And having three more on the cusp of returning there is no more room at the Inn.<br />Cashman should be talking like a Dutch Uncle to Lindgren letting him know to keep going as he is and he will be up at the first chance.<br />He is ready, but everyone can work on something right (as you said), refining his pitches will only help him in the Show.<br />Of course when one uses only there or four of the pitchers in the pen, the other guys get hit like a red headed half-wit.Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-65842411322815353402015-05-11T15:21:41.613-04:002015-05-11T15:21:41.613-04:00Of course no one is perfect and everyone has somet...Of course no one is perfect and everyone has something to work on, especially at 22 (i think), but Lindgren should be figuring these things out in the 6th and 7th innings in the Bronx, not in Scranton. When you struggle with consistency, command, etc. you figure it out in AAA. When you're not quite ready to be the team's closer but you're getting bored Bull Durham style in the minors you figure it out in lesser pressure packed situations.

Granted, Jacob Lindgren is doing well, better than well but we need a place for those coming back from injury.<br />When it is time for him, he will be ready and hit the road running. Every pitcher has something to work on and refine, better to get it right before facing the best of the best.Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-37733006593489420232015-05-10T15:00:19.858-04:002015-05-10T15:00:19.858-04:00Exactly Burch.

Let's face it fans Mr. Lindgren could use a bit more work down on the farm, Why be in such a rush to get him up here, he still needs to harness his stuff a little bit more.<br />JL and Severino will be a great addition to this club but, I would rather wait until July or so.<br /><br />I sorta blasted C.C. a bit, I think I was expecting too much of him, er unless he can hit better than Tex. He has had a game or two where he lost the game because of run support not his pitching per say!Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.com
