    Lawrie could go as high as #7 to the Reds. I was asking about them in regards to OTHER teams taking them; I know that there's no info coming out of the Brewers' camp.
  2. battlekow
    What have you heard about Lawrie, Hewitt, Collier, etc?
  3. battlekow
    I love it.

    (SLG - AVG), which measures pure power, since you can get a pretty high slugging percentage simply from hitting a lot of singles (think Ichiro).

    Hey, Brantley hit a homer!

    What's hilarious(ly awesome) to me is that Gamel's ISO is approaching .300, and he's not even leading the team. A list of ISO's at Huntsville: LaPorta - .307 (age 23) Gamel - .287 (22) Braun - .286 (22) Errecart - .247 (23) Gillespie - .232 (24) Katin - .213 (24) Salome - .209 (22) Fielder - .201 (20) Nelson - .180 (21) Hart - .165 (21) Hardy - .149 (20) Weeks - .148 (21) Fielder's is still pretty impressive, due to his age.

    From the most recent Hot Sheet chat, in response to a question about Gamel/Hall:

    I heard that interview live and enjoyed it. I think our first round pick from last year should officially change his name to "LaPorter".

    Aguilar with a shaky ninth in his third appearance as a Star.

    Brantley: 3-6, 2 R, 1 RBI Escobar: 3-6, 3 R Gamel: 2-4, 2 R, 2 RBI, 1 2B, 2 BB Salome: 3-4, 3 R, 6 RBI, 1 HR, 2 BB LaPorta: 3-5, 2 R, 1 RBI, 3 2B, 1 BB Gillespie: 3-5, 3 RBI, 1 2B, 1 BB Dios mio.

    Iribarren was on the team in 2005.
  12. battlekow
    A four-run inning with no contribution from Gamel. Just doesn't feel right.

    Team splits would normally be available, but Jeff is working on some site upgrades, so they're not up right now. 2006-07 splits are currently unavailable as well.
  14. battlekow
    Those are actually John's own personal picks, and different from the collaborative mock draft I linked to (the title is unfortunately unclear).
  15. battlekow
    Away.
  16. battlekow
    Hopefully Milwaukeeans appreciate LaPorta more than Philadelphians do Burrell.
  17. battlekow
    There is no way in hell Kyle Long is going at #16.

    I think that something interesting to take into consideration is what to do with Lorenzo Cain. In my opinion, he deserves a shot at AA to see what he can do, but Gillespie and LaPorta are firmly entrenched as the incumbents. I suppose it depends on the organizational philosophy; if they really do consider AAA a dumping ground for mediocre veteran talent, then maybe they want to bump up the lesser of the two prospects (Gillespie) and keep LaPorta stable and working on his defense in a productive, positive environment. If they really do see AAA as a step up, then obviously you bump up LaPorta. But Cain needs a promotion.

    Jeffress will make the top 100 barring meltdown, Braddock has a chance to, but Donovan Hand? Hand is a fun guy to cheer for, but he would have to throw four perfect games and have an ERA under 1 to make top 100 lists. [EDIT] Nevermind, you figured the same and edited him out http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  20. battlekow
    The fact that Cain actually possesses a smattering of power. Brantley is simply not going to be able to walk much in the Major Leagues without any power. Is he young enough to develop power? Absolutely. Is his plate discipline good? Of course. But just because he walks a bunch and never strikes out doesn't mean much absent any power.
  21. battlekow
    Flanagan said he shows signs of having a good slider though, so it's not like he's going on nothing. The rest of this year at AA will tell a lot about his future.
  22. battlekow
    Anyone know why Anundsen left the game in the middle of the fifth?
  23. battlekow
    Indeed. Thanks so much, CJ.
  24. battlekow
    You're a really charming guy.

    OBP does not directly translate to the Majors.
