Nick Hull (7th rounder) and Matthew Peters (12th rounder) made their pro debuts today in the ACL.

 

Hull: 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K

Peters: 0.1 IP, 1 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 1 K

 

No Cristian Hernández or Pedro Ramírez. Wonder if they are headed to Myrtle Beach.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

PCA has been picked off first twice through 3 innings.

[TruffleShuffle]

canario so far has a single and a walk in his iowa debut.

 

herz was terrible again but his ERA actually went down, and is now below 11.

PCA has been picked off first twice through 3 innings.

 

Not great, but he is 3 for 5 tonight.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Alcantara has had 4-5 games off this month, presumably to try to keep him from physically wearing down given his frame and the fact his previous career high was 41 games/174 PA in a season. It seems like it's working, these last 2 weeks he's 11 for 32.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

PCA has been picked off first twice through 3 innings.

 

After this go-ahead single in the top of the 10th, PCA had his third TOOTBLAN of the game, getting thrown out trying to go first to third on a wild pitch.

 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Killian pitched well again.

Also at Iowa today:

 

- Canario is 1-2, 2BB, 1K

- Hill is 2-4, 2 3B

 

I'd really like to drop Ortega and give Hill a chance to show he's worth rostering.
