He made his first start of the season and it was not pretty. I watched the game and his stuff looked very poor. His stuff is not great so I see why his prospect status is low though he had good numbers in minors. He still may make it but he will have o have pin point control.

Thanks for the update.

I was wondering why it was only his first start of the season, and I saw that he started the year at AAA-Colorado Springs.

It will be interesting to see how he does as the season progresses.

Sounds like a lot went wrong behind him according to the story. http://www.jsonline.com/sports/brewers/brewers-at-pirates-b99708021z1-375961661.html

Haha on the "scouting report" in the OP. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Prior to missed play in CF, Davies was fortunate to not have more runs scored. McCutchen was caught stealing in the first before a a walk and a single. He issued three walks and didn't get many swings and misses.

It's only one start.

Potential back-end guy that will take his share of lumps. That's nothing to sneeze at from a value standpoint -- cheap arm is a cheap arm.

Did better last night to go six innings against Philly. Still gave up four runs on nine hits. Dropped his ERA to under 10. I think he gets the Cubs next.

Four runs in five innings tonight. Got that ERA under 9.

Had a little help with a triple play in the fifth.

Best outing by far today against LAA. 2 runs in six innings in a no decision. Drops his ERA to right around 7.

Davies has a 5.75 ERA and a 1.556 WHIP after 7 starts so far this season.

I'd like to see at least 7 or 8 more starts to see if he can show some signs of recovering from his rough start to the season.

And we still got absolutely nothing for him. He could end up being the worst starting pitcher in the history of baseball, but at the time we traded him, that wasn't what he was valued out. And we gave him up for a negative WAR rental.

In four starts in May he's 2-2, with a 3.97 ERA, batters are slashing .220/.286/.439/.725 with a 15/8 K/BB ratio in 22.2 innings. That's not bad for his rookie year.

He's performed as you said he would.

That's not bad for his last 4 starts (when that post was made.)

For his rookie year overall, he was very bad early on and has rebounded nicely since, especially with the 8 shutout innings that he threw today against the Cardinals.
