    Bruce Zimmerman has 6 Ks in two innings so far. Outside of one brutal outing, he’s been really good so far. Think he’s also 23 though.

    The unknown prospect gets another mention. Is he going to be our Clouse this year.

    I can't believe we picked that joker third overall. We had to watch so many losses and Anderson was the reward.

    Lewis, Groome, Pint, and Puk haven’t done anything either. Only Senzel was the one I really wanted.

    Anderson was good last season. Probably a little early to write him off, but whatever

    probably more worried about arm trouble over being a bust. He started strong, but if I remember had some troubles mid to late year.

    This season, the walks are awful, but k9 is 12.5 (13 ip 18 k). I think he will be fine

    That’s sort of been the book on him: good k-rate and stuff, bad bb-rate and control.

    I think its a little early to be worrying about walk rates as well.

    control/command was never really a concern from people watching him, even after last season.

    Wild how quick people are ready to dump on teenagers. Seems the Braves are taking it real slow with him being a northeast pitcher. I don't expect him to really hit his groove until next season.

    It is ok to be concerned about a prospect. He is a one trick pony right now. If you had to pick if he would make it or not.. I would say no based on most recent data.

    Pointing out where they’ve struggled is hardly “dumping on” guys.
