It's spring training. Chill. Even the Drew Hensons of the world can look like superstars. That's one thing I don't get. How can teams make the decision to call up a guy, say a journeyman, who has had absolutely no success in the majors, based off 1 month? Let alone 1 month of exhibition games where nobody is close to full throttle. It's nonsense. |

Agreed. There are ALWAYS players in spring training that are incredibly lucky and streaky...cough...Chris Shelton...but yeah. It's always the exceptional players that come around and still performing come september. |

Wherd. I can't see how JCM is afraid of getting Lowry after one shitty game this spring. I don't want to trade him anyways...I'd rather keep him. Good back end of the rotation starer. |

Yeah but 9 walks is unheard of. Even in a exhibition game where pitchers are just getting in shape.. 24 pitches without a hitter taking a swing? His next start should be closely watched. |

Yes, but this isn't just "working out the kinks". As NGO pointed out, this is a terrible sign if he cant even get near the strikezone. I mean, he had 87 walks in 156 IP last season. Only 6 guys had more walks than him last year, and 4 of those 6 had at least 200 IP. ST or not. 9 Walks, 2 WP, and a ball thrown into the stands is not something that "just happens" in the spring, it's a huge red flag. |
