Looks like Canning is prone to walk batters. How many walks will Collins have tonight? 0-0 4BB 

W-S gonna have a wet week

Stop the presses!  Henzman allowed a HR tonight. Only the third one in four years.

Only BHAM and Kanny on the slate.  CHA and W-S are off.

BHAM: Brennan

KAN: Henzman

Birmingham hitters facing a touch one in Griffin Canning tonight.

Looks like Schilling, who is facing Kanny, is also pretty tough. No walks either thru 6, that always helps.

Uh oh seems like Collins is watching strikes down the middle lately.

Canning is legit. No hitter through 4, with 8Ks.

Holy Crap.   That is unbelievable.

Love their top picks from last year 

Another K for Collins...I guess we jumped a bit soon to forecast him and Zavala into big league roles.  Not close to ready, at least yet.  Jimenez 0 for 3.

 

Gordon Beckham is still alive, btw...just struck out in his season debut for the M's against the Twins, who are still hanging close with the Indians because the division is so terrible.   Meanwhile, Byron Buxton can't HIT, yet again (440 OPS, making Engel look positively hitterish.)

This is sarcasm, I hope? Because he's 0-3 in one game he can't be predicted to be in the majors?

Still being no hit in Birmingham.

I know right! Sorry Collins, my bad dude.

Funny how there is 0 criticism for Eloy tonight. A bad game for Collins and people question whether or not hes going to be a major leaguer?

Of course...3-4 days ago, some were pushing to promote Jimenez, for example.  2-3 weeks ago, Collins was a complete bust.

Obviously they're facing some REALLY tough pitching, so the basic idea is to pump the brakes on rushing anyone from AA to AAA until they're 100% ready for the next step.

We shouldn't push those guys up...just to push more guys from Winston-Salem so we can accommodate a couple of hitters like Gonzalez and Rivera that are doing well in the SALLY League.

Baron's still being no-hit in to the 9th inning now. 2 outs. It's up to Barnum.

He flew out to CF. Combined no-hitter. Barons took 7 walks, none of them by Collins or Eloy.

Henzman struck out 8 and walked 1. He now has 36 K to 5 BB on the season. His BB/9 is about 1. Loving it.
