That makes much more sense. Beloit is IN Wisconsin, not AT Wisconsin. :D

Wisconsin has their own MWL team.

Wisconsin has their own MWL team.

I didn't realize that; since I'm in North Carolina, I don't pay that much attention to the MWL except for Peoria. But that's much like Tennessee in the Southern League.

[otis89]

I'm going to the Chiefs game today!

[CaliforniaRaisin]

I'm going to the Chiefs game today!

 

You'll get to see yourself pitch!

 

Probable Starters:

 

Daytona: LHP Donnie Veal (1-0, 0.00 ERA, 18.2 IP, 13/8, 1.02 WHIP)

Peoria: RHP Scott Taylor: (4-4, 3.26 ERA, 77.1 IP, 32/15, 1.22 WHIP) vs. LHP Ryan Mullins (2-3, 4.23 ERA)

Boise: RHP Mike Billek (0-0, 4.50 ERA, 4 IP, 2/0, 1.00 WHIP) @ RHP Eric Butler (2-1, 2.75 ERA)

Yep. That's why I chose today to go.

[NCCubFan]

THE DON!

 

Hopefully he can keep up his 0.00 ERA for Daytona.

[Brian]

The Don so far - 5.0IP 2H, 2BB, 3K

 

In the Southern League All Star Game, Mateo started the game and went 1 inning giving up 1 hit and getting 1 strike out, no runs. Walker and Moore are 1 for 2 with Moore's hit driving in a run.

Veal gave up his first ER in the 6th. :x

me = jinx :(

[Jon]

Yay the Don.

 

Daytona is beating the snot out of Vero Beach thanks to a 7-run 5th. Spears, Spearman, Simokaitis, and Harvey all have two hits. 9-0 after 5.

 

Taylor is doing pretty well so far. 1 run through 5 on 4 hits, 0 BBs, and 3 Ks.

I had just tuned in - it could have been me.

[Jon]

The Don: 5.2 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 3 BB, 4 K, 9-4 GO-FO

 

Raisin's favorite Vero Beach pitcher, Bastardo, got the start and gave up 5 runs (4 earned).

 

9-2 Datyona late.

 

Taylor was great tonight. 8 IP, 7 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 5 K, 9-10 GO-FO, WP. They lead 3-1 late. Carter hit his 7th HR of the season.

[texascub]

I'm glad that The Don is starting to get that go-fo number in line. It seems like his control was a bit off tonight but still a good outing.

[Brian]

Finals on DJaxx in the All Star game

 

EPatt - 0-1 (two days in a row Eric only gets 1 AB :()

Walker - 1-3

Scott Moore - 3-4, 2HR 4RBI with a walk :D :D

Negron 0-2

 

Mateo - 1IP, 1H, 1K, winning pitcher

Shaver - 1IP, 4H, 1R, 1K

Rocky Cherry - 1IP, perfect

[Brian]

Papelbon either has filthy stuff or he's too advanced for Boise. he's pitched a 1-2-3 inning with 3 K's so far.

 

update

 

2.2IP, 1H, 5K, 1BB

Is Papelbon related to the Papelbon that is on Boston? Or is it just the same last name.

Interesting...Thanks for the info.

[NCCubFan]

It would be interesting if eventually three teams each had one of the Papelbons pitching and one of the Molinas catching. :D

OK. I'm back. Notes from the Chiefs game.

 

The radar gun wasn't working, so I have no idea what kind of arm Taylor has. What impressed me the most about his outing was no walks. It's very rare to see a Cubs pitcher not named Maddux do that. He also reminded me of Maddux when he made a nice play on a ball hit right back to him. Norwood is a big guy and he made a nice play at first on a fairly sharply hit grounder. Carter made a nice running catch in right field and flexed his muscles with a home run just to the left of straightaway center. I'd guess it went around 400 feet. That's all I can think of right now. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

As far as you could tell, did Taylor throw many breaking balls or changeups? Did he throw curveball (easier to recognize)? If not, maybe he's a fastball/slider guy?

 

How did Avery look? Hard to tell, and they are probably both somewhere around 90, so probably can't really tell. But if you had to guess, between Taylor and Avery, which would you guess threw harder?

 

Does Carter look like an ordinary guy? Or does he obviously look stronger than other guys?

 

Thanks. too bad no radar.
