#41 Aaron King, LHP. A+: 1-2, 7.57, 27.1 IP, 16 BB, 30 K's, GO/AO= 0.34. Short Season: 0-0, 20.2 IP, 29 BB, 31 K's, GO/AO= 0.23.
Aaron King is a big, hard throwing LHP who had a pretty good season in 2009 at Augusta, albeit the significant control issues. He wasn't ready for the promotion to San Jose and got knocked around pretty good in 7 starts there. He landed in Salem-Keizer working out of the bullpen. He got better results, but the control issues just got worse. I'm not sure I've ever seen a more extreme flyball tendency which may have had something to do with the 5 dingers he gave up in SJ. He's been in the organization awhile, but was drafted out of JC ball and will still be just 22 next season. He has some time to figure things out, but clearly still has a long ways to go. Maybe he needs to spend more time with Steve Kline in Augusta who helped Dan Runzler get a leash on the ol' heater?
