    But is he a fighter and a hard worker? He graduated from The Hun School. Take that as you will.

    Props tonight to Steve Garrison and Ryan Crew. As many of you know, Garrison was one of my favorite picks from last year's draft due to his amazingly simple and clean lefty delivery. He repeats his delivery better than most college pitchers, and he's finding success because of it as a 19-year-old in A-ball. Every outing is better than the last. I'm not going to proclaim him the next Inman or Gallardo because he frankly doesn't have the stuff of either, but he's a gamer and a smart kid. I promised myself I wouldn't bring up Jaime Moyer, but, you know. Ryan Crew has done nothing but be solid all year. He plays a bunch of different positions (including short) solidly, and he's not an ultra-old college guy - he turns 23 on the last day August. If he can continue to show solid defense and a knack for the strike zone, he may quickly turn himself into a legit utility prospect, ala a much younger and more physically gifted Chris Barnwell.

    Nice game so far for Irabarren. 3 for 5 with 3 rbi's. By the way, how do you pronounce his last name? I've always wondered. Sort of like "eerie-barren" only with clipped latin r's.

    Is Mark Rogers good little run overwith?
  5. And That
    Is it: "The righty tossed eight scoreless innings..." or "Jenkins focused on RBIs"?
  6. And That
    A lot of managers would have left him out there. That doesn't matter. Up by six, not a 1- or 2- hitter, no reason to put him back out there.
  7. And That
    Prince should have scooped that.
  8. And That
    I don't think Turnbow is the right play either. I'd go with Wise, try to get him back on track.
  9. And That
    Not to say it was self-efficacy, but yah, they should have taken him out.
  10. And That
    Capuano still out there? I don't know about the thinking behind this.
  11. And That
    Gallardo finishes with 7 innings, allowing only four hits and a walk, whilst striking out 6. No runs, earned or otherise. Yes, sir.
  12. And That
    Yovanni Gallardo is good. Very, very good. I know, I know, he only throws 93, his slider is only in the low 80's and he only has a simple drop and drive delivery, but he sure can pitch.
  13. And That
    Three things about Helena: 1) Steve Chapman is going to dominate this league. 2) Where is Sanduan Dubose? He should be in Helena now, with no offense to Fredy de la Cruz, who is a solid prospect. For that matter, where is Adam Mannon? 3) Helena will have better pitching in the second half as the DFEs and Jeffries arrive in full force. Braddock and Ramlow will take over the rotation. Mercedes will also be a solid presence. They'll get into the playoffs in the second half.
  14. And That
    Elmer Dessens has, and always will, own us.
  15. And That
    Nice line by Hendrickson through 6. Hendrickson was also pulled after 6 despite a very Dillard-esque start.
  16. And That
    Am I crazy, or did Mark McLemore start on the mound for Round Rock against Nashville tonight?
  17. And That
    Kershner could have had a clause in his contract that he had the option to be released come a point in the season if he hadn't seen time in the bigs.
  18. And That
    But does this Chuckie hack on 2-0? No, he's Holden'.
  19. And That
    Brevard just lost 2-0, knocking them out of the first-half playoff picture. That's a shame - at the beginning of the year I thought they were locks to get into the playoffs early.
  20. And That
    Caufield is a quick, hit the ball in the dirt and run type of guy. He got pushed out of CF by someone else this year, so I don't take that as a glowing endorsement of his defense, but he is fast.
  21. And That
    and you guys are listening to dead air from Helena? That's why they call me "Mr. Exciting" Toby, have you ever seen Mercedes or Pascual or them? Since I haven't been down to spring training in a few years, unfortunately no, I haven't. I have some good information on both of them from a trustworthy source, though, so I'm not going solely on stats/signing bonuses in my awe of them. Also, what about Perierd? I haven't heard much about Periard. I liked him because he threw 86-87 as a 16 year old when they drafted him, but I can't say much about his progress since then.
  22. And That
    I'll be happy with a couple of innings. Then you're going to want to pop some Xanax.
  23. And That
    Your 2 for 2 on predictions tonite. care to predict a brewers offensive outburst? In terms of weeks or years?
  24. And That
    If there's a silver lining to this game, it's that we get to see Charlie V. get some extended work and maybe, just maybe, get to see Chris Barnwell's debut.
  25. And That
    Doug, you missed Mercedes strike out Gerardo Parra. What a shame, what a shame. I've heard about three blips of noise, but nothing permanent yet.
