In the bottom right corner of the MiLB.com main page, you can vote for Mark Holliman as the top pitcher in April. Holliman is the leading vote-getter right now with 92 more votes than second-place Tim Lincecum.

Which is crazy. Lincecum has been better and that is saying a lot, since Mark has been nails as well.

[BDWeav71]

Lets go Mark!

And Mark

[Flames24Rulz]

Daytona up 3-2 in the 4th. Samardzija had a rough 1st, but has done better since: 4 innings, 7 hits, 2 runs, 3 K's/0 BB's, 1 HR.

 

Peoria's offense is struggling tonight. Only 3 hits through 7 and the Chiefs are down 2-0. Carrillo had a good start going 5 innings and only allowing 2 hits, walked 2, and struck out 2.

[Flames24Rulz]

Peoria is headed to extras after tying the game at 2 in the top of the 9th. DJ Lewis had an RBI single that scored Canzler and Yusuf had a sac fly that scored Castillo.

 

Daytona up 6-5 in the 7th. Rough outing for Samardzija tonight: 5 IP, 11 hits, 5 runs, 3 K's/0 BB's, 1 HR. He pitched to three batters in the 6th and gave up hits to all of them. Amador has a 2-run homer and Colvin is 1/4 with a double.

 

Iowa is pouring it on, 8-2 in the 4th. EPatt hit his 2nd HR of the season, a 2-run shot, in the 4th. Every position player has a hit except Soto and Pagan. Soto is the only I-Cub to not reach base.

 

Tennessee up 6-1 in the 4th. Holliman: 3 IP, 4 hits, 1 run, 2 K's/0 BB's. Matt Craig hit a 3-run HR in the 1st and has 4 RBI's total. Every Smokie has a hit except Dope and Robinson.

[Flames24Rulz]

Peoria lost 3-2 in 11. Papelbon gives up the winning run on two hits in the 11th.

 

Daytona now tied at 6 in the bottom of the 8th.

 

Iowa now only up 8-6 in the 6th. O'Malley has struggled, but hasn't had any help from his defense: 5 IP, 6 hits, 6 runs, 3 ER, 0 K's/3 BB's.

 

Tennessee now up 9-1 in the 5th. Craig now has 5 RBI's and Jake Fox is 2/3 with an RBI. Dopirak has a double, so Robinson is the only player without a hit.

[Flames24Rulz]

Daytona wins 7-6 in 10. Colvin won it with an RBI single :D He finished 2/6 with a double and the RBI to win the game. Harvey was 2/4 with a double, a walk, and a run scored. Every D-Cub had a hit except Matulia. Five players had multi-hit games.

 

Iowa won 9-6. O'Malley got the win: 6 IP, 7 hits, 6 runs, 3 earned, 0 K's/3 BB's. EPatt had a real good game going 3/4 with a homer, 2 RBI's, a walk, and 2 runs scored. He did commit his 4th error of the season. Buck Coats and Scott Moore each had 3 hits as well. Fontenot was 2/5 with an RBI.

 

Tennessee is ripping apart Birmingham, 15-1 in the 8th. The Smokies have pounded out 19 hits so far. Every player has at least one hit and 7 players have two or more hits. Matt Craig has 6 RBI's, Jake Fox is 3/4 with a double and 2 RBI's, and Fuld is 3/6. Dope is 2/5 with a double.

[Flames24Rulz]

Tennessee wins 16-1 :shock:

 

Holliman went 6, allowing 6 hits, 1 run, 4 K's/1 BB. Another solid effort for Mark. Fox finished 3/6 with a double and 2 RBI's. Dope also finished 3/6 with a double.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Kitt Kopach is out for the year with shoulder surgery.

[sunnydoo]

With the SP doing as badly as it is in Iowa, cant be long now until Holliman gets called up.

 

Would like to see the kid pitch for myself, but havent had the opportunity. I wonder if he has anything and where he is topping out speed wise with his 3 pitches.

Holliman's not getting called up anytime soon. This is his first real success as a professional, and most importantly he's not on the 40 man roster.

[don_kessinger_was_good]

Can someone post the up-to-date stats so far on Fox and Colvin? With Pie in the bigs, these two are the position players I'm most interested in.

 

Unrelated--if the Cubs could trade Izturis, is there any reason Fontenot couldn't be a reserve infielder at the ML level? He seems to hit OK, and I think he can play both 2B and 3B, right?

Didn't Holliman pitch very well in Daytona last season, then hit a wall? Or am I confusing him with someone else?

He may have meant getting promoted to Iowa, not all the way to the Cubs. That doesn't require him being on the 40-man roster.

That's right, I overstated. He did nothing like he has this year though.
