  1. Really? BA doesn't have him in the Top 200 on their prospects list. Seidel is the only Wisconsin guy ranked in the Top 200. According to them, his fastball is in the high 80s and peaks at 90. He has a good breaking pitch otherwise, but his delivery brings about a large degree of effort and stress on his shoulder. He has a strong commitment to Arkansas, so he might be a tough sign.
  2. Hendry likes character guys...so I really doubt the Cubs will take him. If he can put those character issues to bed and stay healthy, there's nothing stopping him from being a terrific pitcher.

  4. Avery's "Seamen" comment was quite possibly the weirdest moment of the night. :-s
  5. Yep! Brad Lincoln -Most likely going to be selected in the Top 5. -Works 91-93, touches high 90s and can do so in later innings. -Terrific curve with a developing change. -Bulldog mentality, aggressive against hitters. -On the smaller side (6', 200 lbs), but has a good enough body that endurance should not be a major factor. -Also has spent plenty of time as a hitter, could be moved to 3B or the OF if his arm fails him and has the power to make the move. Cory Rasmus -Hit 97 this past fall. -Strong frame (6'0 195 lbs) means he's already well-developed and should move quickly, but that his ceiling is limited. -Delivery has quite a bit of effort when he tries to dial it up. His arm and mechanics could be cleaned up a bit, too. -His fastball, slider, and change all project as plus pitches. -Good approach to the game, doesn't fold under pressure. -Could go anywhere from the 2nd to 5th round. whi is 6' 200 lbs on the smaller side but 6'1 195 is described as a strong frame?? I believe it's muscle and being shape. Lincoln and Rasmus both have bodies that should be able to hold up over a season, but both are on the shorter/smaller side of what scouts look for in pitchers.

  7. Considering the bullpen was shot thanks to the 14 inning extravaganza and thanks to Williamson's injury, this doesn't come as a major surprise. Granted, I thought Wuertz would get the call...but ah well.
  8. Excellent news, thank you! I'm glad the Cubs are taking it slow with Pawelek. HS arms can be finicky, ya know?
  9. come on this is the Cardinals Pujols will be back tomorrow. Fixed.
  10. Best fans in baseball! Come on Neifi, hit into an error or something.
  11. Novoa hitting? This should be a fun AB.
  12. I wish nothing less than Laryngitis on those tools.
  13. It seems like everyone on this team has sucked against lefties.
  14. You want to hit it? :shock: If you mean make a fist and blast him in the jaw with it, yes. :P
  15. Joe Buck singing makes me want to Barrett him even more.
  16. That would have ranked among the funniest things I have ever seen in my life.
  17. Albert Pujols has no business winning a Gold Glove, Joe.
  18. I wonder how long and where Lee's rehab will be.
