David Hess

[Frobby]

Glad to see him righting the ship. I figure he repeats at Bowie next season.

[Rene88]

Glad to see him righting the ship. I figure he repeats at Bowie next season.

Still a big fan despite the nay-sayers. We will see but I think he turns the corner in a big way in the next year.

[Can_of_corn]

Time to move him to Norfolk.

You do know the minor league season is pretty much over right?

Got about a week left.

Hess retired the first 9 batters that he faced. 

In the 4th inning, he had 2 outs and a man on 1st base when an error prolonged the inning, which allowed 2 unearned runs to score.

In the 5th inning, he retired the first 2 batters that he faced before ceding 5 consecutive base-runners (4 singles and walk), which allowed 3 runs to score.

In the 6th inning, another error allowed the first batter that he faced to reach safely. He then ceded a walk, and was removed from the game.

Certainly putting himself back on the radar after a fairly poor 2016.  Good to see.  Seems like a likely bullpen guy to me, but we've seen how good DD and Buck are at finding value in guys like that.

[sportsfan8703]

Seems like he was everyone's hottest prospect at the beginning of last year and now he hardly gets mentioned.  He had a bad first to around in Bowie at age 22. Now he's 23 and off the a good start. 

The season has started and things have changed a little. Is he a top 10-15 guy again?

I caught a bit of this game and saw him snap off a few good curveballs, both for called strikes and GBs.  His fastball is ok, but he'll live and die by the sharpness of his secondaries.
