"Minor Moves: Gorgen
Charlotte Stone Crabs closer Matt Gorgen has been promoted to the double-A Montgomery Biscuits, after saving his 15th game of the year tonight for the high-A Stone Crabs. In 28 appearances this year, Gorgen has only allowed 3 earned runs in 47.2 IP. He has pitched to a 4-0 record with a 0.57 ERA. Florida State League batters have only hit .151 against him.

Gorgen was the Rays' 16th round pick in the 2008 draft. He pitched for Hudson Valley last season, recording a 1.96 ERA with 13 saves."

hurray for good cheap arms!

The Rays are quietly assembling some very high-upside bullpen arms in McGee, Gorgen, and Meloan. Hopefully some of these guys, if not all, pan out and give the Rays some great arms for the pen.

Better question:

Anybody got a scouting report on what he throws?

.
Gorgen works primarily off his mid 80’s cutter and a fastball in the low 90’s. It would be nice to see him develop a trustworthy off speed pitch to increase the chance of future success at higher levels.

depends how good that cutter is

Dan Haren added a cutter to his arsenal and that might propel him to the NL Cy Young. And we all know how good Rivera’s cutter is. Is there any more information about his pitches out there, in terms of plus, plus-plus pitch, etc? Obviously results are saying something, and we’ll know more once he reaches higher levels of competition.
