His stuff certainly looks real. And he has a very good assortment of pitches that can make him into a starter later.

Him and matz have been bullpen heroes. They also are capable of covering a little bit of ground if starters departs early.

He has a great assortment of pitches and excellent command. There's no fools gold there. I just hope we don't wear him out.

17th round pick with underwhelming numbers in the minors.

But the Cards' brass saw something in his arm because they kinda rushed him to the show despite not producing desirable results.

-5 pitches
-high velocity
-can locate all of them

More like a diamond in the rough than foolsgood...

I read some chatter recently that they're considering making him a starter next year.

He has multiple pitches to be a starter but I could also see them having him take over as closer once helsely is gone. I hope they let him start though

A 3.3 H/9 rate coupled with a .65 WHIP is...something.

The eye test last night matched the numbers he's putting up. The sequences to Marsh and Stott and the stuff on his pitches were very impressive. If he can be right-handed Andrew Miller in his prime, keep him in that role.

ERAs and WHIPs coming through the system -

AAA - 5.71 / 1.617
AA - 6.28 / 1.738
A+ - 6.30 / 1.833

Don’t know what happened, but hope it continues.
