maxjusttyped 2,059 Posted September 8, 2021 I should have mentioned Engel is leading off for Charlotte tonight (playing RF) and is 0-2 with a K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Timmy U 663 Posted September 8, 2021 Emilio Vargas is throwing well again. Is he a possibility for a spot start? It worked when they tried something similar with Jose Quintana many years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It worked when they tried something similar with Jose Quintana many years ago. I was into him when he was a prospect years ago on the DBacks. There seems to be a lot of promising stuff happening in the Birmingham rotation this year. I'd be curious to know if he's unlocked something this year. If Mike Wright is the top depth guy/emergency starter after Lambert, why not Vargas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmags 8,232 Posted September 8, 2021 Carlos Perez has gotten en fuego again, I couldn't tell if he was just super quiet or if he was injured for a while, seemed like he wasn't in box score for a bit. Really wish either of the bham catchers could have got more of a sniff of Charlotte than Nate Nolan but this really is like such a nice year out of Perez. And the only reason I short shrift to Fernandez is just not knowing anything about his defense and his journeyman status. But seriously, my goodness. Carlos Perez, let's review 24 years old Highest slugging of his career...in birmingham (11 HRs) Only a 10% K rate a 6% walk rate Thrown out 42% of runners 3 passed balls in 678 innings caught .264/.317/.410 are we sure this guy isn't better than zevala? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
