Kyle Drabek update

[o2cui2i]

Good stuff, still high hopes for a guy with that kind of stuff, at the very least a player to follow in the minors, we don't seem to have to many of those at the moment.

 

if they can get a strike throwing Drabek back, he would at least be a good long man in the pen to start.

 

if both Drabek and Hutch come back and pitch well, the jays can perhaps trade JJ at the deadline and bring in some more pieces for a run and next year.

This is my ideal world. However, it wouldn't to get Hutch/Drabek some AAA polish. I think a legit AAA stadium/league could do wonders for Drabek's confidence, no more Vegas ********.

they would have time to give them a couple weeks, but not more, if they have to make a JJ trade.

I hope he hasn't lost any velocity.

 

For Drabek less is more. Less velo, more chance to throw strikes.

I've got Drabek stashed on my DL in Fantasy Challenge. He has great stuff, and he may just be a pitcher who takes time to figure and iron things out. Though yeah, not expecting much from him. Can't wait for Hutch to return though!

Possibly we may be in presence of the new Ryan Vogelsong; peak production at high age.

When he comes back it will be awesome, more pitching depth!

 

Hopefully JJ can come back strong after the DL stint so we can trade him

He was so frustrating to watch last year. If he cannot throw strikes he will be another Jeremy Jeffress

I think he's going to solve his control problems in the coming years, not yet though. Still, he's a nice 6th starter to have

[Caper]

Is it possible that the first TJS wasn't done properly and effected his control?

I doubt it, his first TJS was out of high school and his walks increased more each season it seems

[Sparky12]

I'm definetly looking forward to getting hutch back over Drabek, but with that said to have them both back and starting in AAA is great depth to have, both potentially good #4/5 guys in the rotation if pitching well,

They just need *somebody* to pan out. Sure, perhaps this organization is just poor at developing their players to be successful at the major league level, but surely somebody can slip through the cracks and become a good player despite that.

At least, it'd be tight, a deadline thing.

That's a generalization

And off the ledge I jump.

[jolerud]

I think Drabek makes it as a 5th starter

Doug or Kyle?

Doug stands a better chance.
