Hidenberger is a sidearmer who could soon move up to Fort Myers due to his dominant performance early on at Cedar Rapids.

Yesterday Hildenberger threw 2.2 scoreless innings, and struck out 4. His ERA is now 0.44.

Hildenberger picked up a three inning save against the Beloit Snappers yesterday, and his ERA is now at 0.35.

Thanks for picking him up, by the way!

 

The numbers are completely ridiculous. He is the most deserving of a promotion. He is also oldish for A ball, so Fort Myers is where he should be immediately. I want to see the movement in the system now.

Trevor Hildenberger pitched 2 scoreless innings and struck out 3 batters, picking up his second win and lowering his ERA to 0.31.

Given his age, I have to think he's going to get pushed up soon.  He's clearly not being challenged in low A. 

Sick. Absolutely sick.

 

What's the word on his stuff?

Sweet sounding bullpen option in that article. We'll See how it pans out as he progresses up through the minors

Trevor Hildenberger was names Twins Minor League Pitcher of the Month, and a MWL All-Star. He has a 0.59 ERA and 40 strikeouts in 30.2, plus 5 saves in 5 chances.

Trevor Hildenberger is still making MWL hitters look foolish, and I expect him to be promoted to Fort Myers soon.

 

2015 stats to date:
35.1 IP, 0.51 ERA, 11.6 K/9, 1.29 BB/9 (46/5), 0.57 WHIP

 

11.9 K/9 and 0.9 BB/9. It is still very early after his promotion to Fort Myers, but he is putting up basically the exact same numbers as he did for Cedar Rapids. He is now almost the most interesting reliever prospect in the system. Should just move to AA for the beginning of 2016. Who knows what could happen after that?

Hildenberger was possibly the biggest breakout pitcher in the organization this year, finishing the year with great numbers across the board.

 

2015 final line:

 

64 IP, 1.55 ERA, 11.3 K/9, 0.98 BB/9 (80/7), 0.72 WHIP
