The Washington Nationals and Cincinnati Reds game was postponed yesterday but they will try again today at Great American Ball Park. The Reds are slated to send Homer Bailey to the hill. Bailey was awful in 2017, with a record of 6-9 and an ERA of 6.43. He hasn’t seemed to have made any improvements over last year, going 0-2 with an ERA of 7.50 this spring. Bailey made two starts last year against the Nats and was throttled, allowing 16 runs in 5-2/3 innings of work. Washington is expected to give the nod to NL Cy Young Award winner, Max Scherzer. Scherzer was 16-6 last year, with an ERA of 2.51, and was 1-0 against the Reds where he pitched 6 scoreless innings. Washington is 5-0 in their last 5 trips to Cincinnati and All-Star Bryce Harper torched the Reds last year, going 12 for 29 with 3 home runs.
