I hope you realize that Portland is expected to be loaded with talent. Oh don't worry - I'm very aware of this. And replace "expected" with " ". This team is flat-out stacked as of right now! I'm blogging the blue Beavers for OregonLive.com (The Oregonian's online format) this season, and am in awe of the amount of talent that happens to be passing through Portland this year. I'm not sure what names you're looking for on Fresno's roster, but you may want to re-do your homework. The Giants may not have the best system in baseball, but their #4 (Nate Schierholtz), #9 (John Bowker) and #10 (Emmanuel Burriss) prospects are on the roster as linked. Throw in a few pitchers with big-league experience (Jesse Foppert, Pat Misch, Billy Sadler), and a former Brewers catching prospect (Eliezer Alfonzo) and you have a team that has a half dozen players worth watching, which is more than enough reason to go out and see a team. I guess it'd be more "do your homework", since I clearly know nothing about the Gigantes' AAA squad. I recognized Foppert, Messenger, Fortunato, Grybowski, Mateo, VICTOR SANTOS (!!WOO!@!OT!@!!), & E. Alfonzo... but no one else. ---- Pretty much why I posted this thread. So thanks for pitching in, cj. I'm sorry to so frequently leave things to asking you for help... you're just a very reliable & access-friendly source. Btw, the talent on the blue Beavers alone is reason enough to head out to PGE Park, imo!
