Making his mlb debut today for the Dodgers, he's 19.. I've never seen a 19 year old pitch in the majors. This kid must be great.

Really? Dwight Gooden. David Clyde. Terry Forster. Bart Johnson. And I realize you didn't see him, but Bob Feller went 5-3 and struck out about 80 guys and then went back to Iowa for his senior year of high school.

You are right..Gooden was 19, he was 17-9 with 2.60 ERA and the next tear @ 20 years old he was 24-4 with a 1.53 ERA :shock:

his strikeout totals were hilarious his first couple years, just mind-boggling for a 19/20 year old.

Joe Nuxhall made his MLB debut as apitcher with the Reds in 1944 at age 15. I believe he is the youngest player to ever appear in a MLB game.

Nuxhall had no business being in the majors. pitched 2/3 of an inning getting shelled. probably more surprisingly he spent the next 7 years in the minors before fashioning a decent MLB career.

Fangraphs had a pretty good write up on him. He's the first teenage pitcher to get the call since MadBum.
