ST. STEVEN 4,548 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 From KlawChat today: (regarding Deivi's start yesterday) "I'll write up the start soon, but his changeup was above average for me." 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DannyMcPot 1,594 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Man I love this kid. Looks like a ten year vet in this video. Absolutely drool-worthy as a Yankee fan. The command of that curve 🤤 The explosive fastball that touches 96-97. And the mound presence of a tiny 19 year old Pedro. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cizastro 460 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 I regret not taking this kid in my MILB draft earlier this year. I wanted to take him, but figured he wasn't on anyone's radar in my league so I opted to go Graterol in hopes that I could snag this guy next season. I hope I don't end up regretting that.

DannyMcPot 1,594 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 5IP, 3ER, 2BB, 9K in his third start throwing 50 of his 77 pitches for strikes. After today's start he owns a goofy 18.6 K/9 in AA ball all before turning 20 years old. What I like more is that the walks have decreased with each consecutive start. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nodnarbnap 37 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Officially keeping my eye out for this one, that Yankees starting staff needs help, especially if Severino in out for the year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirty Little Birdie 1,147 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 does anyone honestly believe this kid has a chance to make starts for the Yankees this year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stranger things have happened, but I wouldn't think so at this point. Pushing him into a pennant chasing environment with only a handful or so starts at AA wouldn't seem to be overly smart. I think it would be more likely that the Yanks pursue Keuchel after the compensation pick is no longer tied to him and/or look for a veteran arm at the trade deadline for a playoff push rather than call up Garcia to the bigs. Just my two cents for what it's worth. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DannyMcPot 1,594 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 If Deivi starts mixing in a good slider and his change up shows more consistency, he could be absolutely deadly. With his last start that gives him 32K in 20 innings with a 2.62 xFIP in AA. Walks have been an issue but they have decreased in every start he's made. His last start was also his longest at 6 innings while inducing 17 swinging strikes. Oh, and happy 20th birthday Deivi 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

brockpapersizer 12,284 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 While I love Deivi, I think he'd probably struggle for a bit if he came up this soon. Would have to be a desperation play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MathieuVirtuoso 138 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 What's the injury risk on a cat like this? Very small frame and violent delivery (at least from the videos I've seen). I LOVE LOVE LOVE his stuff though. Fastball/Curve combo is gonna be nasty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
