Newsbreakers
October 4, 2009
Wade Davis dropped to 2-2 on the season after allowing five runs (three earned) to the Yankees in a 10-2 loss on Sunday. He allowed six hits and two walks while striking out five.
Our View:
Davis' talent is well recognized, but he's shown a bit of Jekyll and Hyde in his rookie campaign. In six starts this season he was brilliant in three and awful in the remaining three.
September 29, 2009
Wade Davis only surrendered one earned run on seven hits over seven innings in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Orioles at Tropicana Field. He had three walks with three strikeouts.
Our View:
It was a strong outing for the rookie, despite the three free passes. He allowed two or less earned runs in each of his last three starts, and looks to be a hot target among fantasy hurlers for 2010.
September 23, 2009
Wade Davis gave up four runs (two earned) on seven hits over 5.2 innings in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Mariners at Tropicana Field. He had one walk and fired six strikeouts.
Our View:
The Rays were trailing 4-0 when Davis exited, so he ends the night with a no-decision. He allowed two or less earned runs in three of his four starts this season.
September 17, 2009
In just his third career start, rookie Wade Davis dazzled the Orioles on Thursday night. The 24-year-old righty struck out ten in a complete game, four-hit shutout, lowering his ERA from 8.38 to 4.34.
Our View:
It was a tantalizing glimpse into the future for the Rays. Perhaps the trade of Scott Kazmir will not leave as gaping a hole in the Rays' 2010 rotation as originally thought.
September 17, 2009
Despite his struggles against Boston on Saturday, MLB.com reports that Wade Davis will take the mound on Thursday night against the Orioles.
Our View:
Davis sparkled in his first start against the Tigers, but was mangled by Boston bats in his second. He's best left out of fantasy play, as no one really knows what to expect from the high-level prospect.
September 12, 2009
After limiting the Tigers to three hits over seven innings in his frist career start on September 6th, Wade Davis got blown up by Boston on Saturday night, allowing eight runs in just 2.2 innings, as Tampa lost a rain-shortened game 9-1.
Our View:
A tale of two starts, to say the least. Obviously, Davis is too unpredictable to own going forward.
September 8, 2009
Wade Davis will remain in the Rays' rotation, according to the Tampa Tribune.
Our View:
Davis impressed the Rays, as he only allowed one earned run over seven innings in his major league debut against the contending Tigers over the weekend. The struggling Andy Sonnanstine was demoted to a bullpen role, and Davis is worth targeting if dangling on the waiver wire in fantasy leagues.
September 6, 2009
Wade Davis made his major league debut in style on Sunday as he dominated the Tigers for seven innings. Davis allowed only one run on three hits while walking one and striking out nine, but his bullpen couldn't deliver him his first win as the Rays fell by a score of 5-3.
Our View:
Davis has been highly touted for some time, and he showed today why. He has outstanding stuff, and he made a very good Tigers' lineup look silly today. Davis has a very bright future, and is a name to keep in mind for keeper leagues and for next season.
September 2, 2009
As expected, Wade Davis has been recalled from Triple-A Durham by the Rays, according to the Associated Press.
Our View:
Davis will make his MLB debut this weekend to start Sunday's game against the Tigers. He went 10-7 with a 3.20 ERA over 27 starts with Durham this season, and the top prospect is worth a look as a flier for AL-only leagues.
September 2, 2009
The Rays will call up Wade Davis from Triple-A Durham to start Sunday, according to Marc Lancaster of the Tampa Tribune.
Our View:
Sounds like Andy Sonnanstine has been bumped from the rotation again already. Davis has a 3.40 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 8.0 K/9 rate at Triple-A Durham and is one of the better pitching prospects in the minors. Those in AL-only leagues could do worse than take a flier on him.
June 8, 2009
Wade Davis improved to 6-3 for Triple-A Durham on Monday after throwing six scoreless innings. He allowed four hits, three walks and fanned seven.
Our View:
Davis' ERA is down to 3.18 in 12 starts. The 23-year-old remains the team's best starting option at Triple-A.
June 4, 2009
Wade Davis lost on Wednesday against Triple-A Toledo despite fanning 13 in six innings. He allowed three runs on eight hits.
Our View:
Tampa Bay's strong, underrated pitching prospect allowed two home runs, one of which was off the bat of Marcus Thames. Davis still needs to work on his control, but his 3.51 ERA for Durham is impressive.
March 8, 2009
Wade Davis was roughed up in his first spring loss Sunday, surrendering six runs on eight hits in two and two-thirds innings to Boston.
Our View:
The 23-year-old Davis, who stands at 6'5", 220 pounds, is an imposing figure on mound and has all the stuff, but it may be a bit too much to ask him to land a spot in the rotation right out of spring training. He will need some seasoning at AAA to start the year.
March 2, 2009
Wade Davis looked very good against the Cardinals in his first spring start on Monday. He went 3.2 innings and gave up just one hit, no runs, no walks, and one strikeout.
Our View:
Davis is drawing a lot of attention this spring, and he is competing for the Rays No. 5 spot in the rotation. The Rays have a load of talented arms, so he will need to continue and have outings like today's in order to be in the opening day rotation.
March 1, 2009
The Tampa Bay Tribune reports that Wade Davis will get the start Monday against the Cardinals.
Our View:
This will be the first start for the heralded Davis, who ascended rapidly through Tampa's AA and AAA affiliates a season ago, posting a 13-8 record and 3.47 ERA between both teams.
