    That ignores how he finished last season. He is still our best pitcher. Let's let Hill get through the league a couple of times before we annoint him the Cy Young winner. I haven't annointed him anything more than the best starting pitcher on this team.

    Game-time temperature: 43°F Feels like: 38°F Cloudy, 20% chance of precipitation. Winds blowing in from RF at about 5-10 mph.

    I believe people are suggesting Rich Hill has been better than Z since the middle of last season. There are causes for concern for Z though - his back, his weight, his BBs. Since August 1: Rich Hill: 83.2 IP, 2.47 ERA, 84 K/21 BB, 0.91 WHIP, 11 HR Carlos Zambrano: 78 IP, 4.62 ERA, 68 K/44 BB, 1.47 WHIP, 8 HR Carlos has better stuff and has a much longer and better history but Hill obviously has been much, much better over the last half season.

    I had to give up tickets to see San Bernardino vs. Rancho Cucamonga the other day - the game started off with Bartolo Colon pitching to Rafael Furcal. :shock:

    More questions about some of the young Latin American pitchers, Nate... What are your overall thoughts on all of them - specifically Albuquerque, Ceda, Pina and Castillo. I know Ceda is HUGE and throws gas (as does Castillo and Dolis)...what about Albuquerque and Pina. What other pitchers do these guys throw? Who's left the best impression on you so far?
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    I'd also like to hear about his stuff. I know that Ceda, Castillo, and Dolis all throw very hard. And, all three are pretty wild. Physically, Ceda is the hulk of the bunch. Ceda has a slider of some promise. All three of Ceda, Castillo, and Dolis have been pretty wild. Not sure what if anything Dolis and Castillo have for non-fastball. But Pina and Albuquerque, I don't know what they've got. Carillo is a little guy who doesn't throw hard, even though he seems to have better control and maybe a breaking pitch. I'd love to hear Raisin's observations on them. Where did you hear Ceda threw a slider? I thought he threw a curve (of promise, as you said). Otherwise, I don't know much more than you. I've heard Albuquerque threw hard a few years ago, before the injuries, but who knows now. I know nothing about Pina's arsenal. This is one of the reasons I really need to listen to some Peoria games. :) We should drop Nate some questions too.

    Aramis and DeRosa hurt? Lame.

    Internet is down at home, so no time to look at opposing pitchers or stats. Iowa: Walrond Tenn: Berg Daytona: Blackford Peoria: Pina

    Do I win if Lou never gets ejected? (Never submitted an entry.)

    Rumor has it that once Ryan Harvey leaves EXT, he'll head to Daytona and not Tennessee.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Tennessee loses 5-1. Chris Walker went 2 for 3, Jake Fox and Matt Craig each had a double. Peoria loses game two too, 2-1. Muldowney gets the CG - 6 IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 8 K, 2 BB, 1 HR. Muldowney has 17 Ks in 11 IP this season. Josh Lansford went 2 for 2 with 2 doubles.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    Huntsville now up 4-1 on Tennessee in the middle of the 6th. Peoria tied 1-1 now in the 5th inning. Muldowney: 5 IP, 1 ER, 4 H, 8 K, 2 BB.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    Daytona loses 4-3.
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    Mike Cooper leaves the Daytona game with some sort of injury. :?
