The Astros have released Tri-City pitcher Max Fearnow.
Fearnow signed as an undrafted free agent at the end of June, got started in Tri-City's rotation, did well, and got moved to the bullpen, where he did not do so well. He struck out 21 and walked 17 in 36.2IP of work.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.

Tri-City ValleyCats: Max Fearnow
Max Fearnow
How did he get here?: Undrafted free agent. Signed June 30, 2009
Stats: 6'4", 205 lbs, Throws: Right
Age as of April 1, 2010: 23
Splits!
Season Total
K/9 Rate: 5.2
BB/9 Rate: 4.2
Groundout/Flyout Rate: 1.00
K:BB Ratio: 1.24
Like Donovan, Fearnow started four games this season - but they were at the beginning of Tri-City's year, where he posted a 3.00 ERA/1.20 WHIP line. I'm not sure of the circumstances, but Fearnow was then moved to the bullpen, where he flat-out struggled (just go back and look at those August appearances). Of Fearnow's seven appearances in August, four of them were 2+ ER outings - which will kill an ERA. Only once did he get out of a game without allowing a run, and he walked two batters in that game. So let's go ahead and slide Max back to the rotation.
