1984Echoes Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I think Faedo starts at AAA but ends up in Detroit's BP by mid-season June/July-ish... And dominates out of the BP... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best changeup: Garrett Hill, RHP, Tigers Hill is more about deception than power, an approach he has ridden to a 2.54 ERA in three pro seasons and a 1.98 mark with 21 strikeouts in 13 2/3 innings in the AFL. He consistently fools hitters with his changeup, which sits in the low 80s and combines fade and depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know little about minor league pitchers! I just know most of them fail. A few will probably be pretty good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Wentz is their most advanced pitching prospect at the moment, but I'm a little surprised at how highly he is regarded around here. I am not a prospect hound by any stretch and I am not saying people are wrong, but is his probability of success in the majors really that high? I've always regarded him as one of those guys Bill LaJoie was talking about when he said "you need 10 top pitching prospects to produce two good major leaguers".

Wentz was lights out when the showed up at Erie in 2019. It was only a handful of games but he dominated so that got people charged up. In his come back from TJ he was putting up good BA against but still hadn't gotten his walk rate back down where it needs to be as the season ended. But command is the usually the last thing that comes back, so we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious D Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 if the Tigers don't protect Hill, he'll be eligible for the Rule 5. I would think a team would take a flyer on him, especially based on his AFL performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
