You guys should be happy now.

Daytona News-Journal interview with Daytona SS Matt Matulia.

 

Daytona News-Journal story on Matt Matulia, Jerry Blevins and Jon Mueller:

 

The most interesting transformation has been Blevins. The 6-foot-6 lefty has been unreal. Last year, he had an 0-1 record and 9.00 ERA in eight games for Daytona. This year, he's 1-0 with a 0.40 ERA and 30 strikeouts in 22 2/3 innings over 14 games. And he's spotting a fastball that's hitting 92 and 93 mph. That's big-league material.

 

Knoxville News Sentinel[/url]"]Miller Time: Chicago pitcher Wade Miller, who was placed on the disabled list by the Cubs on April 23 because of back spasms, will arrive Monday to begin a rehabilitation assignment with the Smokies.

 

The veteran right-hander will start Tuesday's 11:30 a.m. game against Chattanooga.

 

"I haven't talked to anyone about his pitch count," said Listach, who expects Miller to go three innings. "I'll find out (today)."

 

The 30-year-old from Wyomissing, Pa., signed with the Cubs as a minor league free agent in 2006 and missed most of last season recovering from shoulder surgery. He started three games for the Cubs this season and was 0-1 with a 10.94 earned-run average.

[Warpticon]

The Iowa game has been...interesting. Ronny Cedeno was at bat, and a man scored from 2nd on two consecutive passed balls. Also, Patterson scored on a Pie triple in the second. Iowa is up 10-3 in the 5th.

[Guest]

Micah Hoffpauir and Koyie Hill each have a HR and every I-Cub starter has a hit besides DH Mike Kinkade. Iowa leads it 10-4 in the 5th inning.

 

Peoria is in a rain delay, tied at 1 in the third inning. Renshaw struck out the side in the first inning: 2 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 0 BB.

[Warpticon]

Patterson just homered for the third straight day.

[TruffleShuffle]

Patterson just homered for the third straight day.

 

Yeah, Iowa continues to rake... it's 13-4 with the Cobs having scored 2, 4, 1, 3 and 3 in the first five innings.

 

Patterson 2-4, HR, 2 R, 2 RBI (BA .339)

Pie 2-4, 3B, 1 R, 2 RBI (BA .463)

Fontenot 3-4, 2B, 3 R, 1 RBI (BA .366)

Hoffpauir 3-4, 2B, HR, 2 R, 3 RBI (BA .301)

K. Hill 1-3, BB, HR, 2 R, 3 RBI (BA .321)

 

All in all, 11-19 with 2 2B, 1 3B, 3 HR, 10 R and 11 RBI from the top 5 of the lineup. Good stuff!

[Guest]

Ronny Cedeño is 1/2 with another walk too. And he stayed in after the walk, so it looks like he didn't sprain his ankle this time.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Some up to the second Iowa OPS's:

 

EPatt: .897

Pie: 1.179

Fontenot: 1.047

K. Hill: .846

Hoffpauir: .909

Moore: .690 :(

[Guest]

ANOTHER walk for Ronny! Iowa has the bases loaded on back-to-back-to-back walks by Moore, Cedeño and EPatt. They're up 13-6.

[otis89]

Seriously, just call up EPatt already.

[Warpticon]

Patterson walked to load the bases, and Pie reached on error. Two runs scored. 15-6 is the current score.

[Warpticon]

Fontenot singles Patterson in, Pie to 2nd. Still just 1 out.

[Guest]

Seriously, just call up EPatt already.

 

To do what? Start ahead of DeRosa or Theriot?

 

And this EPatt stat is ugly: 24 K:8 BB.

[Warpticon]

and gameday just went screwy, as it has Pie at bat again. Oh, now Hoffpauir is shown grounding out. Men at first and third, 2 outs. And now Hill singles Pie in. First and second, 2 outs.

 

I wish I was at this game.

[Marco4]

Just got the game on audio: 17-6 at the end of the 6th.

[Guest]

Peoria is back from the rain delay and they promptly put up a 4-spot in the 5th inning.

 

Renshaw stayed in after the delay: 4 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 4 K/0 BB, 1 HBP.

[Guest]

Gosh, Jake Renshaw is on fire. 6 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 6 K/1 BB, 1 HBP. His ERA is down to 1.29. Peoria up 5-1.

[otis89]

Seriously, just call up EPatt already.

 

To do what? Start ahead of DeRosa or Theriot?

 

And this EPatt stat is ugly: 24 K:8 BB.

 

Sorry, all the other people on here are rubbing off on me. I posted that without even thinking. :oops:

[Warpticon]

Patterson walked yet again in the 8th. Final line (most likely): 2/4, 2 BB, HR, 3 R, 2 RBI, 0 K.

 

Pie ends up 3/6 with a triple, 2 runs, 3 RBI, and 1 K.

[TruffleShuffle]

Seriously, just call up EPatt already.

And this EPatt stat is ugly: 24 K:8 BB.

 

Sorry, all the other people on here are rubbing off on me. I posted that without even thinking. :oops:

 

No, you're right... he should be called up :wink:

 

But in all seriousness, he'll likely increase his walk rate, which right now is 9 BB in about 130 PA. But, his rate has been higher in previous season, and I'd expect it to increase. He's probably never going to have a great K/BB, but something around or slightly less than 2:1 can be expected. In (my) perfect world, he'll continue to improve this year at AAA and show that he deserves a spot on next year's club... then DeRosa can be a super-sub or a platoon partner against LHP next year while Patterson plays most of the time against RHP.

Iowa wins it 17-7.
