Cole Hamels struck out 36 and walked one in three Triple-A starts this year, but in two starts with the Phillies he's struck out 12 and walked nine.

May 10, 2006
The Phillies announced Wednesday that top pitching prospect Cole Hamels will be called up from Triple-A to start on Friday against the Reds, according to the team's web site. "You always need pitching," said manager Charlie Manuel. "When someone is pitching that good, it's just a matter of time until he ends up in the big leagues. ... I'm all for anything that can help our club." Ryan Madson will be sent to the bullpen to make room in the rotation for Hamels. Hamels, who was promoted to Triple-A in late April, has posted a 2-0 record with a 0.39 ERA in three starts since the promotion. He has also struck out 36 and walked just one in 23 innings of work.
May 10, 2006
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Phillies officals met yesterday to discuss the future of Cole Hamels and there were strong indications that his next start will come with the Phillies. "We're close," assistant general manager Mike Arbuckle said. "It's not going to be much longer, but there are a few moving pieces we have to figure out and people we would have to talk to." Ryan Madson and Gavin Floyd would be the "pieces," and one would have to move the bullpen. Both Madson and Hamels are scheduled to pitch Friday, so bumping Madson and bringing up Hamels may be the simplest solution.

"At some point before long we'll have to take a hard look at doing something," Phillies assistant GM Mike Arbuckle said of the possibility of Hamels' promotion to the Phillies. "If he keeps pitching like this, I don't think it'll be a lot longer. But we still have to sort it out."
