4/14 Games - Day with 16 K in 5.2 IP this year

Honel didn't pitch but Wing did and pitched well for 3 innings. Collaro also went yard.

 

Sonix- I would imagine they are just stretching him out. That was his first start and only second appearance of the year. In his last outing he went 3 innings and didn't allow a baserunner. They probably have him on a pitch count. It probably was higher this time because he allowed 3 baserunners in his 3 innings this time.

Dony Lucy is a beast, and Valido finally started to hit today. Wonder why Honel didn't pitch... injury again!?

 

Cunningham and that Schurnenstin guy are both tearing it up. Lujan with a scoreless inning. Lol, Kinston has a player with the name Constanza!

 

Knights won it in extras... Fields got two critical rbi's it seems like though to help win it. Jerry Owens going 1 for 3, but he had 4 WALKS! and 3 runs scored. That is great. Why isn't Terrero playing? Instead they have been playing that bum Kelly.

Why is Day not at AAA? Just not enough space. 16 K's in 5.2 IP? Get him up.

 

why is he not being converted to starting; i know hes older but he has a fresh live arm.

Am I to believe of the 17 outs recorded by Day only 1 hasn't been via the strikeout?

 

This guy must have a slider comparable to Brad Lidge. And a fastball fairly close.

Yes. That's why the Sox put him on the 40 man.

 

And his real first name is Amos.

I love how you just threw in that little fact...

 

Too bad it took Day so long to finally harness some his potential, but good for us, because we got him.

And you remember how dangerous that combo was for Lidge before he got the heebie jeebies mentally from Mr. Pujols.

 

We might have something with Day. He's been a good find from our scouts nonetheless. Still needs to work on his fastball though from I hear.

I've heard otherwise. Ever since the AFL last year, he's been very consistant with the fastball and has been relying on the slider less. I've heard his slider is graded between 60-70 on the scouting scale, and his fastball just needs to find the zone to accompany it.

I probably should have worded my statement better. What I meant was that in no way is the fastball comparable to his slider, but yes it is getting better, but it's something that he still IMHO needs to keep improving to help him make it to the majors.

Does anybody have a subscription to Baseball Prospectus? If so, there's news on Dewon Day in Kevin Goldstein's Monday Ten-Pack that I'd like to see.

CWS, if you happen to receive that bit of information would you mind PM'ing it to me?
