Thoughts On The Promotion Of Carlos Martinez

As most of you know, St. Louis Cardinals prospect Carlos Martinez was promoted from Low-A Quad Cities to High-A Palm Beach this week. His first start yesterday went well: six innings, four hits, two runs, four walks, seven strikeouts. The strikeouts are great to see, the walks not so much, though command wobbles are to be expected from a 19-year-old power pitcher.
