i’m interested to see salmon in ST, since Kriv announced early that he’d have a good shot at making the team. He’s a little old, and not very highly ranked by BA, but his numbers are good.
The last 3 years in AA hes had a 3.62 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, with .33 HR/9. The last 2 years in AAA he’s gone 2.55/1.11/.61, with a healthy amount of k’s at both levels.
I doubt he’ll ever be a relief ace, but if someone could cheaply give us a 3.50 ERA for a few years, i’d take it.
I agree about Salmon, you have to wonder why he didn’t get a shot last year, rather than the “Reliever of the Week” that Krivsky seemed to constantly bring in.
