Kris Honel

Well, despite the 'corpse ball' and 2 should-be Un-earned runs, here's Kris Honel's line from his Appalacian League start last night in Bristol in a 4-0 defeat

K.Honel (L,0-3) 7.0 6 2 0(ER) 0(BB) 8(K) 2.57(season ERA)

Pretty impressive.

Add to that, Corwin Malone had another dominant outing last night in an 11 inning loss. Joe Valentine blew the save, but here is Corwin's line:

Malone 8.0 6 1 1(ER) 0(BB) 8(K) 1.17(season ERA)

Kris Honel is the real deal I watched most of his HS games and he can pitch.His curve is almost unhittable.

I actually saw him when he was with Providence too. I think he was playing Br. Rice or something. Anyways, damn. I have never seen a curve break like tha from an 18-year old. When he can get that curve over the plater, hitter's have no chance.
