Still trying to figure out how a pitcher with the name of "Homer" throws 2 no nos in 10 months.

Truth is stranger than fiction

Homer's name is David but I don't think he'd come if you called him that.

Gomer fits the guy better...Jekyl-n-Hyde pitcher...NEVER know what your goid to get.

Um .... I think Bailey is a reliable 3 man in a rotation and has been for a couple of years.
I think he's a pitcher who needs to get a little early run support though. He has some putaway stuff finally.

Homer was the best pitcher in baseball the 2nd half of last season...

I think there's a good chance of a repeat of that this season.

Despite the fact that he can be flat dominant at times, the win moved him to just 5-6 with a 3.57 ERA and 1.06 WHIP on the year.

GL2U with him in your rotation. He's good @ times, just not consistent enough all of the time.

And you enjoy the Pirates annual 2nd half ride down the shitter.

The ride started boarding tonight.

Bailey was dealing tonight. As pissed as I am about my boys, you gotta respect the other guy.

Nice game.

Bailey and the entire rotation has been victimized by an inconsistent offense.
That was true tonight as well. Really, not much offense against Lincy.
Clearly, Reds are going to have to go a different direction if they plan to win.
Cueto is a huge loss.

The impact of Cueto's loss depends on Cingrani. If he continues to pitch well, the Reds still have 5 starters capable of shutting down any lineup any night.

Losing Marshall and Ludwick have been far more problematic IMO just because their replacements haven't filled in as well as Cingrani has.

Time will tell with the Pyrats.

Where's Cincy in the Division numbnutz? Oh yeah, in the rear with the gear!


BTW Cincy trogs...your AWAY record is pitful and most likely your clubs downfall this year, but then again there's always "Gomer" in the rotation. :laugh3:

If your objective was to be a troll, you've succeeded. What other points do you have?
It's the first of July and your Parrots have collapsed, crashed and burned every year since Bill Clinton was president.

Let me clue you in, so as to not let your immaturity overwhelm you. Brag about winning something after you win something. After you win something, there's no need to brag. But if you come onto a Reds board and start throwing around insults, we will have you banned from the board.

That ought to be clear enough. We aren't here to be nice to Parrots fans. We are here to discuss the Reds. If you want to discuss the Reds, understand that we aren't likely to be kissing ass with Parrots fans.

So whatever your summer smells like, so far ... your boys ain't won squat yet.

As fans, we don't get paid for our team to win. If you think insulting us makes you mature, guess again.
Troll.

Pirates fans in general are pompous ass wipes. 34 years of losing and if you had to spend 10 minutes around them, you would think they have won more championships than the Yankees. After 4 years in Morgantown and a few weekends since, I have seen several busted lips and a few teeth knocked out for running their chops. They know better than to hurl that bullshit in Motown. The pirates in all fairness have a great squad but they to will run into their rough patch.
