I'm going to Rancho Cucamonga tomorrow for the Quakes game. It will be my first minor league game, I'm excited to see Brandon Wood and Howie Kendrick. Edited August 27, 2005 by CaliforniaRaisin

Too Bad you missed Mason/Ireland day a caouple of days back. I hear it was a doozy.

[Brian]

Don't forget this is the 2nd supposed Felix Pie return game if I recall what I read in the fine Chicago newspapers correctly. :roll:

[T2E]

The final three games of the series between Iowa and New Orleans have been cancelled due to the approaching hurricane.

I regret to inform you that Kendrick is no longer in Rancho. He's up in Arkansas and doing quite well. Wood you will get to see.

You might as well cancel your subscription now. Pie will not be playing for West tenn today.

Funny how these games were re-scheduled to this weekend because of a hurricane threat previously.

 

I didn't know Howie was promoted. I missed out on him and Kendry Morales. :(

DJaxx lead 3-0 after 6. Pinto with a 1-hitter going. \:D/

[otis89]

Make that a 1-hitter through 7. \:D/

[Jon]

Make that a 1-hitter through 7. \:D/

His AA ERA is now below 2.50.

[otis89]

Mathes with a strong start for Daytona. 7 IP 6 H 0 R 1 BB 4 K

[otis89]

Pinto gets the 1st out, gives up 2 consecutive singles, but then gets a double play to get out of it. A 3-hitter through 8.

[Jon]

98 pitches through 8 for Renyel. You've got to love it anytime he can give you at least 7 complete.

[Jon]

4,400+ fans on hand tonight!

 

114-pitch CG shutout for Pinto! 9 IP, 3 hits, 0 runs, 1 walk, 7 strikeouts. His ERA drops from 2.62 to 2.44.

[otis89]

Pinto gets the CG!! 114 pitches if I counted right.

 

His final line: 9 IP 3 H 0 R 1 BB 6 K

 

=D> =D> \:D/ \:D/

[Jon]

His 15 to 5 ground ball to fly ball ratio is also worth mentioning.

[Laura]

Pinto and Mateo should be mentioned in any discussion of minor league pitchers having the best years.

 

Not the best game for Yepez this time around.

I don't know about Pinto since he had that horrid start to the season in Iowa. Mateo definitely, but I think Wells clearly outshined him at Daytona.

Brandon was a pleasure to watch. He was 2/4 with a double, single, BB and three runs - and even his outs were hard hit. I had heard some questions about his defense, but he played SS pretty smoothly, made some nice throws and made one web gem-quality play. I wish he was a Cub prospect. I'll try to get some pics/videos of him later tonight or tomorrow, if anyone's interested.

True, I was only looking at his AA starts.

 

Mateo definitely, but I think Wells clearly outshined him at Daytona.

 

I don't think it's *that* clear comparing the two.

 

They've both had good years, and they're the same age. Similar K rate, similar BB rate, Wells has the edge in HRs and ERA. I like that Mateo has started more games, pitched more innings, and has the lower avg against.

You're right, it's not that clear.

 

Wells made the FSL all-star team as a long reliever - which is pretty difficult to do, especially in the minors - showing the type of dominance he had as a reliever. He also had a cameo appearance at AA (causing him to miss the all-star game).

[Laura]

you win!

I should sticky this thread and lock the Nolasco one where everyone is making fun of me! 8)
