He's pitching right now for Jax. Don't know if it's a spot start since A-bomb is gone or a callup, but he gave up 2 runs in the 1st inning.

Are there any all-control/no-strikeout flyball pitchers in the majors?
I can only think of GB pitchers.
If he could do something, like, 2.5 BB, 5.5 K/9 in the majors, he could be useful.
Just that with his FBs we're talking about a lot of HRs.
When you're 24 with a 0.9 HR/9 in Jupiter, you're gonna give up a lot of HRs.
oh shit i'm wrong
I thought Allison was servere-FB
I just looked up his splits and he's basicaly 1:1 GB:FB
Still a lot of FBs though and has a huge hr/9 in jupiter
let's say 1.2-1.3 HR/9 in MLB?
even with 1.3 HR/9 we're still talking about 4.70 ERA with the above BB/K.
But then again showing good control in Jupiter at the age of 24 isn't something amazing.
now is when we get to see if he can seriously be useful or not.

No he's at the game.
Nothing earth-shattering. They were very disappointed about the off-the field issues Allison had, he was a can't miss prospect at one time, but they're very proud of the fact that he's gotten his life back together.

Beinfest: "Guys like Stanton and Morrison just stand out when you watch a game, it won't be long before we see them in the big leagues."
--------------------
Beinfest: "Morrison will most likely compete for a starting job in the spring."
--------------------
Stanton RBI single, Morrison RBI groundout, Cousins goes boom 5-2 Suns.
--------------------
Beinfest: "AA is the proving ground, Dominguez will benefit greatly by this month in AA."
--------------------
Allison's final line: 5 IP 6 hits 2 Runs (both earned) 3 K's 1 BB

Hate to burst everyone's bubble but this sounds like just a spot start.
Allison packed up his Double-A-quality hotel room Wednesday afternoon and started the four-hour drive back to Jupiter, where he'll rejoin the Hammerheads.
Not sure why he's being sent back down. Jacksonville had a reliever called up when Thompson was traded which would still leave them a starter short. Hopefully, Jeff gets to return to Jax soon.Last edited by THE_REAL_MIBS; 08-06-2009, 11:07 AM.
