FZ seems pretty unfazed by the lockout. Since the lockout only applies at the MLB level, FZ is free to Churn on and that's pretty much what he does anyway. The Churn swept up 3 new pitchers on minor league deals. Let's take a look and see who they are:
Jon Duplantier RHP. DOB: 7/11/1994. 6'4", 229 lbs.
Minors: 1-0, 7.88, 8 IP, 5 BB, 5 K's.
MLB: 0-3, 13.15, 13 IP, 8 BB, 12 K's.
Duplantier is the best known of the three signings. He is a former 3'rd round draft pick out of Rice by the D'Backs in 2016. By 2018 he looked like a future star but then a series of injuries derailed his career. Can he be another FZ reclamation special?
Gray Fenter RHP. DOB: 1/15/1996. 6'0", 200 lbs.
AA: 6-4, 5.47, 77.1 IP, 48 BB, 86 K.
If you look at terrible teams who lead MLB in giving up on players who blossom for other teams, the Orioles are definitely in the discussion. Fenter is another Orioles castoff who obviously needs to improve his walk rate. Can Giants coaches help him do that?
Mauricio Llovera RHP. DOB: 4/17/1996. 5'11", 224 lbs.
AAA: 2-2, 3.46, 52 IP, 24 BB, 48 K.
MLB: 1-0, 9.45, 6.2 IP, 4 BB, 7 K.
Previously in Phillies organization. That's all I've got.
