Holy crap, Little:

Brendon Little 6.0 3 0 0 1 9 0 5.03

 

Before his injury, he was on a nice little run. Good to see him get back on track.

[davell]

Amaya is 2-4 with a homer

[Tim]

Jhonny Pereda hits one, too.

[TomtheBombadil]

Ademan had an active day today going 2/4 with a couple walks, the game tying RBI, and the potential game winning run scored. A HR or three would really nice, but the Hope he may one day believe in his full potential survives another day.

[Hrubes20]

Holy crap, Little:

Brendon Little 6.0 3 0 0 1 9 0 5.03

 

Where the hell did that come from? More, please.

[TomtheBombadil]

You have to think this is the guy Theo envisioned when drafting him. No doubt Theo saw a guy capable of dominating full season hitters and on this day Little did just that.

 

Nelson Velazquez is hitting first and playing CF for the Emeralds.

[Tim]

Albertos through 2ip with 4k and 0bb

[ScrubMD]

As soon as I become a True Believer in Robinson, he goes and poops on the mound.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Albertos through 2ip with 4k and 0bb

 

4 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 5 K, 2 HBP, 69-38 pitches-strikes

 

aka his best start of the year.

Justin Steele with his second rehab start in the AZL.

Baby steps I guess. Under 50% strikes again though

Long weekend...... brain isn’t functioning 100%. But hopefully this is a start of a corner turned

[Hrubes20]

Brennen Davis hasn’t played since June 27th. Not good at all for a player who had injury concerns pre-draft.

[Donzo]

A lot of good stuff... Little with an excellent start, he's had few of those now... Ademan hitting .300 over the last ten games. I expect his 2nd half should be much better than his 1st half. I predict his OPS will be .150 points higher the 2nd half.

Yeah, after essentially skipping levels twice in his short career, it's all about the 2nd half for Ademan.

Rehab day for AZ1. Corey Black gets into his second outing.

[CubsWin]

Ha! Eugene scores 4 in the bottom of the 9th for a walk off win in a very unique fashion. A Nico Hoerner walk, a Sierra single, a sac fly, two ground rule doubles and a Hillsboro Hops manager ejection later and score was tied 3-3. Fernando Kelli came in to pitch run for the guy on 2nd. A new pitcher was brought in to face Jonathan Soto who never put his bat on the ball. Wild pitch, Kelli to 3rd. Wild pitch, Kelli scores. Game over.

[CubsWin]

Rehab day for AZ1. Corey Black gets into his second outing.

It's nice to see these guys back. Corey has had an especiallly difficult/unlucky time of it.

 

Is the turnaround time for TJS getting shorter? Steele was injured August 1st of last year. The operation probably didn't happen for a week or two after that and he was back pitching in games (albeit rehab games in Mesa) within a little over 10 months. Is that schedule common place now?
