FACTS/FLUKES: Vogelsong, J Garcia, Uggla, Frazier, Detwiler
Apr 22 2013
Giant production ... Ryan Vogelsong’s (SP, SF) first year as a starter (2004) netted an ERA of 6.50. Two years later he posted a mark of 6.38 in 38 relief innings. That led to a trip across the Pacific to play three years in Japan. A 2011 minor league contract with a spring training invite led to a break-through 180-inning, 139-strikeout, 2.71 ERA season for the Giants. Vogelsong backed that up with a 190-inning, 78-BPV season last year:
