Joba was named Florida State League pitcher of the week, but that’s not as cool as being part of a River Ave Blues Watch. Â

Ivan Nova: 5.1 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 3 K- just called up from Extended Spring, and don’t be fooled by this start, he’s legit…92-94 mph fastball, knockout changeup, and decent curve for the 20 yr old

Chris Kunda: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 Er, 0 BB, 0 K, 0-3 GB/FB – second baseman by trade, and he never even threw a pitch while at Oregon State…
David “nails in the coffin” Robertson hasn’t pitched in a game since May 6th…these injuries are getting frustrating…
