Remember Stefan Crichton? The guy who ended last year as the Arizona closer, and posted an ERA of 2.42? I miss him. Going by this afternoon’s outing, that version of Crichton can now only be found on the side of a milk carton. Today, he faced six batters and failed to retire any of them, giving up two hits and three walks. All six then came around to score, and even if one run was unearned Stefan now possesses a real chonker of a spring ERA, at 15.75. I know spring training numbers are meaningless, but I’m certainly concerned to see Crichton allow eight hits and four walks in four innings.
Diamondbacks 4, White Sox 7: It was going so well, too...
