    He's a puzzle.

    First it's his ERA. It certainly has come down. 3.85

    His fast ball is climbing in velocity. I saw 94mph in the clip. That is high for him. Been a struggle to get over 92mph until last year.

    His stuff lives in mid 80's. Obv nice movement. He's been changing his mix as his 4 seam gets faster. This should help.

    He definitely was not a strike out guy. Despite the video. So far anyway. Lotta ground balls off sinker, slider. Too many line drives. BABIP kinda guy, playing with the wrong infield given his style.

    Stetson College. Lol, a baseball field with a cafeteria and a few classrooms to keep NCAA at bay.

    Decent size.

    He's got upside - this needs to be his year. I'd take him for my team.

    Thx for heads up.

    i realize this was only a few games, but what a display. his stuff in those vids is as nasty as it comes. halladay like, but harder and more movement.

    Stetson is actually a pretty highly regarded college academically but I agree with most of what you said

    My bad.

    Word of mouth got me.

    Local hotshot - Area Code Games and all that - played with my son over the years. This kid gets full ride to Stetson. Doesn't get the love or the playing time he was always accustomed to. Familiar story, right?

    Kid transfers out to another school - ends up back with my son. Kid homered Sunday, by the way.

    Northern kid discrimination and didn't like the coach, he says.

    He described the school that way to me.

    Consider the source, right? Listening to 19 year hotshots is DD.

    The problem with your theory is that he plays for Cleveland, and nothing good ever happens in Cleveland sports.

    i could give a rats ass where he went to school. but why isn't anybody in MLB talking about this guy? only a handful of pitchers in MLB possess stuff like this guy.

    you can't smoke and mirror his stuff...and btw....he kind of looks like kevin millwood..lol

    Complete game shutout, 85 pitches, Maddux-like the past few games. Considering the Indians can't score, one of the few bright spots.

    Been following for some time. I've never seen anyone make a prediction like this about such an obscure player and be right.

    i'm pretty shocked that no GM didn't see this years ago. you can;t fake this kind of talent and not have the right numberss come along, eventually... if i was GM'ing a team i would have gone out of my way to acquire him. thing is, he might not of been available, and/or some GM's are pretty awful at their jobs, or sadly spotted it. plenty of incompetence.

    GL..i have a team next year that i think has a good chance at the playoffs..and maybe more. team is way down on everyone's radar. if i think they'll be good, that usually means an O/U bet is in order as well. i really don;t want to say who it is in here. but take one guess. and if it;s right i will spill it.

    im gonna guess the muts...

    I just looked at their record and im shocked that theyre around 500...next year they get Harvey back and they'll trot out Harvey/wheeler/neise/de grom...I just don't think they have enough offense to make the playoffs though...if they actually loosen up the fucking purse strings and get a decent bat or two (and not a guy like fucking granderson) they could actually bring some noise back to flushing...
