Garrett Stallings 2021

[7Mo]

Acquired in the Jose Iglesias trade, Garrett didn't have good months in A+ in May and June.

In 4 starts and 19 IP in July, he has a 0.95 ERA, 0.84 WHIP, 15 K's and 3 walks.

Long way to go for this control pitcher who was the Friday night guy for Tennessee in college (5th round pick by the Angels) and grew up in Chesapeake, Va but July was a step in the right direction.

It seems to me the throw-in from that trade, Jean Pinto, could surpass Stallings.  Pinto ,age 20, already in Delmarva.  I haven't seen any breakdown on his stuff.

Sometimes the Orioles scouting department will amaze you.

Saw Pinto in the FCL. That day he was dominant with a fastball topping at 93 and a very sharp breaking ball that the hitters at the level were over matched by. I didn't see much of a 3rd pitch, though. So, not sure what his total repertoire is, but definitely needs to move up to see how is stuff plays at higher levels. Very good control for that level, also

He is 3 outs away from a no-no in Bowie.

Bowie did it! 11th no hitter! (5th against Senators)!
