  1. Anyone know whose pitching for Mesa in the tandem tonight? Just busting chops I guess!
  2. Also Weiters can close, he's been clocked 93 to 97 on the gun and ok defense wise behind the plate.
  3. I think I heard somewhere that Ceda will start game # 2 and Muldowney will get game # 3 away.
  4. We'll have to converse with Barretts girlfriend/wife about the giant part? What a great start to the #2 pick, down 4-0 in the 1st inning and no outs.
  5. Huge series between the Pirates and the Cubs, chance to pass the Buccos after the series and vault us into at least 3rd pick or maybe 2nd if Tampa wins one, also we're only 4 games behind the hot Royals who have the 1st pick.
  6. Sonnastine is very similar to Jamie Shields that the Devil Rays having pitching in the major leagues. Nieman if healthy is a good debate vs Brignac and possibly Longoria but the real underdog on the club is Elliott Johnson (not the best prospect) who seems to get better every yr and is only 22 yrs old on a 165 lbs frame and has hit 15 hrs and 285 with 43 stolen bases both in 04/05 and little curious how he's only 20 for 38 this yr but he's better than that.
  7. Also Elliott Johnson 2b, Jeff Nieman Rp and Evan Longoria TB 1st round pick this yr.
  8. BP's mvp Derek Jeter!!! 8) 8)
  9. I believe I read that he's attending Texas A&M and is a junior!
  10. Samson the 34th rounder signed and has played the last two or three weeks for Mesa. It sounds like we lost three players for sure, Ruth, Marquez Smith and Feltner, I would imagine all the others are JC players and we might have a shot of signing them if we like by next May when their JC seasons are over.
  11. Keep your head up Mr. Raisin and keep checking in on the 06 draft class, it could be a little better than we thought given the conditions of it, going into the draft!!
  12. Phil Douglass related to Bobby? Bicondoa an org filler I would guess?
  13. We screwed up and won, plus I think its the race for the #2 pick and I think the Royals have a lock on the #1!
  14. Boise just needs to be Tri Cities one game out of the next 6 to win their division!
  15. Ceda will have to stay on top of his weight and body, its a little fleshy but hopefully he'll stay on top of this situation.
  16. Lansford and Camp have been pretty good at times, but the player that has glued this Boise club together since the Baez injury has been Matulia who's batting over 250 now, raising his avg almost 90 points in the last month and giving this club an everyday SS.
  17. Canzler is 1st in the league with 58 rbis and Colvin is 3rd with 48 rbis and missed the 1st two weeks of the season.
  18. It sounds like Colvin hit a grand slam and looks like Tri City is losing its game. It sounds like Colvin has lost quite a few home runs this season to funny weather conditions and large ball parks like Vancouver but he still has 8 which isnt bad and seems to hit them when they count.
  19. Well Tampa Bay pulled there usual and folded when it counted!
  20. Much better outing for Huseby, a solo homer and then 4 punchouts in a 3 inning stint, may have a tired arm coming off the surgery, hopefully he gets stronger with each outing in the future.
  21. Just found out Colvin turns 21 next week and Snider turns 19 here soon, so I guess there's about 2 yrs difference and I've heard there's quite the difference between the Northwest and the Appy leagues!!
  22. Hey is Snider or Colvin close to the big leagues yet?
  23. Sickles writings in the past going all the way back to Toronto haven't been favorable with Wilken!
  24. You would get better answers out of Fleita and Wilken!! Why would you listen to a stat rat that has very little intrest in the Cubs and has had a history of problems from Wilken over the yrs.
