Smokies doubleheader rained out.

It seems like there haven't been many days so far where all the games have actually been played.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Kane County postponed, lol.

[Guest]

huh...it's gorgeous right now in Naperville.

The team is playing in Cleveland.

That makes more sense. :)

Brett with his 1st HR.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Baez has a homer already, too.

Baez has a homer already, too.

And another error, is he making an alarming amount? Or is his the typical lower minors amount?

Both? It's typical of young SS's, and also typical of young SS's to not make it as SS's.

Half(well, 4 of 9) of his errors are throwing errors that have come in the last 10 days since they've been forced to stick stone hands Geiger at 1B after Bour broke his wrist. I'd chalk that up to him having zero help at the other end of the throw, while still needing to work on consistency like we'd expect.

Yeah, I'm really hoping he can stick though. In this era if he can stick and reaches his potential, he's so rare.

Cool, I didn't even think to check that. When I saw him in Peoria last year I thought the arm would play well.

[davell]

Daytona's field is one of the worst in all the minor leagues too, unless things have changed in yhe last year. I wouldn't worry too much about errors.

FYI, Bour was at Tennessee all season before his injury. Geiger has been the primary 1B at Daytona all season.

Well that's what I get for going off memory.

 

All the more reason to not be super worried about high error totals. Geiger is terrible with a glove in his hands.

[Guest]

Yeah. I couldn't care less about Baez's errors, honestly. I just want to see his average go up, his K's go down, and some semblance of an ability to take a walk.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Anyone have Javy's slash over the last 10 games?

[MWV]

I see .341/.354/.614 dating back to April 16 (10 games, not including today, 48 PA).

[Little Slide Rooter]

Ian Stewart with 3 walks. Brett with 1; and 0 Strikeouts!

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

I wonder when the last time Brett had six PA without striking out.

3rd grade PE pickleball

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

btw, today's game brought his K% to 29.2. That's a pretty momentous occasion for him.
