Whats even more impressive is that Pinella already thinks so highly of the kid to put him in two games where the Cubs were not winning or losing by a big margin, especially during a tightening pennant race. |

I think with those 99 mph fastballs he was throwing that they'll definitely try to get him into a starting role eventually, but maybe not until next season.

That was the same argument with Joba. Good pitching coaches work their magic and turn guys with electric stuff into quality starters. | |

I am pumped that we have another arm in the open that can bring the heat! I happen to be going up for the 8/2 game and I hope they have his jersey shirts ready by then! |
