How About a Henry Owen Thread?

[Theoldmole]

Only one inning, but the kid looks good.

[Guest Hillbilly]

tell me more. I gots to know.

[Guest Hillbilly]

I found many nice details in the IGT. Seems like the only highlight of an otherwise shitty game for the Mets. Maybe we'll get some nice pitching from our other call ups today.

Hell, he looked great.
Rookie pitchers who look that good are usually pitching against the Mets.

[Frayed Knot]

He looked fine but let's not go overboard yet.

Struck out batter #1 with some nice high heat in the 96 range.
#2 hit a screamer but directly at Marrero in LF, then got #3 on a grounder to SS.

It would be nice to see him get a breaking ball within sniffing distance of the plate. Nothing even close last night and he won't get away with that forever, not at this level anyway.

I cant wait to see this kid throw.
Not today tho-
cuz Im hoping for two complete game shutouts from Maine and Pelfry.

[The Big O]

Welcome to the big leagues, kid -- where rooks don't get no respect, even in their own thread titles.

[Guest martin]

i thought mark pelfrey and henry owen both showed impressive stuff saturday.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Owens looked pretty good in 2 appearences but I'm afraid he's going to faceplant falling off the mound the way he throws.
