Kloffenstein is off to a good 1st month. He is still quite young for AA. The hits against are good, Ks are ok. The BB are improving. I don't know what his velocity is.

Kloffenstein has been sitting 91 mph for the most part... Touching 92-93. Command hasn't been great but he's been changing speeds and using his secondary stuff effectively.

Ceiling-wise he's a 5/6 starter (up-down starter) or a bulk/long guy.

I think there's still more velo in his frame but he doesn't use his lower half effectively and is pretty stiff in his delivery.

Crazy game in Vancouver today - 11 to 1 for the Canadians. Dasan Brown goes 3 for 4 with a walk but still has an OPS sub 400. Talk about a slow start, but hopefully today is a sign of things to come. Ideally he climbs a level a year and is ready in 3 to 4 years.
