Quick look back at Thomas Pascanuās (ā26, AZ) relief outing from last Friday. FB worked 81-83 T84. Mixed in a downer breaker in the low 70s that produced some whiffs. Flashed a slightly harder slider at 75-76. Also a physical RH bat. Intriguing follow. #PGHS
This is pretty cool ā two HarbourCats pitchers, Quintin Torres-Costa (2014) and Adam McKillican @Killa_33 @Qtorres_costa playing on the same team in the Australia Winter League. Adelaide Giants @AdelaideGiants
Normal tweets will be back Friday, but Iām coming back just to say Gastonia just pitched their first no-hitter in franchise history. 5 no-hit innings from Roger Bernal in his debut as well as 4 combined perfect innings from Euclides Leyer, Quintin Torres-Costa, and Sam Bordner!
Former #Brewers LHP prospect Quintin Torres-Costa has the second highest strikeout rate in the Atlantic League with 13.6 K/9.
Appeared to be on the doorstep to MLB in 2018 before Tommy John surgery. Still just 27 years old, Iād imagine heāll get another shot at affiliated ball.
K%-BB% leaders:
Quintin Torres-Costa: 19.75%
Reilly Hovis: 15.13%
Jesus Balaguer: 14.29%
Marcus Walden: 13.77%
John Anderson: 11.11%
League average is 8.04%
Looking back on last year when baseball was paused, Quintin Torres-Costa said it reminded him, āDonāt take anything for granted.ā He shot slow-motion videos of his mechanics to stay sharp.
Brent Suter is the best. He was asked about the additions of Wong and JBJ, and this was his answer:
"They're energy-givers. You've heard me talk about being faucets as opposed to the drain. These guys are all faucets, pouring out energy, pouring out positivity."
@Qtorres_costa -- an inning, no hits and a K for the Brewers today. Watch for this former @HawaiiBaseball lefty at the MLB level this year! 2014 HarbourCats star.
What Devin Williams is doing is insane.
He has a 53.1 percent strikeout rate.
He's allowed one run. One.
The @Brewers reliever is in the mix this week in our Rookie of the Year watch ā¬ļø
