.. for a Colorado Springs vs. Tacoma game next year.  I'll make the drive down from Denver. 
Sometimes I think half the contributors here live in Colorado.

I'm a bigger Beavan fan than many.  In '09 in A+ he was at 6.25 k/9 and 1.96 b/9.  In 2010 before the trade he was 5.5 and 0.98!  He has been tremendously inconsistent with periods of greater velo and more missed bats and lesser control, and periods of better control and less velo and no missed bats.  However, when I watch starter after starter start gaining velocity in the M's system (paging Dr. Elliot) and with the knowledge that when drafted (17th overall!) this kid was a hard thrower - it's no stretch to believe he (like Fister this year) may find a few extra feet on his fastball.  And lets not forget he's only 22 and already putting up a 90 ERA+.
