I only listened to the Daytona game for the 1st inning (listening to the Jaxx game right now) but apparently, Hagerty was lifted after only 1 1/3 IP. His final line: 3 runs allowed, 1 earned, 1 hit, 2 K's, 2 HBP's, and the big one 4 BB's. I was hoping he would rebound from his rough first start, but he had absolutely no control today.

 

Daytona down 3-0, Peoria is scoreless, Jaxx still lead 1-0.

Hagerty, 1.1IP, 1H, 3R, 1ER, 4BB, 2K 15.00 ERA.

 

Ouch

 

Plus the 2 HBP, this is not good for Hagerty, if there was speculation of Veal being at Daytona to start the year, it is far fetched, but someone might go up to Daytona (not necessarily Veal) to make room for a certain young lefty from Utah @ Peoria.

How funny would it have been if that ball left the yard and tied the game as Ron was talking about 3 runs being enough?

 

:lol:

that would've been extremely ironic :lol: Ron's right though, 3 runs should be enough based on how the Jaxx pitching staff has pitched this year up to this point.

 

Let's hope they can string together a few more hits and runs though to pad the insurance.

Shaver has been perfect for 2.2 since Hagerty left, 4 K's, 4 groundouts. He was pretty much perfect pitching long in Hagerty's other start, too. Could just pop him in Hagerty's spot. Or Blasko. Or I suppose they could give Weber a shot, although he seems perhaps over his head in A+.

 

Veal seems way wild for A-, can't see it making much sense to bump him up. Billek doesn't seem very good, struggling again tonight as a flyball pitcher with no K-stuff. Atkins and Blackford seem too young and raw to fit for a jump to A+. I don't really see anybody who's advanced enough and having success at Peoria to merit a promotion. I suppose Yepez might be the closest thing.

 

Harvey with two more K's in his first two AB. He's got 10 K's thus far in 19AB. I know for years the hope has been that with some coaching or shortening his swing or something or other he might be salvagable.

 

But given his arm, I wonder if it might not be a favor to him to consider moving him to the mound sooner rather than later. There had been talk that pre-draft he was viewed as having very high-round potential as a pitcher.

 

I know it's not going to happen, and they'll let him whiff away his career for at least this year and next regardless, he's that strong when he occassionally does hit it. But it's pretty tough to see him ever hitting.

Clay Rapada is coming in the 7th inning for the Jaxx with 2 outs. Kind of weird to see a closer in there that early.
