UPDATE: We Will Be Seeing Homer Bailey on Saturday

PrintUPDATE from Slyde: Just minutes after I originally posted this the Reds announced that Bailey will be called to pitch on Saturday and Edinson Volquez will go on the DL.
Let me run this set of facts by you...
1. Ramon Ramirez was called up to take the place of Nick Massett in the bullpen.
2. Edinson Volquez tweaks his back and declares that he will have to miss a start.
3. Ramirez is named as the starter for Saturday's game, which was when Volquez was expected to start.
4. Micah Owings has a bad outing and the Reds need a long reliever in this afternoon's game. Ramirez ends up being that long reliever.
5. Ramirez is no longer available to start on Saturday.
6. Homer Bailey is scheduled to start for Louisville on Saturday.
These set of facts can lead one to the very obvious conclusion - Homer Bailey will be called up to start for the Reds on Saturday.
I think it's obvious that we'll be seeing just the sixth Red to start a game for the team some time this weekend. There are two obvious possibilities from Louisville in Bailey and left-hander Matt Maloney. Maloney could be called up to pitch tomorrow, on normal rest, allowing Bronson Arroyo to be pushed back to 5 days of rest. The other option is to let Arroyo go on 4-days rest on Friday (the normal amount of rest in a 5-man rotation) and then pitch Bailey on Saturday. In either case, I believe that Volquez is likely to go on the disabled list since the off-day next Thursday means the Reds only need to cover one of his starts.
Here's a comparison of Maloney and Bailey's numbers this year in Louisville:
Maloney: 44.1 IP, 44 H, 3 HR, 6 BB, 38 K, 2.66 ERA, 1.14 WHIP
Bailey: 45.1 IP, 46 H, 9 HR, 17 BB, 43 K, 4.60 ERA, 1.40 WHIP
One thing to keep in mind, and one reason the Reds might be skittish about bringing up Maloney, is that he hasn't looked good in either of the last two Spring Trainings. There has to be concern as to whether or not he can get big league hitters out. I'm not saying that this is reasonable justification. Just pointing out why this may not be an obvious decision for the Reds.
So who do you think it should be? Maloney, with Arroyo on 5 days rest, or Bailey, with Arroyo 4 days rest?

im perfectly confident in either of them
obviously, Homer has the potential to be a real difference-maker down the line, but for just a spot-start, which is what im assuming this will end up being (God willing), im fine with Maloney throwing too. but Arroyo should go on his regular rest, and i see no reason to change his routine. Homer it is.

Matt Maloney
overall Maloney has better career minor league numbers than Bailey. Maloney has paid his dues.
Maloney and Bailey have a similar K/9 rate, Maloney’s at 9.1 Bailey is at 9.2. The real difference is in their BB/9 rate, Maloney is at 3.0, and Bailey is at 4.0. Also Maloney has only allowed 3 home runs in 44 innings of work as Bailey has allowed 9 in 45 innings of work.
Dusty said he wanted to give Arroyo an extra day of rest this time through the rotation, so he can go ahead and do it. Maloney has earned it, he has out pitched Bailey this year, and has better career numbers than Bailey, he just doesn’t have have a mid 90’s fastball.

The problem is the small sample size
A bad start for Maloney Friday and a dominant one for Bailey Sunday would completely change these numbers. That is the trouble so early in the season.
Most of Bailey’s “walks” came in 2 starts when it was cold and damp which probably caused his shoulder to tighten up. So their walk totals may not be the indicator we are looking for.
Maloney has a bit better h/9 Bailey a bit better k/9.
The key if you want Maloney is the hr’s, Bailey has been rocked this year with hr’s. Matter of fact, that is the reason his ERA is so inflated compared to Maloney’s in many respects. Bailey’s done well against righties but is really struggling against lefties. Matter of fact, Bailey’s small sample size so far in the righty/lefty area is so overwhelming it is maybe his key stat.
Who are the Reds facing Saturday may be the real key. If it is a lefty dominated offense, Maloney should have been the pick(though even his small sample size is misleading era wise, he has give up 16 hits and only 5k’s in 12 innings).
if you look at their entire body of minor league work
Maloney is better.

The wild pitches are even better than the walks.
Jason Neighborgall had mid-upper 90s stuff and the worst control you’ll ever find. He fleeced the D’Backs for $500K and walked 3 batters an inning. I love his last year, when he managed to walk 12 people and throw 9 wild pitches in, uh, one total inning of work.
No way, really?
How the hell does a manager allow that to happen?
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
This sounds about right
Of course, we could bring both up and have Maloney start on the mound and Bailey in left field.
It almost sounds like you're on Homer's side here.
Then I look it up, and you voted for Maloney. For shame, doc.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
I am all for Bailey rocking the ship
and forcing Walt to find a way to include him in the rotation. I will be pissed if Bailey is lights out in his start and then has to return to Louisville when Volquez comes back.

and i'm down on Bailey's future
i just think he was probably rushed, and even though i was calling for his call up in 2007, it probably would have been wise to leave him in AAA all season, rather than to start his options clock, since the Reds will have to make a decision on him next year.

We had a arguement about this a couple of days ago.
He wasn’t rushed, but really re-worked. I say it wasn’t necessary, the others disagree
by Johnnypronto on May 21, 2009 5:12 PM EDT up reply actions
I didn't disagree, IIRC
I think the Reds drafted a certain skillset then decided to fuck with that skillset. Not a good idea. The difference is I think if/when he’s traded he ends up in the majors within a year and Reds fans everywhere hate him forever in a “why didn’t he do that HERE” sort of way, not realizing it was the Reds’ fault.

by Charlie Scrabbles on May 21, 2009 6:05 PM EDT up reply actions
players don't burn options everytime they are promoted or demoted
An option lasts for the entire season, and every player has 3 option years, Bailey’s first option was burned when he was demoted in 2007, his second option was burned when he was demoted in spring of 2008, and his last option was burned when he was demoted this year, but the Reds can call him up as many times as they want this season, as long as they give him 10 days in the minors when they demote him (unless there is an injury to another pitcher).
In 2010 things get interesting, if Bailey pitches in a lackluster manner next spring, the Reds will have to keep him on the big club, trade him (with a much reduced value), or hope (and fail to) sneak him through waivers.

And I was definitely confused about Homer’s options, b/c I thought once he was on the 25 man roster in 2009, he was here to stay (unless we risked sending him thru waivers to send him back down)…
Wasn’t that all the hubbub in ST?
by Highlifeman21 on May 21, 2009 9:06 PM EDT up reply actions
well
options are only used when a player is on the 40 man roster, bailey was not added to the 40 man roster until 2007, when he made his big league debut.
Maloney has used an option this year because he was on the 40 man roster in spring training and was optioned to AAA, rather than making the club.
You may ask why the reds would put a player (like Maloney) on teh 40 man roster when they do not intend on placing him on the big league club.
Any player who was signed as an 18 year old must be placed on the 40 man roster after 4 years, or else he is vulnerable to be taken in the rule V draft. Players signed when they are 19 have 3 years before they can be taken in the rule V draft.
These rules were created so that teams cannot block great minor league talent, when they have great major league talent. Teams with say a great Catcher would block other catchers from the big leagues and they would languish in the minors and never have a chance to proove themselves in the majors. Now organizations have a clock to use to decide if a talented player can be used in their organization, if they deem he isn’t a good fit they should trade him before they lose him, rather than just not let him see the light of the big leagues.

after owing's performance today
i’m hoping bailey is lights out and takes his place in the rotation. but i’ve wanted that for awhile.
really?
i mean are you forgetting about what he did Saturday? I’m willing to give him a pass today, because he throw a ton of pitches on short rest saturday/sunday morning, and another days rest probably would have been for the best. He threw has last pitch at 3AM sunday morning, and his first pitch at 12:35 this afternoon, that is kind of a quick turn around. I’m okay with Owings in the 5th spot for a while. He will probably be about league average.

Bailey vs. Maloney vs. right handed hitters
Maloney:
32.1I 28H 3hr 33k’s
Bailey:
23I 17H 3hr 23k’s
One of the reason Maloney’s ERA is lower is because of luck vs. lefties. If Bailey had faced more righties than lefties this year, his overall numbers would be better across the board.
Very similiar in production and I don’t care for either. But they are all we got.
Aw, I was getting some warm fuzzies there for a minute
You were defending Homer instead of trying to tear him down! But good things don’t last in this world, do they? Just ask Homer Bailey’s mechanics.

you know who i think of when i read about Maloney
Maloney has had a better minor league career than Glavine had oh so many years ago. Glavine didn’t compile nearly as many K’s (6.1/9), walked more hitters (4.0/9), allowed more home runs (.8/9 (Maloney has allowed .7/9 real close but Maloney edges Glavine out) and more hits (8.8/9). Glavine never had eye popping stuff either, but he turned in a hall of fame career.

Ok, Tom Glavine was pitching full time in the majors by the time he was 22.
It’s a nice point, but there are a lot of guys who can put up those kind of numbers in the minors. It doesn’t mean they’re all Hall-bound.
Everybody's a jerk. You. Me. This jerk.

He strikes out more than a minor league batter an inning
One thing that I didn’t post from the interview with Nick Krall (and I’m not sure why i didn’t) was a response to a question that was basically – “Why DR Herrera and not Carlos Guevara?” His answer was in general because he doesn’t work with the Minor League decision makers, but he said that there are plenty of guys that know how to get minor leaguers out who can’t pitch in the Majors. If they are getting outs frequently on pitches out of the zone despite having just average stuff, they aren’t likely to be successful in the Majors.
I don’t know if this is why the Reds haven’t brought Maloney up, but I’m suspicious that they don’t think he can get Major League hitters out with his stuff. I’ve never seen him pitch, so I don’t have any idea how good his stuff is, but obviously they don’t feel like his numbers will translate to the Majors.

I suppose, but you'll have to bring more than just numbers
to convince me that Maloney’s more Glavine than Shearn (notwithstanding the RL thing).
I understand that you’re not necessarily predicting Maloney to reach Glavine’s level, but to pick the best pitcher out of a sea of dudes with decent minor league numbers and hold that as a point in favor is just not a strong argument.
Everybody's a jerk. You. Me. This jerk.
yeah
i know. I guess i shoulda probbly said I don’t think he will reach Glavine levels but a guy who doesn’t throw hard, but throws 4 pitches well can have prolonged success in the big leagues, as demonstrated by Glavine.

I'm not gonna make a prediction as to how Homer's going to do
but I hope it’s more “new Homer” than it is “old Homer”. I’m hoping we see the Homer who battled for a rotation spot all of spring training with all of the eyes of the organization watching him, and was lights out. I think it’s possible, considering that he’s pitching against the Indians on a Saturday night in front of (likely) a packed house.
