interesting....they let him get to 94 pitches...he pleaded to stay in, said he felt good.

earlier you said he needs shoulder surgery, yet they let him make 94 pitches, and he held the opponent to 2 runs on 5 hits. What kind of surgery is needed? Would that surgery put him out of action for a whole season?

he had a shoulder impingement coming out of Spring Training. Before that he was great in Spring Training. Went on the IL in late April.

My assessment, and I'm not an expert, is he needs to get the shoulder scoped. Cleaned up. I base this off his continued discomfort and inability to command his fastball while on the mound. His delivery with the fastball has been off from last year...including tonight. His velocity has fallen with the 4 seamer a good 2-3mph over his last 3 starts. He owes tonight to incredible command with his Slider, Curve and Change up early in the counts....and to the lack of discipline by Norfolk hitters. With the offspeed tonight he feasted on most of the RHB inside. It was incredible to watch.

Norfolk didn't have Beavers or Jackson in the lineup tonight either. But offspeed definitely looked smooth

Jesus Baez = not a good first game.
Duce or Kramer - Do you agree he looks pretty small?

what is he? 5'10"?

Listed at 5'9" but I wonder. He joins the many Lilliputians in the organization (many of whom hit very well).

Wait a minute. I don't understand your skepticism about the boy's height. Don't you remember all the stories during spring training about how each team was now accurately measuring each player on the roster to make sure that they had the correct height? There was quite a bit of discussion about how short some of the Cardinal players were shown to be after this new correct measurement process took place. Remember?

I just found a site with some ABS-heights for minor leaguers. It didn't have Jesus.

Those posts in ST were mostly about major leaguers. So I guess we wait for Jesus's ABS-height.

PS - Tink Hence actually gained two inches to 6'1". Masyn Winn gained an inch to 5'11"
