Giovanny Gallegos called up

Post by InvincibleCakeEater »

Excited to see what he has.

Came over in the Voit trade. Only 30 MLB IP, but in that small time posted good K rates and low BB rates. Stung by the longball. Been pretty lights out in the upper levels of the minors with a 1.99 ERA of 135 IP in AAA with good K/BB rates.

He walked it off on Saturday to get to the championship game. He closed out the big win last night to win a AAA Championship and then found out minutes later that he's getting the call to the majors? What an amazing past few days for that kid!!! Wow.

Hell of a WHIP in the minors. Hope it translates.

Yeah, I found out that he's 27 and been up with the Yankmees in 2017 and 2018 which does temper things a bit for me but it still is a fun story and a heck of a few days for the guy.
