got rocked tonight.

not really. Maybe you should check your facts before you post.

4IP 5H 3ER 2BB 5K

2 of the hits were broken bat singles and Betances unravelled after an umpire apparently missed a check swing call that would have ended his horrific second. 5K's in 4IP is very solid. He is certainly not a finished product and this outing certainly wasnt all that fantastic, but to say he got rocked when he gave up 1 more hit than IP is not being accurate. This is actually very similar to Kennedy's first start in AA.

6.75 ERA sucks homie.

I knew this would get this reaction out of you anyways.

am I that predictable?

And I know ERA is important, but it isnt everything, especially in a minor leaguer.

Yeah.

Well, at the very least its clear indication that Betances has regressed. I wonder if this is a problem of overestimating his talents at draft time or an organizational teaching deficiency.

very funny ORS.

BTW, got the win today.

5IP 3H 1ER 3BB 4K

Apparently threw some serious ched, but needs to harness his control a little.

kid has some serious stuff but is really struggling with command. 4.2IP 0ER 6K 6BB. Sounds like the stuff is there, but the mechanics have regressed. He's too young to write off, but his ETA can be pushed back a yr if he continues to struggle with his control.

He and Daniel Bard can play cards together on road trips.

(you know, when they run into each other on the road)

Dellin Betances was outdueled by Glenn Gibson, but that was the least of his worries on Sunday. Betances left after three innings complaining of elbow tightness. The Yankees prospect will have an examination on his elbow today. Gibson allowed one run in five innings to raise his ERA to 1.00.

seems like something has been wrong with him for awhile. I suspect we may have lost another kid to TJ. Better to happen now than when he is ready.
