DSL Sox now 20-17 after a 6-5 come from behind win. Nice relief for Veloz and Perez.

He just went to the Barons to fill in when Madrigal was gone for a couple days for the Futures Game.

I heard a story about this from Jack Morris when he was interviewed as a Twin one time. Jack was in the bullpen when the 1st game was ending. He said that the smell of pot in the air was as thick as he had been around. Fans were really getting into the entire evening. Also, a buddy of mine was in the upper deck, he did not participate on the field. Not sure this is true or not, but he said when fans stormed the field that there were some kids who slid down the foul pole from the upper deck to 1st deck and then hopped onto the field.

I believe his ERA is possibly under 2.00 since he moved to the pen about 18-20 innings ago.

Dawkins was HBP and removed from the game for a pinch runner.

This kid I think played at Holyoke JC and is going on to Fisher College, he is a CF. The kid we drafted is a C from Puerto Rico.

Luis Rodriguez just was moved from DSL to AZL today. We have done it with others, not often, but it is done.

7 wins in a row now for the DSL White Sox. Nice pitching today, a new guy went 1 inning and then Mola pitched well. That Laureano kid seems to get a couple hits every game.

DSL Sox up 2-1 and are batting in bottom of 7th. So much more competitive this season, nice to see.

1-2 with an RBI today thus far

What happened to Rigo Fernandez, had a good first season last year, real bad thus far this year.

He has not been off the Injured List all that long, could be part of the reason.

I thought I read somewhere that Francees was in extended spring training, 1B Reyes is as well. Seems like there were a handful.

Lifetime .301 average in the minors. Took a pitch on the hand when he made it up to the A's one season and that set him back big time. I always liked his bat too, they now have Ravelo and Martinez (who also could just plain hit when we had him). Took both of them quite a while to make it, good to see it.

Yes he was. He was the other one I thought of but could not come up with a name.

It happens. Read an article on Steve Blass sometime. All Star pitcher for Pirates, all of a sudden could not throw strikes anymore. Seems like the Cardinals had one.

I believe he was on 60-day IL, if so then he was exempt from 40 man roster count, so they need to add him back to 40-man.

Winston-Salem DH cancelled for today again.

Barons are in Mobile, still Alabama so what you said still goes. This is the one drawback about having all your minor league teams close to each other to make it easier for travel when promotions/demotions occur. Less cost to the org. But when one gets rained out you damn well be ready to have 2 or 3 rainouts. Not sure I have seen all 4, probably over all these years I have just do not recall it.

He was pretty decent at Univ. of Minnesota too. Thought he would get a couple years at the least.

There were two players released off Great Falls roster. Micah Coffey, Infielder and Michael Deeb, a 1Bman. The AZL White Sox released 3 pitchers, Edinxon Arias, Jordis Ramos and Bryan Lara. Catcher Jose Colina and Inf Jimmy Galuskey were also released.

18-54 last year. Here is a link to their record since 2010. Last year was the worst by far. http://www.thebaseballcube.com/teams/teamPage.asp?T=10182

Mola gave up 1 run today in 3 innings of relief. No walks, no hits. I thought, what the hell, looked for HBP, none. Turns out he struck out the first batter and the kid made it to first on a WP. Steals 2nd. 3rd on another WP and then scored on a ground out. 1 Earned run.

Basabe is on the IL, just went on a day or two ago.

Thanks. Thought I had read long ago that they had 3 young pitchers to protect and only had 2 slots.
