Rockies Flamethrower on Waivers
Per Mike Hindman @ DMagazine's Inside Corner
via mlb.mlb.com
Evan’s buddy Tracy Ringolsby reports that the Rockies have placed flamethrowing right-handed reliever Juan Morillo on waivers.
I would not be the least bit surprised if Morillo ends up in the Rangers system. The 25 year old can bring triple-digit cheese and I’ve seen him deal 92 mph sliders (while sitting next to one of the Rangers pro scouts who was basically giddy at what he was seeing).
Somehow, his results have never remotely reflected his physical ability, but given the club’s need to find a power RH setup man to replace Jack Benoit, I can see Texas taking a flyer on Morillo.
Lights up the radar but has some control problems. He may be worth a look if the Rangers can claim him.

Looking at his minor league stats, it seems like the control problems were mostly just this past year
Judging by his K/BB rates… last year in Colorado Springs (AAA) the K/BB was 0.98, when every year before that (except in rookie ball) it was always 1.5 or better, and 2.29 between AA and AAA in 2007. He still gave up less than a hit per inning. Unless his control has fallen off a cliff in 2009, which I can’t find any stats to find out, he’d probably be one of our better relievers right out of the box.
id still love to have him in the bullpen
whats the worst case? hes dropped later in the year?
best case? he sticks as a juan cruz-lite
whats one reason to not take the chance?
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.
Who do you drop to make room for him?
It would have to be either Rupe or Feldman, I suspect.

Are they going to be about the same kind of pitcher?
Morillo has less than 10 major league innings, and walked more guys than he struck out in AAA last year.
I have a hard time sitting here and saying that Morillo = Rupe in terms of current quality.
by Adam J. Morris on Apr 17, 2009 12:10 PM CDT up reply actions
How long do you think Rupe
is really going to last in this bullpen, and by most arguments he could have already been sent to waivers instead of optioning Madrigal. I say we don’t lose anything with this move. Perhaps Maddux can work with him to help improve his command, or perhaps he doesn’t have ‘it’ and we end up releasing him to bring up Diamond or Moscoso. I’m ok with it either way.
The "Fire Wash Watch" is on. I say he's gone by April 26th.
Rupe more than doubled his innings total from 2007 to 2008
I’m wondering if that’s having an effect on him now… but then again, he’s also pitched 158.2 innings in a season before.
x
I say we don’t lose anything with this move.
We lose something if Morillo is worse than Rupe, which I think is a distinct possibility.
Perhaps Maddux can work with him to help improve his command,
This seems to much like the “perhaps Rudy can work with him” argument that is offered for all the scrub hitters that people suggest bringing in.
I’m not going to jump up and down and throw a fit if they drop Rupe to make room for Morillo. But I don’t see that it is a slam-dunk move like others suggest, and I certainly question whether he’s as good as Rupe right now.
by Adam J. Morris on Apr 17, 2009 12:35 PM CDT up reply actions
Is Rupe a piece that we can replace in the off season
if it fails? Is he a piece that might clear waivers if we outright him?
What do voluntary mean?
Then
it is basically a low risk maneuver.
I honestly don’t think much would come of it, but it is a tempting thing to try because I think we are very close to knowing what Rupe is.
Morillo could be much more, but probably won’t be. And if he comes in and stinks it up we can always DFA him later to bring in the reclamation project that is Nippert when he’s ready.
What do voluntary mean?
My main point
was the fact that we lose nothing in the fact that Rupe is probably going to be DFA-ed pretty soon anyway to make room whenever anybody else is available to be called up, so this move makes sense. It is a risk, and risk worth taking.
The "Fire Wash Watch" is on. I say he's gone by April 26th.
the "perhaps Rudy can..." argument
IS an argument because of the horrible batters he’s been able to help. Didn’t Andrew Jones get walked intentionally the other day?
If the kid is throwing in the triple digits and is ONLY 25, he should be tabbed ASAP. You never know when a pitcher is going to put everything together. Hell, Cliff Lee was horrible until he turned 30. I don’t understand why you’d throw away that kind of talent.
If he can figure out his location, he’s a potential closer with a 100+ FB and a 90mph slider. On his BEST day, Rupe will NEVER come close to offering that kind of potential.
Agree
Triple digits are triple digits. Those kind of players are going to get chances continually from SOMEBODY.
Look at Daniel Cabrera: throws really really hard, has no idea where it’s going. Still getting chances, because if he can ever find his control, watch out.
Keith Law: (1:45 PM ET ) I think Michael Young should shut his mouth and move to third base.
What horrible hitters has Rudy fixed?
by Adam J. Morris on Apr 17, 2009 4:41 PM CDT up reply actions
The ones
he normally gets credit for are Dellucci, GMJ, DeRosa,etc..
I would say his results with hitters seems to be much better than our pitching coaches record with pitchers. If we had a similar track record with pitching, we’d probably be favored to win the West.

Initial indications are positive
But let’s see a bit larger sample size before we declare AJ “fixed”.
Morillo
i was just looking over his stats and projections and frankly i think i’d rather have rupe.
sure morillo can light up the radar gun, but his ratios are pretty bad.

Is Rupe an answer to the bullpen problem?
Is he really helping the situation much? This bullpen needs some serious help, and all Rupe has shown over his career is that he is injury prone and not very good.
And you also have to start looking at the long-term options. Morillo might not work out, but his ceiling is better than Rupe’s and he has a chance to be here past this season. Even if we don’t jump all over this, isn’t Rupe going to go through arbitration next season? If that’s the case, then he’ll have to look a lot better than he has to avoid being non-tendered anyways.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
So...
Morillo is probably worse than Rupe, but he might be better, so cut loose Rupe and add Morillo?
I don’t see that that solves much of anything.
by Adam J. Morris on Apr 17, 2009 1:02 PM CDT up reply actions
do you think Rupe passes through waivers?
The "Fire Wash Watch" is on. I say he's gone by April 26th.
if he doesn't
he will probably go 14-8 with a 3.25 somewhere next year

Its not a guaranteed solution
but I don’t think like the chances of Rupe being good anytime soon. If Morillo doesn’t show any type of control, then I think you’re just going from bad to slightly worse. In the end, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal. That’s worth the possibility that we lose Rupe.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

isn’ t there a reasonable chance you can get something pretty equal to Feldman off of waivers or cheap in the off season. I know our pitching is bad, but keeping the middle of the bad lot isn’t that big of a deal.

I think hes a #5 starter/long man in the bullpen. That’s not trash but its also not a hard commodity to find another of, unless your us apparently.

Its not something...
…that you just dump on the waiver wire for no reason, either, which is why I’m sitting here trying to figure out why it is being suggested we just dump Feldman for Juan freaking Morillo.
by Adam J. Morris on Apr 17, 2009 1:12 PM CDT up reply actions
who else could you get right now
as a decent #5 option. Feldman was huge for us last year, and I felt like he should have been in the rotation to start the year. He saved our bullpen a number of times when they had been overworked by everyone else.

Baltimore or the Nats claim him and stick him in their rotation in a heartbeat.

Half his starts last year
were quality starts. His pitching as a starter wasn’t that bad.
Its not like you can build a rotation around him, but we seem to throw worse out there.

by Adam J. Morris on Apr 17, 2009 1:12 PM CDT up reply actions
And
he also might be about as good as Vicente Padilla since he has been a Ranger.
Its just a shame that Feldman is such crap as a reliever. It’d be nice to have a swingman who can transition, especially if he is a fairly mediocre starter.
I do understand them trying to pack as many arms on the roster though. They have so much deadwood on that staff, they are just hoping someone can step up.
"The idea that the Rangers are going to be a solid contender for a number of years is a fantasy." - Adam J. Morris
But, they are banking on someone getting injured
Feldman should get his opportunity this year before long. Or maybe this will be the only year in a long time where we don’t have to use 9 starters in the 1st 2 months.
Yep
they were playing a numbers game, and hoping Feldman didn’t completely suck as a reliever.
It’s pretty much a given that one of our pitchers will get injured, or suck too hard to continue to keep in the rotation/bullpen.
History says we will use around a dozen different starters and 25 or so pitchers total this year.
"The idea that the Rangers are going to be a solid contender for a number of years is a fantasy." - Adam J. Morris
yup
thats part of my problem with all these make good nri’s. the team gets enamored with the vet on the come back trail and use them over a young player they already have
"I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it." - Mitch Hedberg
Except
they could probably dump the vets they have also. Lets face it, Benson has a chance not to outpitch Feldman, but to outpitch Padilla.
The problem isn’t necessarily the make good NRIs clogging the roster, its the high dollar multiyear contracts with guys who don’t play much better than NRIs clogging the Roster.
Since they fattened Padilla’s wallet, he’s given the Rangers about a 5 ERA, and about a 45% quality start rate. They can probably do that with NRIs like Benson.
"The idea that the Rangers are going to be a solid contender for a number of years is a fantasy." - Adam J. Morris
I agree with that last part
but I don’t see why Feldman should be essentially punished for Padilla’s contract. He’s still at an age where he could fit in the rangers plans, hopefully as a 5th starter.
You can’t really say that about Benson. He’s here to provide a veteran presence and throw strikes to get the team off to a decent start for once. He really hasn’t done that up to this point. I’d wager he’s gone after the next 2-3 starts unless he decides to put it together.

"Computers can’t measure the size of a man’s heart."
- Hawk Harrelson, MLB Guru/Analyst
I honestly think
he is here for the insurance policy when one of our pitchers gets injured or optioned or release. It wouldn’t surprise me either if Benson was the one getting released.
It seems to me the Rangers have made 3 or so pitching moves in April alone the last handful of years.
They always start the year with a rotation and bullpen full of question marks, and one or two bubble up and play better than expected. Last year it was Ponson pitching better than expected, a few years before that it was Tejeda. I think they are just hoping Benson gets something going in case McCarthy gets injured, or Harrison starts sucking uncontrollably, or Padilla gets thrown in jail for a drunken brawl.
"The idea that the Rangers are going to be a solid contender for a number of years is a fantasy." - Adam J. Morris
It's tough to say
its completely dumbass when they win half of Benson’s starts. It’d be real tough to say that the outcome would’ve been significantly different had they released Benson, started Feldman, and put ??? in the bullpen. Its not like there aren’t other holes to be patched in the bullpen.
"The idea that the Rangers are going to be a solid contender for a number of years is a fantasy." - Adam J. Morris
Feldman
belongs in the/a rotation, he said in spring training he wasnt comfortable coming out of the pen, so either make room for hiim the big league rotation or put him in the AAA rotation (to me him in AAA is rediculous) he needs to be starting games

If Feldman fails, fine – bring up the AAA reinforcements after a few starts.

why Rupe over Eddie?
It’s not like we really use Eddie as a loogy. He is usually asked to come in and work an inning like anyone else. I would much rather drop Eddie and give Rupe another month or so. Rupe looked good in Wednesday’s game, getting four grounders that didn’t leave the infield, which is exactly what we need him to do. We just need him to skip the 2 run HR next time. Everyone around here is so adament about “playing the kids” and playing for the future, and yet people want to run Rupe off before Eddie Guardardo? I don’t get it.
