Dude had a monster performance for IE last night

 

7ip 2h 12k 0er.  

 

looks like he started the year as a reliever and has been moved into a starting role.  

 

What do we know about him?

His Dad was a pitcher in the Astros system, from the Northeast, we got him from a Juco in FL....   He used to be a two seam FB/slider guy.   He added a change after turning pro...    Would be neat if he ends up being a project that paid dividends.

It's funny you guys brought him up as I mentioned him as a possible trade target (by other teams) once or twice in my Trade Article series. It just seems like he's put it all together. In 2013 he was horrible against RHP, in 2014 he was bad against LHP. This year he's torching both (probably due to that changeup improving). It seems like he is the real deal.

It may be that adding the change has complete upped his performance.  Not that it's a plus pitch or anything, just that teams have a third weapon to guard against.
