Betances: “My chang-up was dog shit.”
Bad outing. Great quote.
bah. he actually said “Change-up”
No need for a Keith Law prospect report tonight I guess.
Bad start for Dellin, but still:
7k’s an 8-2 GB/FB ratio in 5 2/3 is still promising.
Yeah, when that’s his worse start of the year, things are okay.
He got over 100 innings and stayed injured free the whole season. Season is a success.
Yep.
+42
With so many pitchers having good yrs, who will be where next yr? I’m thinking Warren & the Three Bs start off in Trenton with an early promo to Brackman or Warren when deserving.
Tell me who I’m missing or who might be wrong….maybe the rotations will look something like this:
AAA
Noesi
Phelps
DJ Mitchell
Pendelton
A Vet like Mosely/Hirsh
AA
Brackman
Banuelos
Warren
Betances
Stoneburner
A+
B. Marshall
S.Hall
S.Black
Jose Ramirez
Romanski
K. Perez
Only thoughts would be if Nova doesn’t make the club, and something like Bliech coming back from injury
Heyer had such a good year that he’ll be starting somewhere. We may see six-man rotations at both spots to get guys used to starting and relieving, or someone moved to the bullpen to get them ready to pitch in New York.
Who from Triple-A or Double-A is most likely to become a reliever eventually? I ask this because not all of them can be in our rotation and 1 or 2 of them may be parts of trades.
If Nova doesn’t make the rotation out of spring training then I think the Yanks will put him in the bullpen. This move can be done because we then still have Noesi in Triple-A ready to spot start when necessary.
How ’bout Romine having a nice little playoffs. He’s had a few dingers. I haven’t seen him play, and we don’t have a wonderful KLaw update on him (did allow a pass ball on Pettite) but perhaps he was able to get his feet back under him after a couple off days maybe? pretty good season i would say.
Brian:
It’s good to see Romine picking his game up again. I go to about 10 Trenton games and his bat looked slow down the stretch. He also looked very frustrated as he game back t othe dugout, so I’m sure his struggles were wearing on him. Next year should so us if he’s for real or not.
