Irish333 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2010 Hello all! I just read an article on Jerry on Madfriars.com. The short season Coach Greg Riddoch said that they gave Jerry the nickname, "Franchise". Apparently everyone gets a nickname. Jerry is improving everyday. I'll keep everyone posted as the season progresses. Irish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tmh8286 109 Report post Posted April 26, 2010 Here's a link to the web site of Jerry's team, the Tin Foil Hats!! JK - the Ft. Wayne TinCaps: "Official Site of the Fort Wayne TinCaps" Looks like Jerry is off to a great early season. He's started four games, has the second-most innings pitched on the team, and has one of the lowest WHIP stats (I had to look it up - walks plus hits per inning pitched) of the starters on the team. Way to go Jerry! You're making us proud! (Thanks SF for the link! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bogus Smith 34 Report post Posted August 10, 2010 Here is Jerry's stat line with the Tin Caps. You can probably come to your own conclusions once you read through them. Looks like it's been a challenging season for Jerry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dbl78 23 Report post Posted August 10, 2010 He made the all-star team, however, the stats indicate that he has struggled during July - I wonder if he is injured and is attempting to pitch anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish333 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2010 Well.....no injuries.... the Padres have a philosophy of reducing the number of innings pitched during July and then gradually build up the innings again in August and September. Jerry actually pitched very well. The shortstop and third basemen are very young players from the DR and they are growing into their positions. They committed more than 80 errors between the two of them. In the games that I attended, there were a few inning ending double play grounders that were played for only the sure out at first. He easily could have reached 12, 13 or 14 wins. There were a lot of no decisions. That's going to happen at this level. He was the starter at the All Star Game and recorded two strikeouts and eventually got the W as the East beat the West. I no longer have fingernails..... just knuckles! Can't wait for the winter to be over! Go Golden Eagles!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
