SP Trevor Bauer - Indians

[Bensharp]

Trevor was drafted by the Diamondbacks 3rd overall in the 2011 draft after he went 13-2 with a 1.25 ERA in his Junior year at UCLA. Last year he went 1-2 in 7 starts(wasn't that impressive). However, Trevor dominated in Spring Training and has shown signs of being the future ace he is expected to be.

Trevor dominated in his first start for mobile, allowing no runs and only two hits in 5 innings as well as striking out seven. He was on a pitch count so he could have pitched longer.

How many pitches did he throw/was he supposed throw?

[Bensharp]

It was at 80 pitches, he went slightly over at 86. Good for a first start, the Dbacks are trying to keep his arm semi rested for later this year.

Do you expect them to lower the PC for his next start?

[Bensharp]

No, it should remain around the same, but I wouldn't know until after the game.

Trevor talking about his "nine" pitches

Well, that was something I didn't know. Really cool article, thanks for the link.

Yeah, I loved it. When I read it I decide I had to post it so I started this.

Trevor pitched 5 innings recording 11 K's and 4 walks while giving up no runs. He hit the century mark in only five innings due to command problems which Baur continues to have, but he dominated when he was in the strike zone. However Baur will need to improve his walk rate before being promoted.

Trevor had a bad outing allowing one run, five walks, and only two k's on Sunday. He also only pitched five innings again as his struggles with his command continues to limit his ability to pitch deep into games.
