Of the three marquee draft picks the Padres inked last Summer - Donavan Tate, Everett Williams and Keyvius Sampson - only Keyvius is having a sparkling start to his professional career.Nagging injuries have limited Tate and Everett and kept them from building on flashes of potential.
Keyvius, on the other hand, is rolling along at a steady clip. Through 7 starts in the Northwest League, Keyvius is 7-0 and leads the league with a 1.87 ERA. He also leads the league with 46Ks and is second to teammate Matthew Lollis with a .98 WHIP. He even threw a 5-inning no no on July 14.
I don't profess to know the Padres' plans regarding Keyvius, but I think he's ready for Fort Wayne.
