Christopher Schwinden (born September 22, 1986) is a Major League Baseball pitcher for the New York Mets.
Professional career
Schwinden was drafted by the Detroit Tigers in the 43rd round of the 2004 Major League Baseball Draft out of Golden West High School in Visalia, California, however he did not sign and attended Fresno Pacific University. He was then drafted by the New York Mets in the 22nd round of the 2008 Major League Baseball Draft.[1]
He was called up to the majors for the first time on September 5, 2011 after a stellar season for the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons. Schwinden began the season at Double-A Binghamton but made the most of a spot start on April 17 to secure a spot in the Triple-A rotation. From there, he led the Bisons in starts (26), innings pitched (145.2), ERA (3.95) and strikeouts (134) while tying for the team lead with eight wins and being named to the Triple-A All-Star team. [2] Schwinden's 134 strikeouts were the 3rd-most in a single season by a Bisons pitcher in the modern era. [3]
