6/14 games

[maurice]

Kanny won 6-2. Another solid (but short) start for Russell: 5 IP, 2 R, 7 H, 3 BB, 1 K. Moat followed with 3 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 0 BB, 3 K. Zaleski finished up in a non-save situation. In a surprising turn of events, Cook K'ed 3 times but still managed to knock in a run with a SF. Hansen homered, walked, and scored twice. King also scored twice after being walked and HBP. Ricks played 2B again and had 3 hits. With the addition of Lucy, I doubt he'll see much (if any) time behind the plate. Speaking of Lucy, he's heating up nicely: 2-3, 2 RBI, SB. Castillo has been playing 3B recently. He was 1-3, BB, RBI.

BMac starts for Charlotte tonight. I'm guessing it'll be Lubisich for B'ham and Whisler for W-S.

The Knights are losing 3-2 through 4. BMac with 6 Ks.

The Barons trail 1-0 early.

The 'Hogs are in a shootout, leading 12-7 in the 4th. Whisler was knocked out in the 1st, but Lopez came in and shut them down. Collaro with a 2B, HR, and 5 RBI already!

The Knights still trail 3-2 through 7. BMac's final line: 6 IP, 3 R (all in the 4th), 5 H, 2 BB, 7 K. The other Josh Fields has an inning of scoreless relief.

The Barons are down 2-0 in the 4th.

The 'Hogs now lead 18-11 in the bottom of the 6th. Frederick finally got to Lopez in his 4th inning of work, but Hernandez followed with 2 scoreless innings for W-S. Collaro hit another dinger and has 7 RBI so far. Lee, Hall, and Molina also with a HR each.

The Hogs are up 21-12 in the 8th. Daigle has hit for the cycle. He's homered in 6 stright games now. Daigle is 5-6 in this game.

Knights lose 3-2 in dramatic fashion. Anderson K'ed with the bases loaded in the 9th.

Alright, that's it. Call him up to the majors.

How many days are left in the first half of the season for the minors?

Also, does anyone know anything about Carlos Lee's bro, Carlos in 'A' ball? Is he a prospect or a career minor-leaguer?

2-0 was the final in B'ham. The Barons managed only 5 hits (including 2 each by Gonzo and Sweeney) and committed 2 errors (both by Gray). Fields remained benched. He's not in the lineup today (6/15) either.

21-12 (3 TDs v. 4 FGs) was the final in W-S. Valido 4-5, 2B, BB, 3 R. Collaro 4-6, 2 2B, 2 HR, 3 R, 7 RBI. Lee 2-5, HR, BB, R, 2 RBI.

Not a real prospect.

FYI, this is Daigle's 6th full season in A-ball, and he has one full season in AA as well.

He's at least as good as Casey Rogowski and Nook Logan!"

That was absolute bafoonery. How the heck should I react to statement like that.

Then again, it's just because I disagree so I crap on that idea/poster... I don't see the other side of the coin... yadda yadda yadda

I have little patience for that level of ignorance and pure stupidity.
