18 IP this year – 25 K (!) and 7 BB. And getting better every day.

by North Side Chicago Expatriate Giants Fan on Jun 12, 2008 3:32 PM PDT up reply actions

6 BB/9 in pro ball, 5 BB/9 in college

Lincecum, who also walks his share, is at 4 BB/9 in the pros, 6 in college.

I think that Morrow shows promise and is improving, but he’s got the patented Giants walk rate. Bumgarner thus far doesn’t—BB/9 under 2.

by wcw on Jun 12, 2008 4:22 PM PDT up reply actions

That of course is assuming Smoak is as good as people think he is. He’ll play I’m sure in Texas because of that Coors Field like ballpark. But there seemed to be some concerns about how his bat will play using wood, which is why he dropped to 11th.

Reynolds = EPIC FAIL. Especially for that ballpark.

That’s because his fastball is straight, and his other pitches are pretty average too.
