Say Hey -

Correia has a decent, but not overpowering fastball. At the ML level he will really need to learn how to pitch to be sucessful. I thought he was decent in his appearences with the big club. I saw him pitch in LA and it looked like the Dodger batters were catching up to him the 2nd time through the lineup (he gave up back2back HR's - or was that back2back2back? in a late Sept start).

I'd have no problem with him starting the year in SF if he can show himself clearly better than Hermanson. But having him in Fresno ready in case of injury is not bad either.
