4) Dustin Richardson: 18 pitches. FB, CB, CU. 0 strikes swinging,
- Richardson is a 6-6, 220 pound lefty. The 25 year old has a big frame that can add a little more muscle, but is close to maxed out. He came from an over the top release with some interesting mechanics that are definitely max effort. He has a very exaggerated opening of his shoulder and it looks like his arm is playing catch-up. He lands hard on his front leg and puts all his body weight on this landing leg, likely something that may end up causing injury to that leg. Also has a fairly violent head jerk. His fastball is a pretty straight 4-seam. His change has good fade from righties. His curve is a good looking 11-5 with good late break and slightly above average depth. Should be a solid lefty reliever for a long time, or at least as long that he is healthy.
5th: FB (91-93), CB (76), CU (80-82)
5) Manny Delcarmen: 19 pitches. FB, CB, CU. 1 strike swinging. Curveball.
- Delcarmen came from an over the top release and showed a 1-7 curve with slightly above average depth, a fastball with a little run in on righties and a change with some fade from lefties and a little sink. Stuff has taken a step back since the beginning of the season.

7) Hunter Jones: 23 pitches. FB, SL, CU. 3 strikes swinging. 2 Sliders, Fastball.
- Jones came from an over the top release and showed a sweeping 11-5 slurve that was sharp with slightly below average depth and a straight 4-seam fastball that flashes a little cutter action.
7th: FB (86-89), SL (76-79) - FB (Wells), 2 SL (Wells - 2)
8) Hideki Okajima: 15 pitches. FB, CB, Split. 0 strikes swinging.
