Who Is Carlos Rosa?
That failed trade the Marlins explored last week involving Mike Jacobs and the Kansas City Royals (still seems like an odd landing place for Jake) involved a minor league pitcher named Carlos Rosa. Mike Berardino revealed that today in his article for the Sentinel. The man who has been on the DL since August 1st seems to be getting mixed reviews. The MinorLeagueBall blog takes a good look at Carlos Rosa.
Rosa went 4-2, 1.20 with a 42/7 K/BB in 45 innings for Double-A Northwest Arkansas this spring. He made two appearances with the Royals and looked quite good in 3.1 innings, fanning three with one run allowed. His Triple-A numbers were less impressive, though not bad at all for the Pacific Coast League: 4.09 ERA with a 44/12 K/BB in 51 innings, 51 hits allowed.
