I hope we get some velo readings on Clarke today. There were some his first game back and they were bad, but it was his first game back so that's understandable. The results have been good so far but they're hard to buy into if he's throwing 91-92.

nelson velasquez donged again, his third in two nights (and he has 5 in his first 10 games at the AA level).

FYI, he goes by Nelly now...which means the jokes practically write themselves when he's hot.
