Great video of Rutledge getting the news (via prank of course):

I'm not too concerned about the result yesterday. That first inning was just flares and bleeders. That said, the dinger that knocked him out was a blast. 

I remembered him as having a really nice curve ball when he pitched in the AFL, but he seems to not throw it anymore. Maybe it's his slider, which seemed to have more movement to the side than the straight drop I remembered.

Let's not count yesterday's start as his arrival. Wait for next start.
