It's Keisler on Tuesday. They've already recalled him from Memphis.

After the whining session he had at the end of Spring Training about getting sent down, now's his chance to make good on his words.

Cronos, I think this deserves it's own thread, so I split it.

alright, so whats the scouting report on this guy?

I frankly know nothing about him, but he's 31, has made 17 career starts (and 51 career appearances) at the MLB level, and has had his nipples lit up every time.

I guess he's fine for an emergency start.... but that's about it for him.

Hawk should take his turn tonight for Memphis then. Would of liked to see him but he probably isnt ready yet. Dont know much about Keisler.

His era has fallen every year from 12 to 6 to 4.5.

Does this mean they are already planning on the DL for Carp?

Here are his ZIPS projections.

Code: Select all

Age   ERA W L  G GS INN   H  R ER HR BB  K
 31  5.25 5 8 33 16 120 134 77 70 16 51 65

Let's hope he can do a little better than that.
