Los Angeles Angels young southpaw pitcher didn’t have an ideal start in Triple-A.
The Los Angeles Angels made a tough move last weekend when they decided to option their young southpaw starting pitcher, Reid Detmers, to Triple-A. After a month and a half of struggles, the HalosDetmers had his first start in Triple-A Salt Lake City, and it wasn't ideal. Michael Huntley, a contributor for the Orange County Register, shared Detmer's stat line, but it wasn't pretty.
Reid Detmers is through 3 innings in his start for Triple-A Salt Lake City. He has given up 8 hits, 7 earned runs, 4 home runs and has four strikeoutsThe 24-year-old has had a tough go on the mound, and that's trickled down to Triple-A. The hope was for Detmers to regain his confidence and find his groove; however, after one start, it's not looking great.
Detmers started the season on a strong note, recording a 3-0 start in 17.1 innings and 26 strikeouts. Since then, it's all gone downhill as he's recorded a 1-6 record with a 7.10 ERA, 51 strikeouts, and 41 earned runs. The southpaw has struggled like none other, and right now, the odds of him finding his groove again seem bleak. Weirder things have happened in baseball, as we can't count out Detmers yet.
