Partin on Rothlin: "Chad's like an ATECH machine. He's upper 80's and filthy. Chad has been with us longer than any other Dirtbag we'll have this summer. He's extremely valuable to our team. He's been in more big games than any other guy we've got. Chad's got a great aptitude for pitching. He's got great feel for the strike zone and the ability to throw strikes in and out of the zone. He's loose and athletic and he comes at hitters from a tough arm angle. I love sticking him in the tough situations because he's got a complete absence of fear. He's that silent assassin. We'll lean on him a lot this summer. We're thankful he's 17U eligible."
