Columbus Clippers

Whatever happened to Carlos Carrasco this year prior to his trade from the Phillies organization to the Indians is baffling. Since he has been in Columbus, the man has won all four of his starts including yesterday's game at Huntington Park. If he can channel whatever he has been doing since his arrival into some consistency, the Tribe may have quite a find on their hands. Yesterday, he mixed a fastball that topped out at around 94 mph with a devastating change-up that had the Indianapolis Indians hitters laughably way out in front of a ball that dipped down to 78 mph. Carrasco did this without altering his delivery in any perceivable way. The performance was a pitching clinic that he can hopefully carry on to the big league level.
