Tim Redding lives with his mommy

Tim Redding has been pitching for Triple-A Buffalo in an attempt to rehabilitate himself from his foot surgery.

Last night, Redding was set to make a start for Buffalo.  The game was rained out, but Buffalo is looking at a double-header today and Redding and Nelson Figueroa are scheduled to make the starts.

While Redding pitches in Buffalo, he’s been living with his mother.

From The Dish:

"I'm actually living with my mom," Redding said before the Bisons were rained out Tuesday night. "I'd rather have home cooking than eating out all the time."

Who wouldn't?

The 31-year old said the 55 minute drive one way twice a day becomes a grind but it's much better than being cooped up in a hotel.

Rarely do you hear of a man making $2.5 million living at home with his mom.  Quite interesting.

Redding will likely be up with the Mets within the next few weeks.
