Cody Asche went deep.. the banner is working!!

He only has 4 less hits than last season in the same number of at bats.. almost identical numbers as I pointed out in the game thread yesterday. He'll be fine.

We shook the world right son?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 20, 2017 -> 05:32 PM) Seems 50/50 between DSL (tax reasons) and Kanny. I could see Great Falls (or Bristol) since their season hasn't started yet

This kid better start in Kanny and maybe stay there alittle longer than the Red Sox did with Moncada in low A who had the higher hit tool coming out. No need to rush him to high A. All we need is Beer and Hahn's kid will get his OTTP wish. I wonder who he picked for the '17 draft.. (Haseley?)

This is just fantastic news to wake up to. That Hayes report is typical JR and I'm betting it was the Cardinals that outbid us, but it looks like the kid wants to be here.

Collins has nearly the same identical numbers as last year in W-S. '16: 120 AB's 31 H 24 R 7 XBH 6 HR's 18 RBI's 33 BB 39 SO (.258/.418/.467/.885) '17: 120 AB's 27 H 23 R 6 XBH 6 HR's 20 RBI's 33 BB 37 SO (.225/.395/.433/.828)

Quintana was just fantastic.

Atta boy David.

Robertson staying in... here we go.

Melky.. I rag on you but that was nice.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 19, 2017 -> 11:38 PM) Robertson trade? He said that after reading Quintana's final line.

You don't see Yolmer making mistakes like that too often.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 19, 2017 -> 11:13 PM) Stop trying to make Anderson a leadoff hitter Yea I don't get Rick putting him there when he was just getting hot lower in the order. I'm sure we'll see Yolmer batting 2nd soon at this rate.

8 game hitting streak for Yolmer.

W-S is facing Peralta who has some nasty stuff. Good pitching prospect.

QUOTE (reiks12 @ May 19, 2017 -> 06:09 PM) dunning struggling First time in his life he's facing adversity/failure. Gonna be interesting to see how he responds down the road. Personally, I think he'll be fine.

Well.. sox comeback again but lose. This is one of those "good" losses though. Timmy looks very good up there.

Willy is an outstanding defensive RF, solid defensive LF... not good at all in CF.

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ May 18, 2017 -> 11:39 PM) Tim Anderson is so fun, man. His offensive numbers are starting to look normal-ish. He may finally be the one to end the sox long drought of not developing a young hitter.

Timmy with an oppo shot!! Nice power!
