Tyson Ross

Tyson Ross has been announced as the starter for tomorrow's game versus one Jeremy Bonderman, who was pretty public a few year ago about the fact that he thought he'd been given a raw deal in the A's minor league system. Probably doesn't have the chip on his shoulder he once did versus the A's, but still has pretty good career numbers against the A's.

Tyson Ross, on the other hand, in short order, has been catapulted from rookie reliever to primary set-up guy, and now to fourth starter. He's basically a two pitch pitcher, but those two pitches are pretty good. The only thing to watch with him is the movement on his breaking pitch; he's effective when it starts high and outside and nips the plate; when it gets flat, he's hittable.

His last three lines: 

(L) 3 2/3 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 0 BB, 3 K

(W) 3 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 2 K

(ND) 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K

Totals: 8 2/3 IP, 10 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 0 BB, 5 K

Record: 1-1 WHIP: 1.15 K/9 IP: 5.77
