I keep seeing people putting Clifton in the "untouchables" list in a trade.. Does he really have that high of potential? Never heard of him until recently

[Transmogrified Tiger]

If someone is putting Clifton on an untouchables list, you should not listen to that person.

[sneakypower]

maybe they mean that he's cleaning out the latrines

Casey Bloomquist continues to be interesting, 3.1 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 5/0 K/BB in relief of Steele. Now at 37.2 IP, 37 H, 31/4 K/BB, 3 HR since being stretched out a bit.
