Around SBN: MLB Trade Rumors: Edwin Jackson to the White Sox, DC next?

David Price wins his first pro start

He pitched five innings, allowing 3 hits, no runs, and 1 walk (to the second batter he faced) while striking out 4.  Clearwater hit 12 balls in play off Price; 9 were on the ground.  The lefty threw 49 of 73 pitches for strikes.  His pitch count might have been limited because of a 90-minute rain delay before the start of the game.

Star-divide

I haven't been able to find any video of his performance, but according to the news article his fastball sat in the mid-90s, hitting 98 on the pitch he used to induce a double play in the first.  He benefited from that DP as well as a caught stealing -- he only faced 17 hitters in his 5 innings.

yay

glad to see him come back, i know the rays are conservative with pitchers but i think he may have to try the next level up. where do you guys see him settling in this year for most of the season? High A or Double A

If the Rays are still contending

in August, I wouldn’t be shocked to see him on the big league club. He’s ready now. Just needs to stay healthy and get his arm stretched out.
