Nah, makes sense. Go ahead and tear the elbow now, get TJS, be awesome when you return 11 months later

Well, I'm in agreement with most of that statement... then again, I would have sent him for surgery the second he signed.

Yeah, because common sense says to give kids TJ surgery, when they don't need it.

Surgery on a pitchers arm should always be the last ditch effort. Not precautionary.

He may or may not need TJ down the line. But its pretty obvious he does not need it right now, or there wouldn't be putting him on the mound.

I imagine he'll get several starts but probably less than 5 innings a start.

This guy, IMO, is our replacement for Jordan Zimmermann if he goes free agency

Pretty much agree with blue. Hell get a few starts, but will probably only.go 1 or 2 innings, maybe topping out at 3 in his last start.

If you have an hour to spare, here's a great interview about what went down with Lucas with his dad, Rick.  Really, really great, honest interview.  It starts an 1:38 in.  Check it out.

Nope.  The obsessing over his size was entertaining.

When will Lucas be making starts?

I think part of it is to start his arm conditioning as well.

Every team needs a team . . .

Just a quiet reminder that the prospect threads in particular are widely read outside of our small WNFF community.
