A lot of rookie pitchers are great the first time around the League (2005: Hernandez, Duke etc...). Advantage on first encounters is decidely with the pitcher. But scouts and hitters catch-up very quickly. If he sticks, he'll go through a period where he gets clobbered and then he'll find his level. But he has great long-term potential.

Although brief, he has never been clobbered in his pro career.

I know that his hand was clobbered. He is a skinny little dude. He's got a hot girlfriend though... :-°

I lost the Come Hamels lottery today. Team ahead of me was named "Dan's Phillies". I had no chance.

I'll take any odds on him getting his clock cleaned quite handily a few times before year is over. He's a fine prospect. No question. I don't care how good he did in Little League -- MLB is a different universe,.[/quote]
