Homer Bailey made a big step in his recovery from Tommy John surgery, throwing well in a bullpen session Monday:
Schebler, who had never faced Bailey before, was certainly impressed with what he saw from his vantage point in the batter’s box.
“Really good stuff, he threw some splitties that were absolutely disgusting, but overall, I was really impressed,” Schebler said. “He looked pretty polished. His fastball had some great life to it and his splitty was really, really good. Some of them were cutting, some of them were dropping off the face of the Earth, it was really impressive. He was around the zone with it, too, which is even more impressive, because sometimes those pitches you can get erratic with it. He was around the zone with it the whole time. … It was impressive, that’s all I can say.”
The Reds hope to get Bailey back in the rotation sometime in May.
