    To be fair, he's just swinging at batting practice fastballs. Bob Hamelin used to look amazing doing that, too. And, if I remember correctly, the Cubs became infatuated with Ryan Harvey after he put on a display for them during batting practice. But, I do like to see that the kid has a very good eye at the plate for a high school player. He'll likely do well with whatever team drafts him, after the Cubs draft some fast guy with a rocket arm who has no clue what to swing at or what not to swing at. Drew Stubbs!

    Not to mention freakishly tall pitchers.

    Hooray for high school pitching with enormous upside!

    Welcome aboard! There are a few others on the board who are in total agreement with you. Apparently Scherzer would be a lock to go Top 5 if he managed to stay healthy this season. BA's comments on Rowell in their draft tracker: In the Best Tools section, in the HS ranks, he gets #3 for best pure hitter, #2 for best power hitter, and #2 for best strike zone judgment. He doesn't sound like a Cub in the making. :(

    Olsen goes 8 scoreless and Borowski pitches a perfect 9th.

    BTW, which Bears were watching? I hear Ricky Manning is a fan.
  8. Outshined_One
    Highlights on BBTN. Holy crap he was on with the fastball.
  9. Outshined_One
    Pads PH for Peavy. His night is done.
  10. Outshined_One
    114 pitches, 74 strikes.
  11. Outshined_One
    Bears watching!

    I really hate Yankees prospects. They're even more overhyped than the ones in the Cubs' system. Wang is no exception. I love guys who keep the ball in the yard, but he relies so much on groundballs that it becomes a detriment. Last year: ERA: 4.02 DERA: 4.39 K/9: 3.64 BB/9: 2.48 HR/9: 0.70 K:BB: 1.47 That screams back of the rotation starter to me.

    Yost is just as much of an idiot as Baker.

    CR, my subscription ran out. What's the synopsis? Comparison between Scott Moore & Jame D'Antona of the D'backs. -Both strike out a lot. -Both aren't particularly quick or agile. -Moore is using all fields and taking pitches well. -Moore's made progress around 3B, but he likely will end up league-average defensively. He might stick there down the line, but a move isn't out of the question. Thanks, O_O. Is D'Antona someone worth comparing Moore to? What is the point of the article? Both are fairly comparable, although D'Antona has more power and been making less contact.

    What if a pair of star crossed lovers from each family combined the two? My God. We'd all be doomed... I think it would be the first human being ever to communicate solely in swear words since Lee Elia.

    Baez started for Iowa.

    Which is a more frightening thought: Ozzie Guillen's family? OR Carlos Zambrano's family?
  19. Outshined_One
    LOL yeah, wasn't that the new "Darren Baker" rule? I believe the age limit is 14 years or older.

    In other news, the NBA pays off its refs.

    Oh Lord...the WWE Diva Search is returning.
  22. Outshined_One
    It's played out, but I still enjoy it from time to time.
  23. Outshined_One
    Yay Paul Heyman on Raw.
  24. Outshined_One
    Hey don't be so hard on Rich Hill. According to Ozzie, he is trying to get Dusty fired. And that's why he should have stayed in the rotation!
  25. Outshined_One
    Rich Hill would have been murdered as a starter at the GAB.
