PorcelloEvery time I read about Tigers pitching prospect Rick Porcello, I can’t help but recall the famous quote from “Major League.”

“Forget about the curve ball Ricky, give him the heater.”
- Manager Lou Brown

Porcello is pitching well so far in his first professional season, and the guys at Fangraphs had a blurb about him that I found worthwhile. Enjoy it here.
