O'Rae makes a fantastic diving play to initiate a double play, though a run scores. Next man pops out but it's a brand new ball game heading into the 9th, Those walks are killers,
Ryan Birchard with 3+ of work. Book not closed on him yet, but as it stands he had no runs or hits, 4 strikeouts and 6(!!) walks. Broca in now for the bottom of the 8th
Eric Brown Jr is one of those guys with whom you just can't help but wonder what could have been if they'd put it all together. 0-4 today with 3 strikeouts and 6 left on base.
How else could it end? Meneses with yet another fast ball right down the middle for a K and the game.
Wilson has a 1.000 all-time winning percentage!!!
Wilson scores another on an errant pick off but the inning ends as Ortuno is tagged out trying to get to third.
2-0 bottom of the 9th, Meneses is staying in to close
Aw man I love KC. Woodward gets plugged into the pitching lab and something wonderful comes out a few weeks from now.
As far as I know he is not on the 40 so no need for any drastic moves yet.
87-75. Should be enough for the playoffs.
MVP: Chourio
CY: Miz
ROY: One of the pitchers (Gasser/Hendo/Sproat)
Surprising player: Joey-O. I think he can bounce back and be at least average.
Disappointment: Mitchell (injuries) or Vaugh (cant repeat last year's magic)
I'd guess Rodriguez? I would love to see Wood but with less than 60 AA games under his belt he may go back to Biloxi at least early on.
I don't believe in Miller as much as Harold Hutchinson does but he does have more AA experience and is probably better acquainted with some of the guys who will be in Nashville's staff.
