Most Insane Start to a Minor League Season ever???

topprospectalert · Apr 14, 2011

Former Team USA Alum Shawn Tolleson who is now the closer at Low-A Great Lakes has faced 10 hitters this year.....AND STRUCK THEM ALL OUT :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: He's got 4 saves in the process. Talk about an insane start.

I have an embarrassingly large Tolleson USA Junior National collection.

For those who don't remember...it was Tolleson, not Kershaw, that went into their senior year as the top arm in Texas...then he met Tommy John surgery and ended up at Baylor.

Good for him.

Haha, me too. Good thing I was drawn also to Kershaw.

The stats beg to differ - he's also given up 2 hits and a BB.

Maybe he meant all 10 outs have been K's...

Okay, as a fan of his...I'm going to keep this running until he totally derails.

G - 6

SV - 6
H - 3
BB - 4
K - 15

It's a great price no doubt, and probably less than what "prospects" who are no longer in affiliated ball will get.

Potential steal? Sure, but unless he turns into a starter or fast tracks to LA. Either way, it's tough to get hurt on that.

Limited upside...but virtually no downside at that price also. Probably a better find if you want to buy and hold for your own PC.
