You probably missed him.
His profile shows him assigned to the Minnesota Twins as of March 24.
Well, that's better news

I linked his profile. What link are you looking at. Lookouts only have one series in P'cola. I hope I get to see him play.

Scroll down to the transactions section. The first item, dated Mar. 24.

Is it possible that his name is Paul Randall LeBlanc, Randall Paul LeBlanc, or some such? The Lookouts list him as "Paul Paul LeBlanc."

He hasn't pitched in two weeks.
He has only been "fair to middlin" this year.
The All-star break just finished so I supposed it's possible that he's been sent back to Ft. Myers.
Or, they may try to see if he's any better coming out the of the bullpen.

Shows him as going 5.1 in a no-decision for Chattanooga, 6/16/17. Carrying a 5.44 era.

Ian Gibaut was called up to Montgomery and has been pitching for the Biscuits for a couple months now.

I only found out because they are in town playing the Blue Wahoos and I was checking the rosters.

He's pitching well for the Biscuits and is 2-1 with 2 saves and a 1.90 ERA in 24 innings pitched.
Problem with going to see a reliever is to try and guess which nights he's most likely to get in.

Problem solved. Double header tomorrow.
I'll be the guy in the Tulane gear in the first row by the biscuit's bullpen

Me: Jewett or Canni.........
Before I can get to the "O"

Rye smile and "they screwed that one up."

1 inning. Maybe 10 pitches. 8 strikes. (Bottom of 5th in 7 inning game)
Top 6-- biscuits take lead. Rain comes.
2 walks and 1so and he's taken out
Rain really heavy
