Tracey pitched in Winston Salem last year and was there ace. This season he is in Birmingham and is rated #5 by FutureSox.com.

 

Tracey picked up his first AA win on tax day (April 15, 05). He pitched excellent and was hitting 94 on the gun (courtsey of BhamBarons). He's got an awesome arm, I deem it a rubber arm and throws a good slider as well.

 

Really turned into a top notch prospect last year and he a shot with a good season to pretty much assure him as the #2 pitching prospect in the organization.

 

Tracey was claimed off waivers by Baltimore March 23, 2007

Tracey Threw 6 Innings of 1 run ball this Morning with 7 K's. Sean Hit 98 on the gun today

Holy cripes...98 dang. The best thing about Sean is his rubber arm and mentality. He has absolutely zero fear of pitching inside.

What I liked about his outing was in the 2nd he had a runner on 3rd one out and powerful hitter up at bat and he kept creaping in until he was all over the plate he used the 0-2 pitch to knock him down and then he hit 98 with a high and away fastball for a swinging strike 3 Loved it.

Tracey is still kicking butt and has the best righty arm in the minors (now that Jenks was promoted).

The 24 year old has pitched well in his first season with AA Birmingham going 10-3 with a 3.46 ERA while limiting opponents to 90 hits in 104 innings.

I would say that he is pitching well with those numbers.

Sean carried a no hitter into the 6th in last night's game. 7IP, 3H, 3BB's, 4K's. ERA down to 3.42 now.

I hope Sean does well after the Sox sent back down during the Texas series.
