- Fausto Carmona, the 19-year-old, paced all Indians minor-league pitchers last season with a
72 percent strike efficiency. He walked 11 in 80 innings at short-season Burlington and Mahoning
Valley, but gave up 91 hits in the process.
- Fausto Carmona signed as a non-drafted free agent in 2000 out of the Dominican Republic, has
the repertoire to make batters flinch. His fastball settles in the low 90s. "We have to instill a
little bit more of an aggressiveness in him, where he's not worried about hitting somebody,"
John Farrell said. (All of the above from PlainDealer.com)
