Homer Bailey demoted to Reds' bullpen

Cincinnati Reds pitcher Homer Bailey has been moved to the bullpen.

What It Means:

Bailey fell to 1-7 and saw his ERA rise to 6.68 on Monday after allowing 8 runs (6 earned) on 6 hits over only four innings against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The right-hander turned 32 earlier this month and is on the Reds' books through at least the end of the 2019 season.

Bailey averaged 15.0 FanDuel points in 12 games as a starter with 38 strikeouts and 24 walks over 62 innings.
