Notes: MacDonald carved up hitters in the low minors despite less-than-stellar stuff. Many thought he would struggled in his first tasted of double-A, but he did not. MacDonald is probably better-suited for the pen because he needs good location to survive and his fastball is well below average. He averaged more than two ground balls per fly ball in 2006.
