Andrew’s night is done, and it wasn’t pretty. It started out well enough, striking out 2 men in the first inning. He rode along smoothly through the next two frames, giving up only a triple to Rome’s left fielder L.V. Ware, who scored on a sac fly. But then the wheels came off in the 4th. 2 wild pitches, 2 walks, Double, fielding errors by Brackman and Lassiter, 4 runs scored. Tack on another run in the 5th, and his final line isn’t pretty.
IP-5.0 H-5 R-6 ER-6 BB-3 SO-5 ERA-10.80
This is to be expected, he hasn’t pitched much and is still working his way back from Tommy John. This is a continuation of what he did in the Hawaiian winter league, so if you were looking for a step forward, you didn’t get one tonight.

Just let him get the innings in and develop arm strength.Doesn’t sound like he was getting bombed.
I agree if he makes the club at 24-25 and is ready I would be very pleased. I dont think Randy Johnson was in the big leagues until 25/26-y/o so I say let him polish his stuff and mechanics
