J.C. Sulbaran with a monster outing. Another young (21) prospect who has been around seemingly forever. His last nine starts:

49.1 IP 41 H 22 ER 4 HR 21 BB 67 K

Looking at it this way he would only be a college junior. If he keeps this up then next year he will be in AA ball which is an extremely high starting position for a pitcher drafted out of college, so in reality he's a couple of years ahead of schedule.

This is one of the great phenomenon in drafting High School players. Soto, Lotzkar, and of course Mesoraco are other examples of guys who are playing at higher levels given their age than they would be had they of been drafted after college, despite struggling earlier in their professional careers.

Thanks Camisa. I long for the days when we had these box score tallies at the end of every daily minor league thread.

I'll try to do it more often. It's a nice break from homework. I might even throw in some satire.
