Jeffress Has Gas

by Buzz Bissinger on May 23, 2008 7:02 PM EDT

So Jeremy Jeffress is back playing ball again, and has been showcasing that 100 MPH fast ball yet again now in A ball. Although his numbers are pretty awful in his first two starts, he is completely blowing away a lot of the kids with his heater, and struck out 10 in 5 innings in his last start.

What's in store for this kid's future? Rehab? Super Closer? Future All Time Strike Out King?

what's your point?

is it now considered uncool to post on minor leaguers in what is supposed to be a blog for speculating on minor leaguers?

and people wonder why posting is going down—the cool kids here just love to give attitude.

updated scouting report?

Any news on the progress of his offspeed pitches, or is he just blowing away hitters?

possible alternate titles

Jeffres has a rocket of an arm

Jeffres throws gas

Jeffres throws heat

Jeffres has a cannon

the title is funny, but if we want to take this post seriously, like scooter suggests, then i am just throwing those alternates out there.

peace out

Lighten the Crap Up

My gosh people, this thread was meant to be funny and informative all at the same time. Some people DO have a sense of humor and its ok to give info while being amusing at the same time. And if someone wants to play off their joke, FINE!! Its not demeaning or mean.
I know I’m ranting but I’m tired of douchebaggery.

Now stepping off my horse:)
