Gee, Montero, Mazzoni, Bowman...<br /><br />IMO, the superior pitching talent on this team are starters... even in the minorsMack Adehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09730548449011685243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-60182974825347519412015-03-06T10:16:25.600-05:002015-03-06T10:16:25.600-05:00Hey, Mack, Leathersich is pitching at sea level th...Hey, Mack, Leathersich is pitching at sea level this March...in a normal environment, he needs to step it up. <br /><br />If he does not make the Mets out of camp (likely he'll be farmed out), and struggles again in Vegas, stick him in Bingo again and see if he can put up totally killer #s there. His AA #'s have been very good, but I'm talking an Akeel Morris type stat year in AA, to show he can be the rare guy to ignore AAA failures when considering a call up.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-87042520303109735812015-03-06T10:11:38.594-05:002015-03-06T10:11:38.594-05:00I have no idea what to make of Leathersich.

His first game started off where he did not want to be - with 2 walks...but then got the next 3 outs, remarkably none by K. <br /><br />I still think, like you, he'll figure out success in major league baseball. I was encouraged by his improvement in splits vs. lefties. Most lefties have real trouble vs. righties - he has done real well vs. righties. So, he needs to finish solving his "lefties" issues, and if he can tighten up on the walks a bit, he should be ready.<br /><br />Nothing worse than watching a reliever walk the park...he needs to bring that down as well, not just fix his lefty issue.<br /><br />I had jack at #15 prospect, so we are close on that one.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.com
