April 6, 20188 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 6, 2018 -> 01:44 AM) Basically. I will say when I saw trey in person at W-S last year he’s one of the guys in the field that stands out physically. Although so did Keon Barnum. A friend told me that at the time, Andy Gonzalez stood out compared to his minor league peers. Things have definitely changed
April 6, 20188 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 07:44 PM) Dunning liked facing Brewers org without his nemesis in the lineup Erceg is his Newman

April 6, 20188 yr Michael Hickman walks off for kanny. Big game for Tate Blackman. Offensively pretty much everyone notable did respectably.
April 6, 20188 yr Good day for hitters in AA and A+, Dunning makes the decision to put him at W-S look silly, McClure's numbers at Kanny look promising, hopefully he keeps it up.
April 6, 20188 yr Obviously the biggest news of the day is Charlie Tilson making out of the game in one piece.
April 6, 20188 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 08:56 PM) Covey deserves an ataboy. Maybe he can replace Infante and join the ML team this month

April 6, 20188 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 10:16 PM) Nice start for Rutherford Hopefully continues Awesome to see Basabe have a good game after a solid Spring, have a feeling he'll be in the Top 100 conversation by next season Feel like Booker deserves to be viewed as of more of a prospect and should play every day...really tough to in that OF though
April 6, 20188 yr Promising start by McClure, but if his fastball sits in the upper 80s I don't see how that holds up over time. Edited April 6, 20188 yr by mac9001

April 6, 20188 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxJon @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 10:59 PM) Thought it was low-mid 90's Just going off a couple tweets he was mostly throwing 2-seamers at 87-89, 4-seamer is 90+ but rarely thrown. I'm looking forward to seeing him on TV and it never hurts to be 6'7"so the velocity may play up if he has decent extension.

I'm looking forward to seeing him on TV and it never hurts to be 6'7"so the velocity may play up if he has decent extension. Do we know how much the extension helps in terms of like less reaction time or more mph per extra inch? Because at this point I feel like you have to sit 93-94 to be considered a prospect. Obviously there are outliers in the majors, but it puts so much pressure on having multiple plus secondaries and great command that its hard to predict.
April 6, 20188 yr Maybe his stuff will play up in the pen. Regardless, having not seen much of them after the CWS, fun start to year for him. Not a lot of the big bullpen prospects pitched last night, and without Burger, Robert, Hansen and Jimenez, it was kind of a weird night to follow.
