GAME SUMMARY

[btdart20]

A lot of our guys were in the game last night.

Cook, Rhodes, and Pavolony combined to go 1 for 11 with a 2B (Rhodes) and RBI (Cook).  Woof...  

Baumler, Van Loon, and Peek combined to go 7 IP, 9 H, 9 R, 7 K, 6 BB, 2 HR.  Woof...

Baumler was solid (4 IP, 4 H, 3 K, 1 BB, 2 R).  37 of 56 pitches were strikes (66%).  6 ground outs to 0 fly outs.  His K/BB and GO/AO ratios are both among the league lead.  And Babip against hasn't been kind either.

Baumler is by far the most intriguing prospect we have in the AFL,   His performance has been impressive, especially considering his lack of pro experience.

Hopefully, the velo picks up.  Gameday had his fastball around 91-93 but lt looks like he doesn’t use it a lot.  I saw highlights from his first start and it looked like all 6 strikeouts were on breaking pitches and what looked like a pretty good changeup.   He looked good but nothing special.  Of course, he’s hardly pitched the last 3 years so he could make a big jump in all areas.

He was 92-94 when we drafted him.

92-94 before TJ and shoulder problems.  Well, 91-93 is close enough to 92-94 for me.   He could still be really good at that velocity if the command and secondaries are plus.  I would still hope he can get into the 94-96 range though.
