Great news.

Now we can really see what this kid is made of. We should expect a few bumps in the road but it will be real exciting to see him pitch against better competition. Who knows....maybe he will rock AAA for a few months and contribute on the major league club when the rosters expand. That might be wishful thinking but in any event this is a good step for Clay.

Any news on when his first start for the PawSox will be?
