I wonder if Ivan Pineyro is ready to be bumped back to Tennessee to start game two of the Smokies' doubleheader.

 

Yay:

Russell hit in the helmet with a fastball, he's ok but shook up understandably

He's going to be the best of them all.

Should we be intrigued at all by Eric Jokisch? I'm guessing he doesn't have great stuff, since he's rarely mentioned around here. However, his numbers look very similar to Hendricks at Iowa this year. Low BB numbers, decent K numbers.

Awesome thanks!

This is why I was wondering why everyone was so down on him in the offseason. The dude just oozes talent. If he can stay on the field he's a top 10 prospect IMO possibly top 3

Soler came into today with a 1.235 OPS across his three levels, 1.131 in Iowa. Also, he's 22.

Intrigued? Sure, but I'm doubting he winds up as anything more than Rusin. If we don't add him to the 40man this offseason, someone will take him.

Soler walks in his second at bat
