Bedrock, Alvarez & Morin watch!

[Brent Maguire]

I think we see Morin in the next 2 months. Alvarez probably later in the year and Bedrosian may come up as well.

 

Morin would be a nice add since he has great control and and a nasty changeup. He's a totally different pitcher than what we have in our pen now. 

[Stradling]

The sad part is in order to get these guys that we want called up actually called up, then the team is going to have to continue to lose. So I guess the question is, what do we really want?

Wouldnt shock me to see the Angels call up Morin once he's put in 20 or so innings in AA this year -- moving him up would give Alvarez time as the closer.  I'd assume they would want to see him pitch a similar number of innings in that role before then calling up Alvarez.   Bedrosian is a wild card, his stock is rising very quickly.

This is gonna be a fun thread next time Jepsen, Kohn or Salas shits the bed.

so about 3 hours from now?

What I want is the general manager to realize that Jepsen is terrible and replace him immediately, giving this team a better chance to win both now and in the future.

R.J. Alvarez with 2.0 innings pitched with no walks, no hits and 3 strikeouts. Alvarez has struck out 9 in 5.1 innings pitched with a WHIP of 0.58

 

Cam Bedrosian pitched 1.0 inning and struck out every hitter he faced. He has now struck out 15 batters in 5.2 IP with a WHIP of 0.57

 

Brandon Sisk with a perfect inning pitched as well. He has yet to give up any walks or hits while striking out 5 this season (4.0 IP).

Jesus, move Bedrosian up to AA. Those numbers are insane

[SigBaby]

Call up Morin and Sisk. Release Jep and send Jose Alvarez back down. If Jose or Shoemaker look like they're capable of taking the 5 spot in the rotation, that would help the bullpen by allowing Santiago to be put in the pen.

Thanks for the update. I was hoping this thread would inspire member updates of these bullpen arms down on the farm.

Bring them all up! Can't be any worse than what we have now.

Give them some time working with Butchy, and I'm sure they can be just as bad as anyone in the league.

There you have it -- both Alvarez and Morin will be working the 9th moving forward..   Seems pretty obvious they are hitching their wagons to those two guys.

[bloodbrother]

Niice! Morin already promoted to AAA and now Alvarez can get some seasoning as the closer in AA for a bit before he's moved up. I'd like to see Bedrosian moved up shortly as well, because he's making a mockery of the Cal league

[jshep]

Nice!

 

Also, I had absolutely no clue that David Carpenter was still around.

[Homebrewer]

Me too lol..thought how weird it was that there was another David Carpenter in the org now.

Same thing happened in his ST debut. 

 

Chalking this off to jitters! 

[bloodbrother]

In Bedrosian's AA debut tonight he pitched a scoreless inning....striking out the side

 

His stats so far through High A and his 1 outing in AA are

 

6 2/3 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 2 BB, 18 K

[Stradling]

Call that MF'er up

Good lord. That's an insane amount of K's.

 

What's his repitoire?

[bloodbrother]

Only pitched 3 innings this spring, but was also good there. Gave up 0 runs and had 3 K's

 

 

he and RJ Alvarez could be the jolt this pen needs down the stretch if they keep putting up these numbers

[Stradling]

If these guys are as good as advertised then we could have a very good pen late in the season.
