A gem for Hottovy

Posted by Matthew Namee
If you read THT Live often, you know that I'm pretty high on Wichita State senior lefty Tommy Hottovy. Hottovy was exclusively a reliever in his NCAA career until last weekend, when he looked great in his first career start. Tonight, though, he was even better: a 7-inning complete game victory, with just one run on 4 hits. He also struck out 10 while walking none.

The gem puts Hottovy's record this year at 7-3, with a 2.11 ERA and 81 strikeouts (against only 9 walks) in 64 innings. That's 11.4 K/9 and 1.3 W/9. He's going to be a great sleeper pick for some MLB team come the June draft.



Matthew Namee cofounded The Hardball Times in 2004, when he was working as the assistant to baseball author and Red Sox executive Bill James. Matthew still lives in Kansas, where he is currently pursuing a law degree. He can be reached at mfnamee [at] gmail [dot] com.
