Hunter Greene will make his first Triple-A start for the Louisville Bats Thursday night in Omaha, so can we at least wait until Friday morning to start screaming for him to come to The Show?
Those of a Certain Age will recall the non-stop fan demands in 2007 to promote Homer Bailey, the last Reds kid pitcher with Greene’s potential. Then-GM Wayne Krivsky resisted the bleatings, determined to bring Bailey up when Homer was ready. Krivsky believed bringing a marquee pitching prospect up too early was far worse than getting him here too late.
