Zink? They're thinking of bringing up Zink?

I would absolutely love to see that. The MLE of a AA or AAA knuckleball pitcher is his actual stat line: MLB batters are no better at hitting knuckleballs than AA or AAA batters. Zink's career MiLB ERA is 4.26--he might have MLB-caliber stuff, and we'll never know unless he gets a chance.
