Zimmermann was a money-saving fifth-rounder by Atlanta in 2017, traded to Baltimore in the deal that sent Kevin Gausman to the Braves. Zimmermann’s polish and control allowed him to zip through the low-minors, but he’s the type of pitching prospect who generally hits a ceiling against more advanced competition. The lefty pounds the zone with a four-pitch mix, sitting in the high-80s with his fastball and topping out at 91 mph. His slider and changeup are fringy (but usable) offerings, and he’ll mix a lollipop curve at times for another look. Zimmermann could wind up a high-minors depth starter, but the pitchability and guile give him a chance at a long relief role in the big leagues.

Norfolk time

[SportsGuy]

He has 118.2 innings pitched in AA.

 

3.12 IP, 8.5 K rate, 3,6 BB rate, .99 HR rate

 

The BB and K rates are better this year. HR rate is essentially what it has been.  Has only given up 55 hits in 68.2 IP.  Averaging close to 6 IP per start.

 

No issue bringing him up and no issue giving him a few more starts in AA either.

Pulling for him, saw him pitch in High School.

Always nice to see local kids have success.
