I think you confused Olmedo with Olmstead? Olmstead is a big 1B/OF at Sarasota.

I don't think Olmedo has started playing yet.

I believe you're correct on the confusion.

It's probably time that I go have a snack and then head to bed.

FARM REPORT: D.J. Mattox, the 23-year-old right-hander, made his season debut at Single-A Sarasota Friday. Mattox, a Rule 5 selection last year who is coming back from "Tommy John" surgery, allowed one earned run on two hits over three innings. He walked four and struck out three.

thats good for DJ, i have been really interested in what he can produce. hopefully he can straighten out his control problems

[redsrbetter]

If Miley does not find Freel as a starter soon, then DJ will be back in the lineup screwing things up again. So Miley may have to take interest in Bergolla and then Howard. I am glad to see that we have prospects that can possibly do some things in the major leagues to replace someone that can't. (at least he can't for now.)

[redsrbetter]

Anyone know how good Bergolla and Howard are defensively?

Homer Bailey is pitching today:

so far-3 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 5 K....aside from his bad first inning in his first outing of the year, he's dominated since.

He now has 15 K's in 8.1 IP this year(16.7 K/9)

LHP Phil Dumatrait made his first Double-A start for Chattanooga, surrendering 2 runs -- one earned -- and 5 hits in 4 innings, walking zip and K'ing 6. Dumatrait, who missed last season due to "Tommy John" surgery, was just promoted from High-A Sarasota where he posted a 2.70 ERA in 3 starts and fanned 13 batters in 10 innings. I think Dumatrait, 23, is still a quality pitching prospect and he could end up helping the Reds in 2006.
