After his first start, Pierce has put up 17.1 IP, 3 ER, 18 H, 21 K, 6BB

His first start included some questionable defense too. He didn't pitch nearly as bad as his line indicated.

Vogelbach with a walk-off single.

Man, we've been sure getting a lot of good pitching lately. Johnson, Wells, Cates, Hendricks, Feldman.... Some pretty positive developments.

assuming pierce keeps it up, when does he get moved up?

Early summer - June or July.

I'm forgetting, but what kind of injury did Trey Martin sustain and how long is he out? Dunston appears to be pouting a bit on Twitter, maybe about getting passed up for a promotion.

Maybe he just means he needs to stop thinking about it because he has no control over it.

Well said, Zen Master.

I'm wondering if Dunston has really improved enough to get sent to KC. They sent him to Boise to start last year and he really struggled.

To all teams have this type of thing, or just us? The past few years we've had Carpenter, Sappelt, Stewart, and now Dunston publically gripe about not being promoted.

Did JaviError Baez just have a day off, or was he put in timeout too?

I'd prefer we not know.
