Henry Ownes was recalled by teh Mets to fill Pedro martinez's spot on the major league roster.
He had struck out 51 of the 76 outs he got in AA this season while giving up only 8 hits in those 25.1 innings along with 8 BBs.
That type of dominance will always catch my attention.
I watched him pitch following Mike Pelfrey's mediocre debut. Owens has a funky delivery where he brings his glove to his chest and brings the ball back up to his ear while drpping the glove further. he is then all arms and legs throwing the ball - consistnetly at 95 MPH.
I am not sure he can dominate but he could be helpful for a Mets teams looking for internal options versus trading propsects for proven veterans.
He is on my future closer watch but not while a Met and likely not for a season or two on a different team.
