“We’re going to call up [Joan] Adon,” manager Davey Martinez told reporters Friday night, after announcing before the series opener in Cincinnati Trevor Williams would not return from the Bereavement List in time to face the Reds
“So [Adon will] start for us tomorrow and then we’ll see what happens after that.”
“He’s actually been throwing the ball a lot better,” Martinez explained when asked why the 24-year-old right-hander was the right choice, “… and I liked the way he threw the ball before we sent him back, but he’s got a little confidence coming [up], he’s been throwing the ball well, so he gets an opportunity to come in here and start for us tomorrow.
