Yes, the title isn't a mistake.
His line wasn't good (expectedly...) 5 innings, 11 hits, 8 runs, 2 walks, 2 strike outs, 2 home runs allowed. No worries about him being the next Ohtani.
Delmarva pitched a "bullpen game" Saturday.
I'm a big fan of Kevin Brown esp when he's paired w/ Ben McDonald. I know that some of you hate the back and forth needling between Kevin and Ben but I think it's just part of their routine. To me, Kevin and Ben are the A Team. Like to hear Palmer for the stories if he's paired w/ someone like Kevin otherwise he just sort of meanders.
I’m not sure that anyone/many were hardline against him being sent down. I thought they should have given him another weeks worth of games, for example.
Either way, I’m happy to be wrong about the sending down if the belief in him is vindicated. Frankly, it was a very loud minority who wanted him gone.
Looks like they are making room at Delmarva for probably O’Ferrall and Anderson from our 2024 draft. No idea on the pitcher. They recently added Yeiber Cartaya from the FCL and gave him a start. They had him clocked at 94/95 in the first inning. I only saw fastballs and sliders but he looked good. So the pitcher could be another FCL promotion, a draftee, or even someone coming off the IL. Guess we’ll find out soon.
