    Heh, I only skimmed the Papelbon story - didn't think to check and see if they had game times. I figured MiLB.com would be more likely to be wrong! Thanks, Serena.

    What's he still doing spending a full season at low-A at age 22 with 5 viable pitches, given the success he's had this season?
  3. CaliforniaRaisin
    Apparently Mulder will have his surgery next week.
  4. CaliforniaRaisin
    WTG, IMB. Show those Cards fans.
  5. CaliforniaRaisin
    The less media coverage of ND, the better.

    Confirmed that Fontenot is injured.

    No way Dopirak is dropped off the 40-man. If Cedeno and Novoa aren't traded, I expect they'll remain on the 40-man. According to craig, Novoa actually has one more option year because he spent all of this season in the big leagues. Here's (Premium) a thread in the Minor League Forum discussing potential names to be added. I expect the following names will be protected: Jake Fox Ryan Harvey Billy Petrick Clay Rapada/Ed Campusano/Chris Shaver <-- one of Randy Wells No need to protect Eric Patterson or Sean Gallgher yet.

    The game time for Boise is still different between MiLB.com and BoiseHawks.com. MiLB.com (in two different parts of its site) says the game starts at 5:15 MDT Boise's own web site says 7:15 MDT. :shrug:
  9. CaliforniaRaisin
    Huh, still predicts the Bears will win.
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    Agreed.
  11. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yes, it's very much so a pitcher's league. EDIT: Moore was 6th in the SL in SLG.

    It's his biggest problem, definitely. He does have a good eye and takes a good share of walks. Looks like an Adam Dunn type player. Nah, he doesn't have Dunn's patience or power.

    I wish that was luck, but they have collected ALOT of legit talent. Sanchez and Ramirez were the Red Sox top two prospects in many eyes. Nolasco was HUGELY underrated by the Cubs orginization. Not only that but guys like Willingham, Olsen, Hermida, Uggla were some highly touted prospects. Not to mention Willis and Cabrera. I'm jealous of the young talent on that team. Olsen is Scott Kazmir lite, Sanchez showed some nasty stuff today, Ramirez is one of the most exciting young SSs in the league...and so on. Nolasco will settle in as a back of the rotation guy, imo. His peripherals are not impressive. I think Ricky's peripheral stats will improve (and so will he) and come closer to his minor league numbers (excluding the AAA attempt in 2004) in the next few years.

    It's his biggest problem, definitely. He does have a good eye and takes a good share of walks. EDIT: He actually had 126 Ks in AA and 1 in AAA. He walked 55 times and had an IsoD of .083 between West Tenn and Iowa.

    SCOTT MOORE!

    Problem is, Hendry is always banking on this. Always. No. He's not. Not always.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Eww, the 951 (formerly the 909). Crossing over to LA County anytime soon? :goes and hides since Fred is 25 miles away from Navin:
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    I'm hoping it's an NL team. Can you imagine Dusty in Arizona with all that young talent?

    Because Gallagher is a level ahead of Veal and more advanced. I expect both will see time next season in the big leagues, but Gallagher will be more ready to win a job in the spring a la Marshall.

    Don't forget, you can watch the Boise game on their web site. Here's the link to the video feed.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Boise's web site says game time is a 7:15 pm MDT. MiLB.com says 5:15. I'd trust the Boise web site. :shrug: Peoria is in must-win mode, they're eliminated if they lose.

    Yap yap yap. :P Sorry, was distracted by the TV. You could have posted the boxes, you know. I'm impressed you were up so late.
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    With no outs in the bottom of the 9th inning, Tri-City wins it on a bases-loaded bloop single. The final is 4-3. I'll post the boxes in a few minutes.
