Oh, I have no idea, but he is surely one of a handful of pitchers we have that exploded this year. We don't have many very encouraging hitters this year, but for the most part, pitching has been great from a lot of young guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce_Blixton Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Heidenreich has been on fire this year, honestly I think he probably has more upside than most, if not all, of our pitching prospects. (even more upside than Homberg, before he got traded away) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(even more upside than Homberg, before he got traded away) I agree, but that's because, at least in my mind, he is only 19 years old and is showing such great command and strike-out ability. Rienzo is really impressing me, but Heidi is doing it at such a young age, it's exciting to think of him possibly making it to the bigs around age 22.

Rookie ball numbers without some kind of track record or glowing scouting report are relatively meaningless. Hitters at that level will swing at anything, making the BB/9 a little less impressive, and hitters at that level will swing at anything, making the 6.85 K/9 completely unimpressive.

Chisoxfn Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Heidenrich has good stuff. Nice veloc on his fastball and is considered pretty projectable. Last year during the draft I had heard some buzz from a scout on him and he raved about his "upside". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrenBlackwood Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Heidenreich is going up to Kannapolis after his next start in Bristol.

scenario Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I'm a little concerned about us sending a guy whose arm hurts out to start more games. Has he told anybody his arm is sore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he told anybody his arm is sore? I'm not certain if he has or not ..I can find out though. I'm sure they probably know ..Chase said Heidi threw an 81 mph fast ball the other day ..if it hurts so bad that he's dreading going up, I'm sure it's noticeable. You would think so anyway.

NorthSideSox72 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 01:18 PM) How hard does he usually throw? A lot harder than 81 I'm sure. He's not a knuckle-baller. This just doesn't sound good - a 19 year old's arm is hurting and he's throwing 81 mph. I sure hope he tells someone.

Well, it's only a promotion for 1 game, so it's really not a big deal anyway. And if he is burnt out in the arm and thought he only had to push through 1 more start, then I can understand him being bummed that he has to pitch in 1 extra game.

I can see him being tired and just wanting a break, that's understandable ..but at the same time, it's just a little bit longer, suck it up Heidi and get your ass out there and play some damn baseball!
