Has anyone said anything about a Brett Jackson promotion?

[toonsterwu]

Chris Archer is mowing down Lakeland through 4. Casey Coleman had a solid game, CG, 7 ip, 2 h, 1 r, 8 K's, and a 7:4 GO/FO ratio.

Chris Archer is mowing down Lakeland through 4. Casey Coleman had a solid game, CG, 7 ip, 2 h, 1 r, 8 K's, and a 7:4 GO/FO ratio.

 

Only 2 hits he surrendered were the first 2 batters he faced.

[TruffleShuffle]

archer got dinged for 2 runs in the 5th inning, but has 9 K's and 0 BB's and the opposing team's BABIP is about .550. i'll take that.

[TruffleShuffle]

mixed bag from archer - he's done for the evening. 5.1 ip, 8 h, 4 r, 3 er, 0 bb, 10 k, 1 hr. the babip against was nearly .600.

 

brett jax has singled twice and stolen a base.

It's not like he's got great peripherals, he was pretty lucky to have that ERA entering today.

[TruffleShuffle]

are you suggesting that 17 walks in 25 innings is not that good?

He's sucked out of the pen, but his two outings as a starter have been halfway decent so far. I know, small sample size and all that, but it seems like the only success he's had in his career has been in a starting role.

Which makes sense. A starter has at least a decent chance of not letting the walks kill him but they are death to relievers unless they have marmolesque stuff. Dempster is a good example of a high walk, not always effective reliever turned into a good SP. It might also be that Smardj doesn't try to amp up his fastball as a starter and as a result has better control.

I can't wait for next year when he's in our rotation and Cashner is still our all-important right handed setup man.
