Biggest issue is how hard is he throwing it, will he overthrow ahead in a count to make it dance a little more, how much strain does his motion put on the pitch, etc etc. If he can throw it now with low stress it shouldn't be so bad. He's already had multiple forearm issues, so I'm guessing his mechanics with it are not the best. 3 hours ago, JammerHammer21 said: Eff this in general, although I honestly don't care about minor league wins and losses.

THE DUKE Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Hunter Greene made his first spring training start. Sat 98-99, Hit 101, 2 IP, 4 K, 1 BB, 0 H. Slider was generating some buzz too. Kid is still 18 until August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DalCowboyzRule Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Cole Ragans needs TJS and Kyle Cody will be shut down for 3-4 weeks with elbow soreness. God dammit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many potential outcomes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hrubes20 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Brady Singer continues to drop like a rock. Arkansas worked him over last Friday and he was sitting 91-92. On the other hand, Jonathan India is continuing to see his stock rise for the UF squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

India has probably moved up from a third to second rounder for me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he was looked at as a 2B/3B anyway, but it would have been nice to see him stay at SS just a little bit longer to see if he could wind up passable there.

He played there a good bit while Liput was suspended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changeup is actually looking good. He's throwing 4 pitches right now. In his last start the fastball was 97-99, hit 101, slider was a little faster than it had been working 87-89, changeup was 89-91, and his curveball was around 80. The curveball was average, but he was still throwing it for strikes. The slider flashes plus and has been above average, the changeup above average with some still projecting it as a possible plus. Greene has been everything the Reds could have hoped so far this spring. The delivery is so easy too, which is the crazy thing. He isn't throwing max effort, and he's repeating his mechanics very well. He'll probably start in EST until the weather warms up a bit so they can limit his innings this year (probably in the 100-110 IP range) but he'll start out in Low A Dayton likely in early May.
