Carlos Rivero: A case study in signing international talent
I’ve been meaning to write up an article on Carlos Rivero, but more specifically, an article about the risk of signing 16 year old free agents out of Latin America, and how their developmental time frame is different from US born prospects subject to the draft. And with Rivero’s solid May, I thought now would be a good time to finally write this piece, because I think it will cover a number of interesting concepts. Well, you can be the judge of that. Anyway, let’s get after it.

Around the System–Relievers
A look at the relief corps around the system, with plenty to be excited about. Stats are through Tuesday May 24, 2011.
Lehigh Valley
Mike Zagurski, 28, 12 games, 1-0 with a 2.19 ERA; 7 saves, 12.1 IP 9H 7BB 20K; 1.29 WHIP; .220 opp. avg., .273 vs. RH, .200 vs. LH; .091 with RISP. Zagurski has thrown very well, although it hasn’t transferred in his limited time called up to Philly. Needs to hone the control a bit.
Jason Grilli, 34 Has been on the DL with back issues for the past week plus. 15 games, 2-0 with a 1.00 ERA; 18IP 16H 7BB 22K; 1.46 GO/AO; .232 opp. avg., .259 vs. LH, .214 vs. RH, .045 with RISP. Grilli may have been on the verge of a callup with the Phils when their injuries were mounting when he suffered one of his own. He has thrown extremely well all year.
Michael Schwimer, 25, 16 games, 2-0 with a 2.10 ERA; 1 save; 25.2 IP 20H 13BB 35K; 0.62 GO/AO; .208 opp. avg., 1.28 WHIP; .333 vs. LH, .143 vs. RH, .156 with RISP. Schwimer started off a bit slow, but has been near unhittable as of late. His command has been excellent. Continue reading Around the System–Relievers
