    Thanks. I'm trying to remember has he ever started a game for us?

    Isn't he our most hyped minor league pitcher?

    Edit: I was thinking Martes.

    The thing that REALLY separates separates this team from years past is the fact that they never give away at bats. If they are up 3 in the 9th or down 6 in the 8th, they still look to work the count and find something to drive.

    That's the sign of an outstanding baseball team.

    Dang right! woooooo

    Reddick also wore the hell out of their starter and drove that pitch count up real quick with some great at bats that dont show up in the box score. Stuff like that is sometimes overlooked.

    Looking again...... LMAO @myself anyway.

    You said "42nd" right there in the response.

    Shouldn't have ever been a mix-up.

    Career minor league WHIP of 1.77. So, yes.

    He does throw upper 90s, so he's got that going for him. Basically, he's Wilfredo Rodriguez.

    Guduan put in 7 years in the minors, so I'm happy for him.

    I don't expect too much, to be honest.
