Something Wayne Krivsky said tonight.......

During tonight's Reds broadcast, Wayne Krivsky was in the booth with George Grand and Chris Welsh, and they began talking about how Bruce, Bailey and Votto were named to the BA Minor League All-Star team. They asked him the arrival times of the three and he said something to the extent of, and I am paraphrasing here: "Jay is in Instructional League right now and will probably start in Sarasota next year. Joey will be at that level between here (Cincinnati) and AA, in AAA. Homer, well we will see with him." He went on to say he was not one to skip prospects over AAA because he feels it is very important in the development of players.

I think it is quite telling that he quickly said Votto would be in AAA but wouldn't commit to saying that Homer Bailey would be.
