whither pomeranz?

Considering the problems Colorado is having with its pitching, one has to wonder: What’s up with Drew Pomeranz? The former first-round pick out of Ole Miss, acquired in the Ubaldo Jimenez trade with Cleveland last summer, is 4-4 with a 2.51 ERA in nine starts at Class AAA Colorado Springs. He has won his last two starts, including a six-inning, no-hit stint on June 19. In 46 2/3 innings, he has 46 strikeouts and 20 walks. The 6-foot-5 left-hander was sent down after five starts (0-2, 4.70) with the Rockies to polish his mechanics and refine his secondary pitches. He might be close to getting another call-up.
