While I wish I spent more time in the actual game threads than in here, these got pretty fun to follow the last few months and we all really appreciate the time you put into this.

i've said it before but i have never in my life managed to do anything as consistently as navin gets these threads up every day

Ben Brown will be facing arguably the best pitching prospect in baseball:

 

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Going out in style

 

[CaliforniaRaisin]

 

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Canario #37. Two away from the minors lead.

Iowa’s season ends this way:

 

[CubinNY]

Thank you, Navin!

 

Go Smokies!

[CaliforniaRaisin]

With 2 outs in the 3rd, no one on and down 2-0 to arguably the best pitching prospect in baseball, the Smokies went:

 

Vázquez IF single + advance to second on an E-6

Davis BB.

Slaughter IF single

Perlaza RBI BB

Maldonado 2-run single

 

3-2 Smokies going to the 4th. (All 9 of Eury Pérez outs have been Ks.)

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Ben Brown’s final line: 4 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 6 K, 1 WP on 76 pitches.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Second straight night the Smokies bullpen gives up a crooked number while clinging to a 1-run lead: Blake Whitney gave up a grand slam after an E-3 and 2 walks.

 

Tennessee down 6-3 going to the bottom of the 5th.

[Bertz]

Ben Brown’s final line: 4 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 6 K, 1 WP on 76 pitches.

 

He is going to be an absolute monster after he gets pitch labbed this winter.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Smokies lost 11-4.

Any chance Canario gets a taste of the big leagues this last week since he’s already on the 40 man?

What a fun season. Thanks for all the threads, and links Cal. And all the other video links and discussion from everybody. Man it's been so fun and interesting, so many stories. I wish it wasn't over, and look forward to a lot of stories continuing next season!

[Donzo]

Another season in the books. Great job as always, Raisin!

 

I think it was a very good season for the system. A lot of prospects across the board. I don't remember the system ever having this many legitimate pitching prospects. I don't see the Wood/Prior ace types, but a whole bunch guys that project as plus MLB pitchers.
