semiotter Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 Im thinking he is starting today against CC ? Quote
ArmyBengal Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 Yep, he gets the start against CC and if there is any hope that the Reds make a run, Homer needs to keep from giving up so many runs early on and putting the team in a hole they can't get themselves out of. NOW IS THE TIME HOMER !!!WHODEY !!! Quote
kevinc1129 Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 It doesn't matter if he's pitching against CC or DD, the kid needs to throw strikes. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 So I was doing nothing (of course) and decided to go see how our boy Homer did after being sent back down to Louisville June 18th...In his 4 games started before being recalled for todays game, he went 0-3 with one no decision.He pitched 24.1 innings and gave up 29 hits and 14 earned runs, while striking out 27.While it's nice to see his strikeouts get up there, he's obviously still having issues even in triple A. This is NOT what you want to see happening to your youngster in the minors. He should be dominating and he's not. This move would never have happened had Harrang not been injured. All I can say is, good luck Homer !!! I really am pulling for the kid, but it's not looking good...WHODEY !!! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 Homer just got pulled after going 5.2 and only giving up 1 earned run and striking out 4. The Reds are up 2-1, but there is still plenty of ball to be played...I'll take that from Homer.Edit, before I got a chance to add the reply, Bray just gave up a double tying the game. Bray got yanked.WHODEY !!! Quote
semiotter Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 Homer looked good. CC being CC was to much for the REDS today. Jerrys hurt again...Geeeez. And the REDS keep making those silly mistakes good teams dont make. Quote
kevinc1129 Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 Great effort by Bailey yesterday. As well as Sabathia pitched, the Reds were in a position to win the game. This one was all on Dusty...there's no way Bray should have been in there against Kapler.Hopefully Hairston will be OK, they are a completely different team with him in the lineup. Quote

Six runs in five and a third, sinking his record to 0-6 while seeing his ERA balloon up to 7.93. Are there no other options at this point? Quote
kevinc1129 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 I think they are just about out of options across the board. Quote
gregstephens Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Posted August 7, 2008 I think they are just about out of options across the board.I don't think so. They are destroying any chance this kid has at making it in the future. Season's over. Can't they pick up an older retread pitcher to finish the rotation? Homer will never be any good as they let him get shelled on a regular basis. Quote
