Over his first 5 appearances (7 innings), he’s only let up a single hit and has struck out 11 to only 2 walks.

In 5.1 innings, he has a 21.94 ERA, 10 walks, and hit 4 batters (3 tonight). That is some wild control problems.

Nice comeback start. He’s looking awfully good.

If he can get better control, he seems unstoppable. That's his only flaw as far as I'm concerned. He's been on a beastmode run for a while now.

Control was great tonight, with only two walks (both back-to-back, and a mound visit righted the ship) and a hit-by-pitch. FB was up to 96 repeatedly, and the slider/curve combo was a knockout. Change wasn't bad either. He good.

That promotion seemed weird to me, although it’s not like there were a ton of deserving candidates

Oh well, I imagine he’s going back down for Feltman soon enough

He hasn’t skipped a beat since moving up. Also, 4 more hits for Duran

Strikeouts more manageable at Portland at around 25% and has hit .462 his last 10 games. Go Mikey go...
