Re: Coming Soon: Justin Upton
[ QUOTE ]
web page He's in AA now. I predict a mid August MLB ETA. [/ QUOTE ] I'm a huge DBacks fan. But I don't expect him to make it up this year. His single A numbers were very good, but not otherworldly. He's going to have to adjust and improve as he moves up through AA and presumably, AAA. And I'm not sure the team has a place for him right now. Next year they can move out Eric Byrnes if Chris Young and Carlos Quentin start hitting.

I'm actually shocked they are doing as well as they are, given the horrible hitting. Who would have thought that bandaided pitching staff would start so well? Doug Davis makes me cringe when he pitches, he's like a guy running back and forth across a highway, every inning I expect a multi baserunner pileup.

Webb, Johnson, and Hernandez give the D'Backs a formidable front three and insure that they will be no worse than league average in pitching. The bullpen has a lot of live arms which gives them a chance at a solid bullpen. Coming into this year, I thought the pitching was the strength of the team, and I thought they'd be right where they are. This team will be in the thick of things come September, setting themselves up to be the NL favorite in 2008. And yes, I expect Justin Upton to be a part of that championship team!
