推 RollingWave:Homer Bailey評價之前比Hughes高是因為他能丟出100mph01/08 10:51
→ RollingWave:但是他過去兩年的速球基本上跟(失速後)的Hughes一樣01/08 10:52
→ RollingWave:而原來就不大行的變化球跟控球還是沒變好01/08 10:52
只對原來不大行的變化球這句感到很感冒
這篇簽約官網舊文是這樣說的

Reds pick Homer Bailey No. 7
Cincinnati selects high school right-hander first
By Todd lorenz / MLB.com
As a 6'4", 185-pound pitcher, he probably wouldn't have been so highly sought
after if it did.
"We like his physical abilities, first of all," said Reynolds. "His fastball
is 92-96 mph. He has an outstanding down curveball, excellent makeup and has
been a premium performer in the state of Texas since his freshman year."

Homer Bailey - Ace or Talented Underachiever?
這篇文也提到失速及控球變差的問題, 但懷疑是鼠蹊傷勢的問題
小小摘錄一小段
Bailey also has a plus curveball of the power variety in that the bottom
drops out as it approaches the batter. Again, when Bailey gets excellent
extension, it helps his off-speed stuff play up as well. His change-up is
mostly a show-me pitch right now, but it is slowly improving to average
quality.
For a guy with such electric stuff, Bailey's overall numbers don't capture
that completely. The low amount of hits is a positive, and the K% of 27 in
both 05 and 06 is also very good, but I think his K% should be higher given
how good his stuff is. In addition, his K% was just 22.1 last year. His
control and command improved dramatically in 2006, but regressed this past
year. Bailey has also had a BB% of less than 10 at just one minor league
level over his career. I do realize he was injured for a chunk of last year,
but his numbers were not as impressive as they should have been considering
the quality of his stuff.
何來變化球本來就不太行的評語...............................................
