Looks like Homer is a little ahead of pace so far, and it takes about 350 IP to reach the majors in these certain instances, so it wouldn't be too crazy to see Homer be MLB ready at about the 300 IP mark. He is about 90 IP away, and I'm not sure how many more IP he will get this year, but I don't think it could be out of the picture to see him pitching in our bullpen at about the middle of next season (if he continues to dominate)

I really don't see him in the bullpen with the need for SP here with the big club.

I think you might just see him come May of next season, but who knows.
