Lefty Relievers

Francisely Bueno. I know he's been really bad as of late, but I had no idea how bad. In 4 of his last 6 games, he gave up 2 runs per outing, averaging less than 1 inning over those 4 games (3.2 innings total). That's awful. I hope he can get back on track to where he was in mid season.

On to the next lefty, you say?

Scott Downs(yndrome)....since coming off the DL with his broken vajajay. He's pitched in two games, 1 inning total, surrendered 3 hits, 1 ER and 1 BB.

Yeah, we could really use an effective lefty in the pen. So, Who next?

Well, the only guy left who's left is Brandon Finnegan. It would be a fantastic boost in the arm if this kid could be a lefty specialist, for the balance of the month, so we could punt Downs the **** out of town. Finnegan, at NWA, was tough against lefties. No ER's, .111 BA and a 0.56 WHIP. At Wilmington, he was even better. No ER's, no hits, 1 BB and a 0.21 WHIP.

It's limited action in the Minors, but it's all pretty positive. I'd love to see this kid on the mound tonight, especially against lefties, if the opportunity presents itself.
