Sorry - I need to see them all in one place in case I do get a chance to listen to a game tomorrow.

McNutt's final line: 5IP 4H 1R 1ER 1BB 6K

 

I'm hoping he gets moved to Daytona soon.

22-year-old Coleman with a fairly typical line, 6 innings and 2 earned. He rarely flashes any extraordinary 10K/0BB lines.

 

Three concerns I've had about him have been:

1. Low K's

2. High HR's

3. Questionable velocity.

 

But the low-K's have improved lately. Over his first 5 starters, he had a total of 14 K's combined, in 32 innings. But in 4 of his last 5 starts, he's had 4 or 5 K's, typically in 6-inning outings. Still not excellent, but significantly better.

 

He's had strong groundball ratios, 1.04 GO/AO. That doesn't help that much if you're still a HR guy. But 6 HR in 62 PCL innings isn't bad. And if the walks stay long enough, his K rate may be just fine.

McNutt's final line: 5IP 4H 1R 1ER 1BB 6K

 

I'm hoping he gets moved to Daytona soon.

He has looked very good. I say send him to the pen where all top pitching prospects belong..
