldn't get it up over 92 tonight and appeared very uncomfortable. Cool night tonight, probably got a bit tight and hot.

I'll take it as more than pure rumor... I'll take that entire post as pure nonsense. There are no rumors of Bailey being a head case. And his mechanics are flawless.
