Beautiful Line by 3TO
Also nice to see Jeffress looking good. Hopefully it is a sign of things to come.

Definitely
He was hitting 99 MPH.
He's extremely quick and good.

Just out of Curiosity
I checked out Jeffress’s and Gallardo’s numbers from their times in W.V. I was actually surprised by how similar the numbers were. Jeffress had a slightly higher HR9 and BB9 but had a lower H9 and a higher K9 along with nearly identical WHIPs.
"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."

Gallardo has pretty good stuff, but Jeffress has true ace stuff
Comparing numbers in the low minors isn’t necessarily that informative, as pitchers like Will Inman, who are severely lacking in “stuff” can often post similar or superior numbers to guys who are serious pitching prospects.
He's extremely quick and good.

Good Point
My main objective was to see what sort of timeline the Brewers might use with Jeffress. I thought maybe Gallardo would make a good comparison and was just surprised how similar their low minor numbers were.
