Today pitchers and catchers reported to camp. Making his triumphant return is none other than Joe Ceglia. He is looking to make an impact and be a Trevor Hoffman project of sorts. By that I mean a former position player who played a hot corner (3rd base) but now is looking to use his arm strength to strike out batters and get some key outs. There are few other pitching prospects in our system but he wants to give it a go and be the ace of the staff. He was made a few relief appearances before and the numbers do not lie. Below is his stat line
The numbers do not lie. Breaking down his performance only tells us that he is a work horse who appears in a lot of games but also holds runners on and gives up very few runs. Scouts as well as executives are drooling over the potential that he has for the upcoming season. After seeing him pitch I and the General Manager Elmer Sonco decided to sign Joe Ceglia to a 5 year 60 million dollar contract. Joe has been training hard in the off season and watching many hours of slow pitch softball videos to get his form right for the 2011 season. Best of luck this season to you Joe as you take the mound and lead us to the land of victory.
