Well he does tweet from time to time. I think he is battling an oblique strain if I remember right.

Almora walked 3 times tonight and singled so that's a thing

His front foot never left the ground on the HR swing, no kick.

It's a nightly routine for you?

Drinking heavily

Was hit in the shoulder according to Arizona Phil.

Is Chesny someone we should be excited about? He is always hitting, but it seems like it's only singles. Does he just have a highs BABIP, or is he just leg out grounders? I'm excited about him. He gets on base at an incredible pace and can play all over the field. A guy like that has a lot of value. We'll see if he continues to do it as he climbs the latter.

Chesny 5-5 snoozefest my ass.

Also 2nd only to Zagunis in obp with .404

I'm surprised more people don't talk about Chesny Young. He's still young he's played all over the diamond this year. He's hitting for average and obp. There's not a lot of power but he gets on base at an incredible pace.

Oh yeah it's been a blast something I'll never forget and Monday nights game was the best of it. We have had an absolute blast on this vacation, something we never would have been able to afford otherwise.

I was at the Pelican's game last night. I threw out one of many first pitches. Got to meet Tseng and his interpreter who were charting pitches behind us right behind home plate. He signed a ball for me that I caught during BP. Blackburn looked good in his 3 innings, assume he was on a pitch count since he was freshly off the DL. Velocity was down, fastball sat mostly 91 but can probably attribute this to the DL stint. He broke off a few nice curves but mostly threw fastballs and some sliders? Hard to identify pitches from behind home plate where were sitting we were blocked by the ump, catcher and hitter. Infield defense played very well and turned 2 double plays behind Blackburn. I got to join Nathan Barret in the broadcast booth for an inning and sing take me out to the ballgame during the stretch. The owner also gave me a tour of the clubhouse during the game where there were a few players watching Bryant in the first round of the HR derby it was a cool experience to watch that with some of the players in there. Overall it was a great night and something I'll definantly never forget. If you ever get a chance to take in a pelican's game deffinintly do, and try the chicken bog balls they are delicious! If you want to see pics from our trip on Twitter just use the hash tag #9inningsofwinning you should see them there.

No Happ last night for Eugene hopefully just a night off. That Alzolay guy was pretty good in his 4 innings, is he someone of interest prospectwise?

I guess Brockmeyer was promoted to Tenn today, just saw that on Twitter.

What is Voglebach's injury? I saw Machin in Southbend's lineup and Torres is missing...

Well, Underwood got the poop beat out of him. Couldn't register an out in the 2nd inning and was lifted.

Skulina was pulled after 3 IP 68 pitches? seems like an awful short outing.

There was an article on his college site reporting he turned down 3rd round money from the Cubs already.

So I was making the 7 hour car ride home from Atlanta today and I stopped at a rest area that happened to have wifi. I get this tweet notification: I saw the contest going on last night and figured what the heck might as well try. Never expected this. The wife and I are pretty stoked.

@MDGonzales: Baez non-displaced fracture of left ring finger

A sprained ankle shouldn't take that long. Well they put him on the 15 day so maybe he comes back quicker than that. He was walking around on it without much of a noticeable limp. I had hoped for a better prognosis.

Results were no structural damage

Both of the errors tonight came on the same play, he botched the ground ball failing to field it cleanly (error 1) then tried to shovel toss the ball to Alcantara at 2nd to get a force out but it was far to late for that anyway and the toss flew over Alcantara (error2).

out with a sore hammy Well hopefully he heals and it's not a pull or a tear. Rarely hear about a "sore hamstring" it's usually a DL stint when a hamstring is involved.
