Corwin Malone & Dennis Ulcia

[BHAMBARONS]

Just wondering about these two guys. Ulcia was a Baron last year and really picked it up the last two weeks of the season including a dominating effort against the the SL's Most powerful team and then seemed to go on a role after that winning a playoff game and his cutter looked a lot more crisp and was breaking bats. I am just wondering if this is the Dennis Ulcia of old or just a phase.

 

And Corwin Malone, I know he had surgery last season and did not pitch a inning for the knights last year. I am just wondering if he will now be able to return to old self and if he will be ready to start the season in Charlotte.

 

 

Finally Kris Honel, he only pitched 7 innings for the Barons last season, he looked good in his opening day start vs West Tenn, then the Injury I never heard much about the injury only that he was hurt but when he came back his velocity looked way off. Just wondering if it was the injury causing that drop. Finally do you guys think he will start in Bham or Charlotte.

 

I am happy that I finally found a site that I can find good Sox's info and talk with fans. I never had a good sox's site before so that is why I have so many question's about the sox's minor leaguers.

 

 

Thanks Tom

Malone will likely be back in Bham again if he is healthy. Might start him in the bullpen to get him back on track. Ulacia is a borderline guy who could be back in AA again or move up. My guess is that he will struggle in AAA if he does indeed go there.

 

Honel should definitely be back in Bham. His injury last year was a mystery. Some people thought it was mostly in his head. Others thought his mechanics got screwed up. From what I understand docs never could find anything wrong with him, hence the other theories. Time will tell if he can ever find "it" again.
