David Nathanson, the lone unanimous choice to the Frontier League's East Division All-Star team, will be back with the Beach Bums this spring after re-signing today...
Nathanson finished 12-3 with league-leading 2.23 ERA last season with the Beach Bums...His 12 wins were second in the league and just one off of the Beach Bums single season record set by Tony Casoli in 2006...Nathanson missed time late in the season on injured reserve...He walked just 20 hitters in 114.1 innings of work and has walked just 31 in his two seasons with the Beach Bums after posting a 5-2 record with a 2.95 ERA in 2007...
Nathanson made 15 starts last season and lasted at least seven innings in 12 of those...The only thing missing from his resume was a complete game although he did throw nine innings in an 11-inning win over the Midwest Sliders on July 28...Nathanson struck out a career high seven batters in a win at Rockford on June 3...He won his first four starts of the season and also won his last two decisions, throwing 6.1 innings out of the bullpen in a 7-6 win over Kalamazoo on September 2...
Nathanson, a native of Maitland, Florida - where it is certainly warmer than the midwest currently (He already rubbed into me that as we were getting snow he was playing golf...), will be an LS-1 in 2009 and is one of four returning starting pitchers...
