Cincinnati Reds at Cleveland Indians, Jun 27, 2009 7:05 PM EDT

We finally get to see that fancy new splitter that we've been hearing about from Homer. Could this finally be the chance for him to live up to the hype? I'm not really that optimistic. Personally, I thought he should have to pitch in the minors for another couple of months before given another shot at the Majors. Sure, he's been dominating of late, but it's not like he hasn't had stretches of dominance in the minors before. He needed to be consistently dominant in the AAA before I'd have given him another shot in the big leagues. Hopefully he'll make me shut up tonight though.
In a season where the Reds are adding more and more pitchers to the Tomo Ohka All Stars roster, it would be pleasantly ironic if they were to beat up on the real Tomo Ohka tonight. He is 5-2 with a 3.34 ERA against the Reds in his career, compared to a 50-64 record with a 4.14 career ERA. His ERA isn't much different, but he sure seems to know how to beat the Reds more than other teams.
Despite my lack of endorsement of his start, I am looking forward to seeing Bailey pitch tonight. This team could some positive mojo, since Joey Votto's return hasn't single-handedly turned them into champions. A good start tonight by Bailey as well as the possible return of Edwin Encarnacion next week could start to stir things up for the team. Any movements in a positive direction would be a breath of fresh air for a team that has been trapped in a pit of suck over the last few weeks.

It's the end of the world as we know it
Dickerson CF
Hairston Jr. 3B
Votto 1B
Phillips 2B
Nix LF
Gomes DH
Bruce RF
Hanigan C
Janish SS
Bailey P
Janish three days in a row? FTH?
I like this lineup. He’s giving Homer every chance to succeed.

That's a good lookin set a last names there
Aside from the obligatory gripe about Hanigan batting 8th, this is the best lineup I’ve seen from Dusty all year. I’m hoping to see Gomes get a few starts against RHP and prove his platoon splits aren’t so steep.
Here’s hoping tonight will provide some anecdotal evidence that this slighty improved lineup will completely turn the tides of the Reds’ season.

Today is the greatest day so far this season in Reds-land
A lineup where probably the 8 best players at their positions are playing, Chris Heisey gets promoted, and Rosie Red gets to go back to Louisville where he belongs. Bask in it, Reds fans.

allow me to reiterate
Wonder what got into dusty ?This is my kind of line up
Dickerson 8 – Gets hits, runs fast, good D
Hairston Jr. 5 – Scrappy, gets hits, real VP
Votto 3 – He is all man
Phillips 4 – Should be switched with Gomes, but we all know BP
Nix 7 – Can’t complain about his ability to jack the ball
Gomes DH – should be cleanup – strong OBP/OPS
Bruce 9 – Good placement, it is just a matter of time and maturation
Hanigan 2 – I hope he’s still hot – this young man is ultra-scrappy
Janish 6 – Who can really play D – with all the other timber in this line up, any hits he gets are gravy
(Bailey 1) – the newest version of Home (Homer 6.0) is going to be successful.Very Successful!
Hope I get to see some of the game tonight.
Speaking of lumber, everyone of these guys wants Joey

Dumb enough to pitch to throw consecutive fastballs to Pujols earlier this year.
Cards won 2-0. Pujols had two homers off him.
He has good stuff. He just doesn’t know when to throw it and to who. Hopefully he gives Joey a few fastballs on 3-1 counts.

I think Homer has turned a corner. I dont recall him having 4 starts in a row anywhere near this dominant in seasons past. Then again, I dont recall any Reds minor league pitcher having 4 such starts either.
We’ll see how it goes this evening. i say 7IP, 2ER.

its impressive. almost all of the hits he’s given up since he started throwing it have been the groundball variety. that should play even better with a major league defense behind him. i think this could be a really impressive outing… 6 or 7 innings, less than 2 runs.

Sorry, forgot to ask . . .
How are you?

Good
except that my oldest took a spill yesterday and will be in a neck brace for a week. His x-rays came back fine, but he’s a 3 year old with a neck sprain. Poor kid.

That's rough
I hope he doesn’t have too much pain with it

He threw 98mph
And walked 7.
106 pitches to get through 5 innings.
Part of it is that the umpire had a small strike zone, but part of it is that Homer struggled with his location.

he couldn't locate it
Even though he may get the win, he couldn’t locate shit.

over at another forum
They decided his arm slot is different, probably because of the splitter. Hence the extra heat.
Though it might be better to throw 95mph and get it over the plate…

His armslot was totally different
I was telling my wife about that . . . I know deaf ears, but she’s the only one here . . .
He looks like more of a drop and drive pitchere here. Before he his shoulders had that upward tilt and a 3/4 arm angle when he released the ball. Looked a lot like Jimmy Haynes. Scary. But now he’s more under control. Even though he missed a lot, it looks like something that he can recover from, and his minor league results in the last month (not many walks) show that he can.

I thought he looked
like Jouhhny Depp
or maybe Paul Gauguin
or Edgar Degas

Sure seems to be
unfortunately we can’t bring the DH spot home lol

And when we go home,
the wrong guy will be benched.

I like seeing the pitchers hit--it makes it a game of strategy
by Red_Poodle on Jun 27, 2009 10:21 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I won't deny that I like me a DH
I just like seeing Bronson bunt too
by Red_Poodle on Jun 27, 2009 10:23 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I like the DH now
because that means the guy Dusty is forced to play a player he would normally bench, which is usually a better player than he would typically have in the lineup.
