  1. I read somewhere (not sure where, sorry) that the Cubs have asked him to only throw 50% fastballs for now so he can work on his change and slider.
  2. is he in AAA? Yes. His stats: 31 IP, 0.29 ERA, 46 K, 11 BB, .119 BAA.
  3. http://nwitimes.com/articles/2007/04/28/sports/top_sports/doc414ac3d14f519616862572ca006d5205.txt
  4. Geez, call him up already. And start him. 0.29 ERA. 14 Ks yesterday.
  5. Justin Hickman signed with the Redskins.
  6. Yeah, I was hoping for a G and a T (and hoping the G could slide over to C in a pinch). The 7th rounder probably will end up playing G in the NFL (*if* he plays in the NFL), so the Bears didn't even address T. That definitely was the most disappointing thing for me.
  7. Ugh, within 10 miles of Fred. Must escape... (Did you know snoodmonger works in Glendale? True story.)
  8. Apparently the run the Smokies scored to win it on an RBI groundball was actually a busted suicide squeeze. Donnie Veal on his best outing of the season: Also:
  9. MiLB.com's Palm Beach web site has Daytona starting RHP Todd Blackford (0-0, 4.80 ERA, 15 IP, 10 K/6 BB, .278 BAA). I guess he's healthy and off the DL.
  10. The strangest part of Samardzija's outing today was that none of the hits he gave up were for extra bases. He also had no double plays. What that means is anyone's guess, but still, weird. Well, he's only given up 3 XBHs all season.
  11. Just like Ohman at the big leagues vs. righties, Rapada's early season AAA performance has shown that he's only a LOOGY - he's faced too many righties at AAA (and obviously struggled).
  12. My old college roommate is at the game, I can't wait to hear what it was like. ETA: Apparently they showed him in the crowd on TNT right after Baron's midcourt shot!
  13. Hey, Jessica Alba is in the stands. She's very good friends with Baron Davis. Jessica Alba is a huge UCLA fan.
  14. MATT BARNES!!!!! The former Bruins are at it again! :)
  15. Lame, that looked like a travel in the backcourt!
  16. Ugh, get some defensive rebounds, GSW.
  17. I don't know who's starting for Daytona - could be Atkins who was bumped two days ago for a spot starter. If Blackford is healthy again, it could be him. I was planning on listening to the postgame show on the radio today but the end of the Bulls game was still on.
  18. Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Carlos Marmol (2-1, 2.91 ERA, 21.2 IP) Tennessee: RHP Sean Gallagher (2-2, 4.19 ERA, 19.1 IP) Daytona: ?? Peoria: RHP Jose Ceda (2-1, 5.65 ERA, 14.1 IP) Marmol: 21.2 IP, 27 K/8 BB, .200 BAA Gallagher: 19.1 IP, 20 K/5 BB, .219 BAA ?? Ceda: 14.1 IP, 15 K/6 BB, .173 BAA
  19. On the other hand, the entire system of coaches didn't come with Wilken from Toronto either. Certianly true, but I wouldn't want Wilken to pick someone he views as inferior just because they are more advanced.
  20. Psh, won't matter. The Warriors will win this series!
  21. But Wilken hasn't taken part in the previous HS selections. He has a good reputation with reason.
  22. I saw Moore in the Sun Bowl, and he seemed competent. Didn't really get a chance to show off much arm strength, and he had the presence of mind to repeatedly dump off to running backs on the game winning drive(although I think they were trying to that after about 5 times). Don't know how well he'll project in the NFL though. Good arm, awful accuracy, not the brightest bulb around - his previous 3 seasons had been brutal. Questionable teammate, fought a lot with Karl Dorrell because Drew Olson got to start over him.
