MIKE LEAKE RUMORS & GOSSIP
In brief: Former Red Affeldt overcomes homophobia
Last game
Mike Leake, fresh off the worries of being demoted to the minors for some up-start rookie, dominated the New York Mets last night, shutting them out for 7 innings, while allowing only 3 hits. The offense used a game plan that I think should be repeated in the future and scored all the runs the team needed in the first. Sure some of it was due to the Mets pretending to be...
Leake in Control
Mike Leake’s four-year career has seen multiple threats to his spot in the rotation. During nearly all of that time is that he has continued to throw the ball for the first pitch every fifth day. He was the first starting pitcher in over twenty years to bypass the minor leagues before his MLB debut and is just now entering what should be the peak years of his career.

Leake Stifles Marlins
The Miami Marlins put together eleven hits on Wednesday but couldn’t score one run as they were shut out 4-0 by Mike Leake and the Cincinnati Reds. With a run coming in the first inning, Miami trailed all game to fall to 11-29 on the year. The Marlins continue to stay on a pace that could come close to the worst record in MLB history.

The Phillies Offense Has Sprung a Leake
In 2012, the Phillies faced Reds pitcher Mike Leake twice and destroyed him to the tune of 13 runs. He had an overall ERA against the Phils of 17.55. Ouch. But last night, this team sprung Leake from his Phillies prison, allowing him to mow them down one hitter after another.
Ah, sweet freedom for Mr. Leake. He must be quite relieved this morning.
On the exact opposite side, the...

Reds need not give up on Mike Leake just yet
The biggest question looming over Reds camp this spring was finally answered on Friday. Cuban southpaw Aroldis Chapman will officially begin the season as the team's closer, assuming the same role that he excelled at in 2012. This after the Reds were adamant that Chapman would pitch in the starting rotation in 2013.
Opinions regarding the decision are quite mixed among the...
Moving Mike Leake to bullpen could be best for all
The plan to transition Cuban phenom Aroldis Chapman from reliever to starter is one widely welcomed by Reds fans. In fact, it is probably a move that is being secretly lauded by current Reds players as well. However, there may one guy in particular who isn't so thrilled by the team's decision. And that guy is right-hander Mike Leake.
This is because Chapman's new...
