He's been pretty unimpressive until this season. Hopefully, he has truly harnessed something that can be helpful to the major league squad.

B&B just read a scouting report on him (not sure from who/where), but:
- Plus-plus fastball
- LHHs can't touch him
- Sometimes doesn't know where it's going

Looking at BR, he's a converted OF (didn't spend very long being an OF though), with super high BB/9 and K/9 - as well as a very low HR/9.

Sounds like a Roman emperor.

Sounds like something you flush down the drain once a month. Hope he lasts longer than that.

Just joking, good luck, kid.

Sounds like someone greeting Timo Perez.

He's got some big shoes to fill!

Indeed. He only has to do better than a 6.50ish E.R.A. and not walk/hit batters constantly to improve upon who he is replacing.
