Ill take a 25-30 cumulative WAR player at the age of 30...

And a low to mid 3's xFIP with more than 9k's per 9 innings while being terrible.

I was going to wait until the offseason but I wouldn't mid the Cubs making a run at him in the offseason.

Rosscup must be amazing if he struck out Memphis' Mike O'Neill (33 K in 527 PA)

Meh, his K/9 at Iowa is down to 21.6.

justin marra has 3 home runs in 2 games. i remember being intrigued by his upside, but he's really done jack [expletive] since being drafted.

 

kevin encarnacion is 4-4 with a double and home run. (ping: WSR)

 

paul blackburn wasn't good, but didn't give up any runs (6 bb and 2 k in 5 innings)

What has happened to Gretzky since he made it to KC?

[Little Slide Rooter]

Scott Baker is starting for KC.

 

Why?

Because they'll actually play

 

That was more a why bother with him than a why's he starting at KC.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Rock Shoulders hit his first home run since Darius Rucker called himself Hootie.

After another Olt for 2, Mike's Iowa line is .119/.198/.219. Can't imagine what it would be if not for that one game where he had his offensive explosion. He's like the opposite of one of those guys who torch AAA in their 3rd shot.

Maybe he started using a baseball bat instead of a hockey stick.
