Newsbreakers

November 20, 2009

Jorge Campillo has signed a minor league contract with the Kansas City Royals, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

Along with Brad Thompson, the Royals have now snagged the free agent market's two biggest prizes. Campillo has a lifetime 4.23 ERA in 180.2 innings.

June 3, 2009

Jorge Campillo has been placed on the 15-day DL for the second time this season due to shoulder problems, according to the AP. Outfielder Brian Barton was called up to take his place.

Our View:

Campillo has battled shoulder problems since coming out of the WBC. In five relief appearances, Campillo has posted a 4.15 ERA and a 2.31 WHIP. He was a surprising starter for the Braves last season and was expected to be a part of their rotation this year.

April 16, 2009

ESPN.com reports that pitcher Jorge Campillo was placed on the DL with shoulder tendinitis following Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Marlins. Manager Bobby Cox says the reliever has not been the same since starting two games for Mexico in the World Baseball Classic.

Our View:

Campillo is a big part of the Braves bullpen, which has not gotten off to the best start. Hopefully he can get back into form and return to health to help bolster a strong starting rotation.

February 26, 2009

Jorge Campillo was rocked for three earned runs on five hits over two innings of work in Thursday's 8-7 win over the Astros, with two walks and one strikeout.

Our View:

Campillo held a 1.24 WHIP over 158.2 innings in 2008, and is expected to earn a spot in the middle of the Braves' rotation, despite today's tough first outing of the preseason.
