Did Surkamp have shitty control in the minors?

No. He actually has an excellent wHIP.

He's probably amped as hell

He's used to people swinging way out of the zone

It's his first ML start! cut the kid some slack!!!

2.5 BB per 9 rate. Pretty good i think. FWIW, he had a much better SO/BB ratio than did Matt Cain in the minors (though he was 4 years older).

Even with the K, Surkamp looks like he knows what he's doing with a bat.

Thanks for the info. Rep.

I'm not ripping the kid. Just trying to figure out how much of his early struggles are because of rookie jitters...

Would have been a phenomenal play? WTF are you talking about Kruk?
