He's a little older, but he's lefthanded and he's been effective when healthy. I'm curious as to what kind of stuff he has. Is his FB still in the mid-high 80's? Secondary stuff?

I really like Nery, who doesn't throw all that hard but brings an above average curveball to the table. Nery sits 87-90 (peak) with his fastball and he mixes up a nice 12-6 curveball and a changeup (I believe??).

He's probably a fringe prospect at best, but I've been pleased with the fact he's going deep into ballgames on a consistent basis, despite a 2-3 record. He does have the stuff to do what he did last night, limiting Potomac to one hit.

Thanks Adam! That was just what I was looking for.
