David Qualben

Qualben was an enigma early in the season, after entering the year with high expectations on the heels of a 7-2, 1.02 performance in the Coastal Plain League last summer. He struggled to get in sync, as his fastball velocity dropped from the 90-92 range down to the mid-80s and his command was erratic. He improved in the second half, as his velocity climbed back into the low 90s and he regained control of his fringy, rolling curveball and his changeup.
