Will Bednar is having a terrific August – his best month of the year, maybe the best of his career – has he found the secret sauce?
ReplyDeleteHe was R5 last year (or this year?), do you think he could be taken?
Would the Giants care?
Does Jacob Bresnahan look like a steal?
ReplyDeleteAlex Who?
Bresnahan is interesting, for sure. At age 20 he is age appropriate for A ball. I saw him early in the season and wasn't that impressed but he put up progressively better numbers as the season progressed. He's got the height and frame to add strength and turn into a serious pitching prospect over the next two seasons. Pretty good return for a older, oft-injured veteran.
DeleteI've become pretty interested in this kid Bresnahan too. He was a HS pick, but in the 14th rd so there's must have been a surplus signing bonus to pull him away from college.
DeleteBut take a look at some of three basic splits and her becomes pretty interesting pretty quick: Despite checkered early MiLB results, his Hits/9inn is super low at 6.2, translating to 126 hits over 163 innings. In 2025 he's sporting a K/BB > 2.75 and that tracks with the test of his career, even including his rough transition to SJ after the trade with Cleveland to land him.
I don't know really what he's throwing, haven't checked the reports yet, but he was only 19 y.o. to start this season and he only seems to be getting better with time. Excited about the kid.
