twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Twinsnorth. .........Hendricks has a higher ceiling.....wow that just shows how opinions vary, I would put Hendricks at the bottom, all the others have at least one MLB plus pitch or they are left handed , they have something....Hendricks has marginal stuff ,no swing & miss pitch..just don't see a high ceiling there... Well he's averaged around 8.0 K/9 over 6 minor league seasons, has a sub 2.00 ERA at Rochester this year and most importantly he's 23, I think I would hedge my bets that Hendriks has a better chance of improving enough to be a decent 3 or 4 starter in the majors than any of the others do The only lefty in that group is Duensing and the only one with any kind of major league plus pitch is Deduno with that loopy curve, unfortunately that is somewhat mitigated by his overall unfamiliarity with the strike zone half the time.
greengoblinrulz Provisional Member Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Manship is out of options, so there is no worry there.Noticed the ROC activated JR Towles/Mike Hollimon from DL. This had them @ 25players BEFORE the 2 pitchers being sent down.What's the guess on the player to be released(??) to get them to 25??
