Anyone have a scouting report? 

 

 

Why is this a big deal? He sucked that one in New York. He did good in Atlanta. So it's a crapshoot

 

 

He's a long term fixture in our rotation.  Very consistent minor league numbers throughout every stop

 

 

Start what? The game thread? Hey I'm down for whatever Admin thinks will bring the team some luck.

​Well he doesn't strike anyone out so he'll fit right in with this rotation

 

 

Urena is a right handed version of Brad Hand. The main difference is that he has an even worse last name and changeup. He is going to get hit REALLY hard. Hopefully they find some mitts. ASt this point, it doesn't really matter who you put in there, anyway.

​He doesn't? Ahh crap just what we need. Guy throws hard but can't generate the strikeout.

 

FWIW he had that one outing against the Mets that inflated the ERA, so relative small sample size. I am assuming there are going to try and get 5 innings out of him.

​You have no clue what you are talking about.

 

 

Urena looks more like a bullpen arm to me.

​Is that a Leo Nunez joke?

For those who actually know how prospects work.

 

 

Kind of a crazy stat:  Jose Urena has walked exactly 29 guys each of the last 4 years, even though his innings pitched increased each year.  From 2011 on: 72.2 IP, 138.1 IP, 149.2 IP, and 162 IP with 29 walks each year.  Whoever compared this guy to Hand has no idea what he is talking about.  Hand still can't throw strikes.

​Yeah mentioned that in my article. His IP total increased every year too. Remember when you watch the slider tonight that that pitch came from virtually nothing. He was always a good FB/CU guy but the slider was pretty much just a waste pitch. It's now his best pitch from what I see of him in AAA.

 

 

I hope he dominates.
