April 19, 20169 yr Has Volstad changed anything or is this just a veteran AAAA pitcher being a veteran AAAA pitcher? Edited April 19, 20169 yr by scs787

He's doing what you want him to do - get better over time. Improved each start, just like Danish. And Brennan too.

April 19, 20169 yr Matt Davidson in 2 years and about a week and a half as a Charlotte Knight, has fanned 373 times. That is 4 more times than Joe DiMaggio fanned in 13 seasons as a Yankee.
April 19, 20169 yr Author QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 19, 2016 -> 12:59 PM) Matt Davidson in 2 years and about a week and a half as a Charlotte Knight, has fanned 373 times. That is 4 more times than Joe DiMaggio fanned in 13 seasons as a Yankee. Obviously it is very early, but his numbers in his first 11 games this year are strikingly similar to his last 2 years in Charlotte: 2014: .199/.283/.362, 30.4% K/PA, 9.1% BB/PA 2015: .203/.293/.375, 31.7% K/PA, 10.3% BB/PA 2016: .205/.255/.432, 38.3% K/PA, 6.4% BB/PA He's striking out more and walking less, but the overall results are quite similar. If he's still in this territory in May or June, it's time to accept he is who he is. Release him and let Delmonico or someone else from BHAM take over and get some AAA experience.

Improved each start, just like Danish. And Brennan too. I was clearly overreacting due to last nights sox game. I said that. He'll be fine I was just pissed off.

One of your colleagues/fellow Admin won't like this.
