I would move Vasquez to AA today.

nobody here is talking about Andrew Vasquez though.. The guy has 63 K's in 40 innings. last year 51k's in 38 innings.. 0.89 ERA this year and 1.41 last year. I think this is a guy we have to push up to AA and possibly give this guy a september call up if he keeps it up and rips through AA. looks like he's legit outa the pen

 

I posted something about him last week, he's been awesome.

You don't check here often enough then  I literally just posted within the week videos of him throwing since being drafted.  Vasquez pitches off his breaking balls (2 "different" sliders - one looks like a curve and the other a soft slider) instead of his fastball. He's maybe 30-40% FB for his pitch percentage.  It's the model, thanks to trackman etc, that many pitchers are going towards of throwing your best pitch more often than your fastball.

can't see everything I guess
