    Peña makes a nice catch to start to atone for prior mistakes. This is after Travis Smith issued a walk on what looked very much like what I see strike 3 call. I mean I won’t call out the umps, but it was an ummm unusual call. Pena snares the liner to make out 4 …. Err out #3

    I was being kind calling it “weird” it was a disaster and a cluster….. Rivera did himself no favors, but two MISSED outs. Yikes

    Not sure how to describe the inning in Fayetteville Bases loaded and a grounder to short DiTuri throws close to 2nd, but apparently ruled Adamczewski was not on the base, the throw to first late. Bases loaded, and 4-1. Next batter pops up. Next batter ropes a single to left - throw in cut off then throw to second and Adamczewski clearly nails him but somehow called safe??? Two questionable calls against Adamczewski. 4-3 Next batter walk, and finally a grounder out ….. called out and no change of call by the ump🙄 Weird inning. Still 4-3 Mudcats.

    Rivera gets a K - I had video over on Biloxi but looks like clock violation automatic strike. ‘Next batter another 4 pitch walk. Bases juiced. 😳

    Rivera unable to find the zone in Fayetteville. 4 pitch walk then a HBP

    Matt Wood no doubter to right. Shuckers close the gap, it’s 3-2Clingstones

    I kept wanting to screen capture each update to track the changes throughout the year- but I forget to. Sorry If anyone has a prior list - or if anyone knows of the archive list please post here

    Oh please at least Tellez or higher. A lot of draft capital into Wilken, Boeve, Burke and Fischer. We need one of them to hit, and I would love at least 2 of them to hit, in order to cover the corner IF for the next 6+ years. (I should add Adams into that group; but not Bitonti, Ebel yet as they are several years off).

    Sheets was part of that 2008 season, he and CC were the backbone of the pitching staff. He got injured late in the season - I went back to look it up he pitched through mid-September but late August/early September is when he was not himself - and he made the All Star game that year. The CC trade was in July. Yovani Gallardo was injured early in the season and that factored into the team needing another starter. If Sheets remained healthy who knows. Just like with any of the draft picks - Arnett in '09, Jungman/Bradley etc etc. But back to this year's draft again.....

    Laser line drive right at the 3rd baseman and Daz is out. 2-1 loss. Yuck

    Pitch 103 it’s a soft fly to left and falls. 2 run single. Decent bounce back game for Carlos, but got into trouble with walks and got the pitch count too high. Sounds down 2-1. Childers in. Gonna take a break for a bit again.
  12. biedergb
    Wow they are letting Carlos F. go to 100 pitches 😬
  13. biedergb
    Good question. Or would it be that they would have scouted someone different with other traits. Maybe a little of both
  14. biedergb
    Yup- he was 0-9 with 4K the next two games. Then a couple good games, then a 6 game hitting streak, and recently he had a great stretch against Kannapolis and now this week.

    The economics of baseball were way different in 1992, but still yes, the organization has generally been one that acts like a small market, but the current owner and the organization in general is much more likely to at least invest money into drafts, draft picks, complex amenities etc as those are investments that can pay off in spades much later. The 1990s did not see real investment into player development, etc and such there was such a black hole from 1992 - 2007

    Wow! Great memory, it was in fact June 25th, and from your Link Report write up: Since that time he is slashing .233/.305/.380, which is not great but respectable, and he was at .158/.252/.297 at the time.

    He is adjusting fine early on to AA. He was in a slump before the promotion (from ASG break until his call up really), but this is what we were expecting. Hoping to more of this this last month of affiliated ball. I would love for Blake to force his way into the AAA/MLB picture next year. His Shuckers mates are not so hot recently - Lara not hitting well and has drawn only a few walks recently. Pratt who has been streaky (good April, poor May, great June, poor July) is due for a good month, but not showing it. I really feel he needs to repeat AA, which seems like such a let down for a guy who was talked about (OK not seriously, but mentioned) as the next 20 year old to make the team a year after Chourio, and much of that was hyperbole and writers going with early impressions and Pat Murphy hot-takes, but a AA/AAA year and maybe MLB next year seemed like a possibility, but he does need a bit more time. I don't know if I will watch Wichrowski start tonight - maybe - but seems every bit the typical has talent but walks, pitch counts and too many hits that has plagued him most of the year.

    After a miserable few games in May, and awful June, Anderson has been respectable in July and now August. When was that at bat @Joseph Zarr - I mean you may have nailed it on when his season started to turn around. He still has a lot of swing and miss particularly on the offspeed stuff, but he is also so young, can't expect every 18 year to hit the ground running in low A 😉 Yes. He is on a little heater recently with XBH. Still Ks too much, and is 19 still - will be 20 in the offseason, so has time. But he just misses some pitches that he should hit, and the hole needs to be closed and we have a stud in our midst. Both of these two guys have a lot of potential - Bitonti can absolutely be a 3TO player if he could mash in the strike zone which would lead to more pitches away and he has gone stretches without chasing too much. His is not the chase from what I've seen but the swing in miss in zone. Anderson has enough power to go along with speed, and solid defense where he can be CF or RF. He chases, but that can also be improved with time.

    Joseph was lamenting on Stanley’s managing of pitchers in late/tight games, and it was brought up that a lot of that is pre-determined, well to which this reply was meant (I think) for Joseph to say yeah but we still are in the moment during the game thread and look at every player, manager not through the development lens but through the “let’s win tonight” perspective, and this a-plies to us fans too. Probably because you are the most notable fan and have been at the Mudcats games he referenced you, I’m guessing. That’s how I took it. Bullpen management yesterday was the tipping point, with Reyes struggling and left in, and Bjorn Johnson being left in too long, it nearly cost the first game, and did cost the second game

    Not going to watch the T-Rats right now. May come back to see what happens later. Shuckers win was clutch. The Muddies late lose was difficult. Overall some nice outings by several Mudcats either pitching, defense of clutch hits.
  21. biedergb
    And after that Bitonti takes a borderline pitch (looked low given he is 6' 5") as strike 3 The Anderson misses and Ks swinging to end the game. Shoot so close to a comeback win.
  22. biedergb
    Aaron Rund has completely invited Peoria back into this game. Both runners of Birchard score and he has the bases loaded with only 1 out. Yikes. 4-3 TRats lead still.
  23. biedergb
    Encarnacion just hit that ball into the right field corner, and man how did the RF track it down, that had double or triple off the bat written all over it, but hung up some I guess. Nice running catch to rob Handelfry of an XBH. Dang it. Bitonti up now.
  24. biedergb
    OK. well after those two hiccups. He strikes out the next two on 3-2 counts. OK then. It's a 2 run deficit. Do the Cardiac Cats have it in them to make a comeback with a 7th inning rally?
  25. biedergb
    Birchard was throwing a no-hitter through 5 IP. Wow, but the 4 walks and a run allowed seem very Birchard-like. He gives up a hit and a walk in the 6th, and he is out making way for Aaron Rund
