May 5, 201115 yr Buente (1-0) allowed just three hits and one walk while striking out four in running his consecutive scoreless inning streak to 14, dating to the fifth inning iof his April 23 start at Albuquerque. Buente lowered his ERA to a Pacific Coast League-leading 1.35. KID IS ON FIRE RIGHT NOW!
May 5, 201115 yr He didn't look too terrible in a short stint with the Marlins last year. He seems to have good stuff.
May 5, 201115 yr Nice. I mentioned in a thread the other day how we have 4 or so guys just killing it in relief in AAA right now.
May 6, 201115 yr Author Havent met him yet. But you have to admit guy comes out of the bullpen and has been nails in his starts.
May 9, 201115 yr Author When is this guy going to get a chance with the big club. Complete game 4 hitter today. Lowered ERA to 1.26 http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110509&content_id=18847180&vkey=news_t588&fext=.jsp&sid=t588

May 10, 201115 yr I didn't realize he was starting games down there, interesting. I think he'd always been a reliever in the minors.
May 15, 201115 yr Buente is our organization's top starter right now he should be considered for a callup soon
May 15, 201115 yr I didn't realize he was starting games down there, interesting. I think he'd always been a reliever in the minors. He was a strictly a reliever until now
May 15, 201115 yr He's really been extremely impressive. ~.7 WHIP as a starter. 32 K in 33 IP, just 6 walks. Batter are .163 against him for the year, and .162 as a starter. Did he add a pitch? Why did they convert him to starter? I'd really like a story about this, but I can't find anything.
May 16, 201115 yr They shouldn't mess with him and have him start the entire year. No call ups, no extra pressure. See if it works out. He's not making or breaking the 2011 season.
May 16, 201115 yr Author He became a starter April 23rd. He had a rough outing yesterday but still has been by far the most consistent starter for the Z's.
May 22, 201115 yr Author This guy was unhittable in AAA and only lasts 3 innings in todays start. Is there really that much difference between AAA and the bigs?
