PHOENIX -- It appears that Reds starting pitcher Homer Bailey could soon be moved to the bullpen, but that was not finalized on Tuesday.
"We talked with Homer earlier today," Reds interim manager Jim Riggleman said. "We're contemplating moving him to the bullpen. It's going to be a real transition. We've got a few days to sort it out and see, with more to discuss with [pitching coaches] Danny Darwin and Teddy Power, Homer and myself to see how that would work for him."
Bailey, 32, pitched four-plus innings and allowed eight runs (six earned), six hits and one walk with three strikeouts in Monday's 12-5 loss to Arizona.
