  1. I think I just got Prince into tomorrow's Minor League Update on BP.
  2. Hell, he might as well try to steal home at this point.
  3. Trejo's now equaled his walk total at Wisconsin in two games at Helena. Prince is on first again. I can't wait.
  4. Eh, it was his first game back. I'm sure he was just trying to figure everything out again. I wouldn't worry about the numbers too much; at least he only walked one guy.
  5. Yeah, but Doug managed to neglect to mention the kid's name.
  6. Wendt very complimentary about Garfield's ball-blocking ability. No word on how good he is at $!*+-blocking.
  7. Haha, Prince with his fourth steal of the game. EDIT: Prince continues his daring baserunning, barely safe at third advancing on an error by the shortstop.
  8. Wendt just said he had blister/nerve problems in his bullpen the other day and that he threw 32 pitches in his inning.
  9. I just tuned in. What was the result of all that? Is he okay? They just said Ben Jeffers is warming up.
  10. Garfield extends his hitting streak to two with a double.
  11. And there goes the interestingness.
  12. If Dillard's game continues to be, uh, interesting, you can actually watch it for a fee.
  13. Figures that Whiteside would be the only guy to pitch effectively for the Manatees.
  14. Cameron Garfield's perfect career is over.
  15. Odorizzi's getting hammered now.
  16. Brett Whiteside now pitching in his third game of the year. I guess he's become the official mop-up guy.
  17. Josh Prince reached on an error to lead off the first for Helena and then promptly stole second and third and scored on a groundout.
  18. Whoops, I jinxed Welch. The walkathon has continued for BC, with Lluberes issuing three in 1.1 innings so far. Bit of a shaky first inning for Odorizzi with two walks and hit allowed, resulting in a run. He did notch a K. No Dykstra again. Injured?
  19. Braddock overcoming physical, mental hurdles Adam McCalvy Brewers pitching prospect Zach Braddock has been healthy this season, both in body and mind, and some promising results have followed. The Brewers promoted Braddock to Double-A Huntsville on Wednesday after the left-hander posted a 1.14 ERA and 40 strikeouts versus just four walks in 14 relief appearances at Class A Brevard County. Opponents hit .143 against the hard-throwing Braddock. Braddock has been limited by physical injuries since the Brewers drafted him in the 18th round of the 2005 Draft and by a bipolar disorder that requires medication. But in terms of pure "stuff," he's a bona fide Major League prospect. "He can dominate," Brewers assistant general manager Gord Ash said. "There have been a number of reports this year [that say] he could pitch in the big leagues. He has that kind of dominating stuff. Obviously, being left-handed helps. It's a matter of being consistent, like it is with a lot of young guys." Assuming he stays physically and mentally healthy, Braddock could move fast through the system. He turns 22 on Aug. 23. "Which is why we moved him to Double-A, to get him to that next level," Ash said. Club officials help "monitor" Braddock, Ash said. That involves making sure he takes the proper medication at the proper time. "He's in a very good spot," Ash said. "He's monitored, and he's had no issues at all. ... He's in a good place."
  20. Tons of updates from Adam McCalvy in his latest blog entry, including some of the stuff mentioned above, and also that Chris Capuano is on schedule to pitch in game in late August.
  21. Rapoza comes in and walks two guys in his first inning. Meanwhile, Dunedin's starter has no walks in three innings. EDIT: Rapoza ended up being even worse than Bowman. Six runs in 1.2 innings? Yeesh. And David Welch has allowed eight hits in four innings but just an unearned run so far, thanks to no walks.
  22. Bad scene for Michael Bowman so far: five runs in two innings.
  23. Bob Miscik will be a coach for the U.S. team in the Futures Game.
  24. My interview with Jordan Wong.
