    Jeffress hit 101 last week so I hope nobody is actually considering giving up on him.
  2. brewpitch
    In my opinion, chalk that one up as a columnist not being very informed. No way they were going to push this guy up to Low A that quick. I wouldn't be surprised to see him start in Arizona this year and Helena next year.

    Little change. There were five released today, as this site shows. There will likely be another cut, and assignments still aren't completely set.
  4. brewpitch
    They will be assigned today. Not sure when it will be released.
  5. brewpitch
    Today is a big day. There will be some sad faces in the locker room today.

    Redman did bat .318 his last year with the Orioles and has a .281 life-time average. I'd hardly call that crap as a majority of big leaguers would love to have that average,

    Costello was a little under the weather. He was still good though. Had a botched double play that was ruled a hit that would have gotten him out of the inning without giving up a run.

    Honestly, if that is the case forget putting him on the 40-man roster. Get him the proper help for his problem. Don't be an enabler. Do you think the MLB is one big Maybury?
  9. brewpitch
    Correct
  10. brewpitch
    Because he's 21 and he tops out at 98. His control hasn't always been a problem. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the 40-man next year.

    If you can't look at the 2008 draft class and see where the pitching will come from then I don't know what to say. From reading this board, it seems that if a pitcher wasn't drafted in the top three rounds, there is no hope. I don't get it. What if the 20th pick got more than the 4th pick? Does that make the 20th pick the better prospect? Also, everybody that has already marked off Jeffress is crazy.
  12. brewpitch
    I wouldn't quite say that. He's played his entire life pretty much and has always been at or near the top of his league. He and Billings played on the same state championship team when they were 10. He's a tremendous athlete and probably would have made a great football player too.

    Can't judge a pitcher's performance by looking at a box score (most of the time) especially milb.com rookie league. I'm not even sure how qualified their scorekeepers are. From what I can tell, they can't judge a wild pitch from a pass ball and an error from a hit most of the time. Billings gave up two maybe three earned runs last night and was in position to not give up any. Two of the doubles were swinging bunts that got chopped over the third baseman's head. The triple was literally kicked into the gap by the centerfielder. He's a better pitcher right now than he was last summer with a 2.25 ERA. The staff is still really high on him.

    Autin Wood. 169 pitches. He threw 12 1/3 no hit innings that game (13 total). Taken by Detroit in the 5th round.

    Didn't realize Krestalude's time in Brevard was going to be that short. Interesting.
  16. brewpitch
    Add Wawrzasek to the list of pitchers staying in AZ.
  17. brewpitch
    Yes. Lintz, Lasker, and Billings will start back up in AZ. I expected at least two of the three to be in Helena, especially with Krestalude getting the call to Brevard. We'll see how the season plays out.
  18. brewpitch
    Lintz will be in Arizona again this year. Odorizzi will be in Helena.
  19. brewpitch
    Krestalude and Bucci's situations are different. There was no hat involved in Krestalude's call-up. He will be there around two months, depending on how the injuries go.
  20. brewpitch
    Bucci has made the best of his stay in Hunstville so far -- locating his pitches and topping out at 94.
  21. brewpitch
    Lintz, Orodizzi, and Billings are the only other three I know for sure.
  22. brewpitch
    FWIW, they drew names out of a hat in AZ. His name was in there with eight others. Still a great start for the kid. He's obviously done something down there to get his name in the hat.
  23. brewpitch
    They're all 19 year-old kids. They don't have any business pitching in 25 degree weather right now, especially after they've been pitching in Arizona weather. No need to rush them. At least as a former pitcher, that's the way I see it. Helena's staff will be loaded though!
  24. brewpitch
    Not Josh, but I believe the ruling is MLB is a private entity that isn't listed under HIPAA law and is required to share info that could change the outcome of a game or trade.
  25. brewpitch
    A lot of guys are down there for Winter Workouts right now. From what I gather its mostly pitchers and catchers and guys in the lower levels. The pitchers (in the lower levels) finish on March 6 and report back on March 9.
