After starting the year with the P-Nats, Bill Bray is showing everyone why he's among the Nats top prospects. With Potomac, he struck out 18 in 12 and 2/3 innings, had three saves, allowed 3 earned runs, gave up just 8 hits, walked three giving him an ERA of 2.13 and a WHIP below 1.00. In Harrisburg, he was only there for 3 games, but struck 6 in 5 and 2/3 innings, but gave up 10 hits. So far with the Zephyrs, he's pitched in 3 games for 2 and 2/3 innings with 6 K's, including three in a perfect 9th yesterday to get the win.
Bill Bray is showing he has the right stuff and I'm sure he's aware his name in being mentioned in trade talks and knows because of Cordero's presence with the big club, that he's very likely doing to be dealt. Even while knowing all that, he continues to pitch well... Bill Bray is going to be traded to help the Nats get the pitching help they need.
So me thinks the Nats are going to get not just the bat they were looking for, but the pitching help they want as well...
What do you all think?
