Homer Bailey already out for season, Mesoraco in limbo, minor league injuries and some housekeeping
We get the first (and always highly anticipated!) injury report of the season four weeks in. Mainly, this delay is because I have been waiting for minor league rosters to shake out, but it also coincides with the breaking of the first devastating bit of injury news for this year. Homer Bailey will miss all of 2015 and probably part of the 2016 season as well with Tommy John surgery. In a season where the Reds were (are) probably going to need some good luck to be in playoff contention, losing the #2 starter for basically the whole year is a major blow to their hopes.
