Price called up 

Post#1 » by craig01 » Sat May 23, 2009 7:29 pm

David Price was called up from Durham AAA.

His performance was spotty overall, had command issues and was rocked a few times.

He pitched well recently though.

He'll start Monday.

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

To add to this, Kazmir is on the 15 day DL along with Percival.

Percival is likely to be offered a rehab assignment when he comes off the DL.

It's doubtful he'll take it though and probably will retire.

Lets go David Price. Sad to see Kazmir and Percival on DL though.

Percy is likely done in baseball, and Kazmir's "injury" I believe is just to give him time to get his mechanics back. (The groin injury isn't likely what they are saying it is).

well price looked pretty good just the bad thing is that he pitched 100 pitches in three innings.

The home plate ump didn't help, but Price lacked command of his fastball.

He'll be fine down the road, but I am not convinced he's ready to start yet.

Looks like it might get rocky for him.......
