Best of luck in the remaining viewing, all. I'm going to take a break and start readying to watch the Sounds Durham game. Go Brewers. Enjoy your game. -
Well, it's a game thread. We're playing the Cubbies. All is fine. I'm merely pointing out: with prospects, especially highly-touted ones, patience is the better part of valor. And, as we know, I'm an unabashed advocate for our Minor League guys.?

I just don't understand the over-reactions to Small's start whatsoever. Nothing that happened here is news or mildly surprising, imho. The issues for Ethan, and a forced promotion, were known: no third or secondary 'Out' pitch, walks concerning at Triple-A, best suited as a Middle-Relief guy until he gets his feet wet and develops more of his tool kit. He lost himself in his third inning. Kelly picked him up and helped the team in a super tough spot. This is baseball. The jump to the Majors is HUGE. I think when you watch as many Minor League games as I do, your perspective is just much different. I consider today's start a huge success. It reinforces what Ethan needs to work upon and improve. Let's hope he finds himself in the interim and ensuing action. And, let's hope he keeps grinding.

Velocity isn't everything. Small has incredible spin rate on his 'heat' so his fastball combined with the change really sneaks up on hitters. This isn't the issue. Longevity will ultimately depend on, IMHO, can he fine-tune a third pitch. He has plenty of stuff to carve out an early role. It's more a 'Where does he go from here?' on my end. But, the spin rate has been discussed a bit down in Nashville - in interviews, in-game etc. Unsolicited, fwiw.

Man, that was estimated a 440’ laser show. Yowza, Jacey.

I can avow: this is true?
-
We can all relate to this.?

So, the Carlos Rodriguez injury today: 1:58:17 on the replay. Extremely hard to tell what happened but it does not look good seeing him walk back into the dug-out. That's a non-contact left-leg injury. Those typically don't fare well in the prognosis/diagnosis. Ugh. We'll have to wait and see but, I am unabashed in saying: I am a wee heartbroken for the young man. This was the best stretch of Carlos Rodriguez baseball we have seen. He was electric in May. ?

Nash Walters grabs 2 k's and a well-hit fly out. That's a 5-0 Organizational Memorial Day Weekend Sunday! Heck yeah! The Shuckers get the four-game sweep to boot and are back above 0.500!
-
Brent Diaz: baseball player. What a game! He just jacked a home run over the wall in left field, into a tree (a Sycamore by my eyes) and it's now 5 rbi's on the night. That Biscuit run re-claimed: 16-11 now. Thats 3-for-4 on the evening with 3 runs and 5 rbi's for Brent.
-
Taylor Floyd with the Yeoman's work in the eighth as he takes on JT Hintzen's 0 down and two-on 'work'. He walks his first batter, gets the double play ball (great work from Dillard here) and then closes it out with the strike out. 15-11 and on to the bottom half.
-
Oh BABY! A bases-clearing double from who other than the red-hot Tristan Lutz! He ropes an absolute laser down the right-field line. And, it's a five-run bottom half of the seventh. Still only one out. That's now a 15-10 game. Yowza! Let's grab that Organizational SWEEP!!!!
-
Joey strikes out on a ball in the dirt but Thomas Dillard comes through again with a second knock up the middle and the bases remain full with one down. Jakson Reetz is at the plate. Shuckers lead 11-10.
-
The bases are juiced. There are NO outs. And Southern League Home Run leader, Joey Wiemer is at the dish. Felix Valerio worked an 0-2 count in true Valerio fashion for the walk to load the bags.
-
Well, Shucks! I watch Nashville close out a victory and, meanwhile, the Shuckers' Pen allowed a three-run opposite-field jack to tie the game at 10. 10-10 now (whew) in the bottom of the seventh. Montgomery does not want to get swept! Kudos to the Biscuits for staying in it and making a real game of this. It would appear those runs came on Hintzen but an error was charged previous the HR to Cam Devanney. We'll have to go back and 'see the tape'.
-
Hobie Harris works out of some no out trouble - a seeing eye dribbler to third followed by a well-hit single up the Middle. BUT, Nashville now has an 8-0 record on series closing games on the season. Think about that. These Sounds are unreal good at the Triple-A level. Hobie gets a double play ball and follows with a K. One harmless run and the Sounds split the 6-game series winning 9-5.
-
Pablo Pablito clavó un clavito. ¿Que clasé de clavito clavó Pablito? Un 'Home Run' The 3-run type. The type of low grabbing beautiful golf swing bombs over the walls in left giving your team 3 runs to add atop a 2 run cushion. It's now 9-4 Sounds off of Reyes' beauty. LET'S GO!!!!!
-
The Biscuits grab a run back in the top of the sixth, but the Shuckers take two to start the bottom-half with a Thomas Dillard well-hit single that snuck under the Biscuits' pitcher's mitt and straight into center field. Felix Valerio (laser shot single to left field - his second on the day) and Joey Wiemer (walked) scored. Both runners had advanced on a wild pitch. It's now 10-7 Shuckers.
-
Wily Adames with the successful Low-A start today in Zebulon - including a 2-run jack early to change the tone of the game. He speaks to getting comfortable and what I see very time I watch these young Mudcats: lotta talent. Stay tuned as Wily will head straight to Nashville's team hotel as they are the sole Affiliate with a Monday game tomorrow. Give it a watch if you are able!
-
Matt Hardy with another clean inning for the Sounds. He gives up a seeing-eye bloop single off the shallow grass in right field but, with the shift on, Pablo Reyes adeptly fields a sharp-hit grounder and grabs the inning-ending double play. It's on to the top of the eighth and it's still 6-4 Nashville.
-
Great complimentary stuff from Wily Adames regarding our young and uber-talented squad in Zebulon. He will move to Nashville from here for his next rehab assignment, but, he sees what we've been seeing in recent weeks: these young men have a lot of exciting and inspired baseball in their futures.
-
Oh man, the lack of replay in the Minors...Jakson Reetz just clearly beat a run down in a pickle between third and home plate but the ump blows the call. Reetz was irate, and rightfully so. It was a close play, but, tie goes to the runner they say. Fear not, I say! Brent Diaz and the bottom of the order continues to do it all. Diaz now with 4 rbi's ropes a single - turned to a double on the throw home - over the leaping attempt of the Biscuits' second baseman. The bottom of the order has now knocked in 7 of 8 runs. Beautiful stuff, men! It's now 8-6 Shuckers in the fifth.
-
Cam Devanney rips a deeeeeep double off the high wall (I don't know how it stayed in the ball park) in left center and, with runners on the corner, he scores Dillard from third. Men on second and third now, with one down, and it's 6-6 in the bottom of the fifth. Gabe Holt is now up to the plate. Devanney and Reetz are on the bags.
-
Holy heck is Abraham Almonte en fuego right now. Goodness gracious, he just jacked a two-run bomb to right field. The ball was down and in but, man, he just flipped those hips and launched it off a window in deep right. The first home run allowed by Mud Hens' reliever Brian Garcia all season. 6-4 Sounds baby!
