Forgive me, but has Daigle really been knocking the crap out of the ball or what? I don't have too much time to follow all the minor league action. Stats alone, the guy looks amazing.

Any info from anyone would be appreciated.

EDIT: Voodoo, I saw a past thread. Can you give an information on how he is progressing, background, or anything you can gather from seeing him play?

Anderson: 2-5, R, .286 (average climbing back up) I had noticed, through these threads and ma_deuce's sig, that Anderson's average had been on the decline lately. Just a little slump I assume? Anything more/specific?

[BigEdWalsh]

Daigle has been red hot. The thing about him is that he's 25 years playing in High A. He'll be 26 in September and he's not considered a "prospect". Regardless, the guy is hitting and IMO deserves a promotion. Move him up to Charlotte and see what he does. Heck, they're currently playing guys like Roosevelt Brown, Ricky Gutierrez and Greg Norton. Daigle has earned a shot.
As for Anderson, he's moved through the system fast. He slumped just a bit and needs to cut down the strikeouts, but he's doing OK.

Has Malone gotten his velocity back? I've heard he's back on form. Can anybody confirm?

He's still getting there, but he'd back to throwing in the 90's, 92-94. Most of the way back to where he was prior to injury...
