Nice reward for the great season he is having.

Hope he still gets acknowledged but I'd be shocked if he pitches given what happened yesterday.

More than half way through the season and 6 G, 21 IP and a 4.30 ERA are not all star stats. He is deservedly a top prospect, but between the suspension and the recent ouchie, we have not seen very much yet.

Wasn't turned on. I'm multitasking with watching the WC on the telly, doing a little paperwork, and screwing around on the internet and that went right past me.
