    Didn't Nick Hernandez give up a ton of runs the last time he pitched for us? He looks terrible.

    Cam.

    However, because of dubon going after the ball caused Cam to not be able to go after the ball full speed. Cam would have crashed into Dubon for sure had he try to catch that ball full effort.

    Expanding on this…before the season I said I could see him having a Jackson Merrill type year. Both very similar in that they had barely any experience at the AA level and unexpectedly won the job in spring training.

    Jackson Merrill’s stats through May were VERY similar to Cam. His OPS was below .700 with only 3 homers. He turned it on the rest of the season and never looked back.

    It’s extremely hard to hit MLB pitching, especially without time in AA+. The fact Cam didn’t look completely lost is a testament to how good this kid is going to be.

    Ole boy needs to be sent back down tomorrow.

    This isn't working out. He was abysmal last year in the little action he saw up here.

    Hernandez really labored there in the 9th but got the job done eventually.

    Glad the offense is putting up some more runs the last couple games.

    Espada is literally warming up Hader (very hot) as we speak in an 11-4 game with 2 outs in the 9th.
    the dude eats paint chips man.
