[Named After Maddux]

Well Tyson Miller had an excellent game (7 shutout ip, 3 h, 7/1 k/bb) so if he’s turned a corner this season that would be a nice development.

[Tim]

Tseng with 7er in 5ip with 5bb is less than good.

[Tim]

oh, nice.

 

Clifton got pulled after throwing 40 pitches in 0.2ip today. Why is he in a rotation?

I had not noticed just how well he has been doing so far this year. Good stuff.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

oh, nice.

I don’t think there’s anyone in AA deserving of his spot but Matt Swarmer might be ready for the promotion.

This is the most boring the farm system has been since the Brett Jackson/Josh Vitters days.
