Respectable July: 4 starts, 15.1 IP, 2.40 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, 3 BBs, 16KsI assume the plan is for him to finish the year in low-A and just remain healthy
Talknats tweeted that Denaburg was scheduled to start on Saturday, but then said it only came from a source and wasn't official. Fredericksburg doesn't have a scheduled starter for that game.
Isn’t TalkNats wrong like 99 percent of the time?
He’s back! 2⅔ IP, 1H, 0R, 3BB, 1K yesterday.
Mason Denaburg got the start for the FredNats and went 2.2 scoreless innings before exiting the game at 42 pitches.Michael Kirian stranded a pair of runners for Denaburg in the third
Very much like a week ago, Mason Denaburg just did not look all that good, considering the rest (six days) and the workload (39IP, including last night). But perhaps more concerning was the lack of velocity.At first, it looked like the 2018 #1 pick was working on his offspeed stuff: tossing pitched in the mid-70s to low-80s. But when he reached back… it just wasn’t there, as Denaburg struggled to break 90mph and mostly hit around 87-89… with no command: He needed 52 pitches to get seven outs.
Placed on the developmental list
What does that mean?
Means he's still part of the minor league system but unassigned to any team. Maybe they needed his F-burg roster spot and decided he was shut down for the season; maybe they're moving him to another level but needed to get someone there a final start before moving that dude off the active.
