He grimaced and kind of limped his way to first. Might be some discomfort, might be a separated shoulder.

Who knows at this point? Even if Barney can be an average hitting starting 2B who plays good defense, that's better than most people ever expected of him.

Starlin Castro is better.

Darwin Barney is solid.

11 pitch walk after being down 0-2. Awesome!

At least he got his money's worth. Colvin having a fantastic at bat.

Hilarious seeing Garza get the swinging K as the fans get up for the wave.

Why anyone would throw Soriano a fastball in the zone is beyond me. Also, Melvin Mora has had better days.

Well, whatever; he lost a [expletive]-ton of money because of Madoff. Actually, if the stories are true the Wilpons made money with Madoff and may have helpd perpatrate the scam so he could get cash from banks. But he ultimately lost around $700 million, right? The trustee is now seeking to claw back a billion dollars from them. Wilpon and Katz made a good bit of money off of the Madoff scheme. They took some losses, but overall, if the allegations are true, their loss of $150m is no skin off their backs. The story on the face of things is pretty much that the owners took out stupid loans and have run the Mets in impressively incompetent fashion. What's really been happening with the Mets' books will probably come out in the next few years.

While I would be very happy to get Bubba, wouldn't that pretty much put an end to our hopes of any significant late round super slots? Not necessarily. Take Zach Lee as an example: Considering Starling has a strong commitment to Nebraska as a QB, the Cubs could structure a comparable deal with him without having a severe impact on their draft budget.

Iowa has to deal with the proverbial buzzsaw in Omaha's rotation. Danny Duffy yesterday, Mike Montgomery today, and Vin Mazzaro tomorrow. Yeesh.

Between Suh trying to decapitate QBs and Fairley's penchant for drawing personal fouls, I have a feeling the Lions might very well kill someone's QB in the next few years.

I know he's one of the best hitters in the Midwest League, but it's seriously time for Greg Rohan to get promoted if the Cubs have any intention of finding out if he's a worthwhile prospect.

I really question whether Lindor will ever hit enough to be a starting middle infielder in the majors. When I read reports like this: I worry. Some people aren't so hot on his defensive tools, either. In other words, bleh. Not a fan of that pick.

Not a top of the line guy, but he's done well enough that he could find himself in the Marlins rotation in the next two to three years.

He wasn't hustling like Barney would have. I believe the proper term for Barney is crafty? Does Barney qualify for the hustle/grit descriptors? From the eyeball test, he looks like he might be one of those lazy types.
