No word on velocity
I am not about to give up on the guy for bad command, I just like him being back
Congrats to Longoria, Bartlett, Zobrist, and Crawford. Vote for Pena!
Not this year.
I haven’t heard any reports on his velocity or secondary stuff, so it’s impossible to say. First his stuff has to come back. There is also the question of what role he’s used in. Most speculate his future is in the pen, but it appears the organization hasn’t given up on the idea of him as a starter. When he’s healthy, I’ve always liked him more than Davis.

His inconsistent secondary stuff.
Pre injury his curve was closer to average than it was plus. His change had potential, with solid sink and fade, but he rarely trusted it enough to throw it. I love him, but he’s not necessarily going to be ready even next year if they’re planning on using him as a starter.

I see him as a reliever.
And a pretty good one. Suppress the BB, emphasize the K, and limit innings.
He was the best starting pitching prospect in our system
when he got hurt, well, sans Price. They’re going to give him a chance to start.
