    He is garbage. I have no idea how he gets anyone out. He sucks. it won't last. He might have 3-5 good seasons, but isn't going to last.

    All of those guys can reach back for 95 when they need to, maybe Maeda and Odorizzi can't but the rest can, They might not average 93 but you'd bet your ass they average over 92. Also Porcello Ross an

Collins. 2B and a BB so far.

And it was a 2-RBI double. AVG up to .274.

I noticed in his single yesterday that it seemed he actually took less off of his swing and chose to flip the ball in to LCF. He wasn't just trying to crush it to RF. Not sure if that's part of going back to his college approach, but I liked it.

Dunning feeling it so far.

4.0 IP 1H 0 BB 5 SO

I think they have hit one ball to the outfield.  Everything else grounders and strikeouts.  Getting ahead too.

Another hit for Collins.

Ugh, I'm disappointed there is no video feed today. I have the day off work and would love to see Dunning carving up hitters and Collins bringing that average near the .280s.

Barons twitter has Collins double on video.  Rope off base of left field wall

Weird, not sure why it's not embedding it for you.

Dunning should be done. Heck of a line.

7.0 IP 5 H 0 BB 1 ER 9 SO

Dunning's line looks great

Dunning finished the 7th at 100 pitches, so he might be done.

Great job by Birm guys 

Collins grounds out. He's 2/4, 2B, 2 RBI, BB, K.

Zavala seems healthy and Collins is up to .275, wow

Wonder when we see Dunning in ChiTown, September earliest but likely Spring of '19...Kopech, Stephens, Fulmer up first

I think its time that either Zavala or Collins go to AAA. 

They both need as many reps as possible defensively at catcher. 

If one or both can stick at catcher we'll have quite the asset. 

Send Gonzalez down to Charlotte and call-up Smith. When the promotions come I would like to see Collins and Eloy bumped up to Charlotte. Let Alfredo Gonzalez back up Collins at catcher until Zavala is ready for a promotion later this year.

And Bingo was his name-o.  I would love to see Collins and Eloy promoted together.  They are quite the duo.

But remember according to a poster here (that I won't name), his stuff is average. 

Learned something interesting from the Barons’ broadcast at Rickwood.

Since that game is about diversity/inclusion, they mentioned how Dunning’s mother is actually 100% South Korean, so that made him Asian-American or biracial or however you want to classify it.   Apparently, she’s actually around 5’8” and her family is also pretty tall.  (Note: Dane is listed at 6’4”)

He has a cool tattoo, “One Blood,” as well.

So that’s different, has been ages since Takatsu and Iguchi...of course, they were Japanese.  I know we also signed a Korean pitcher somewhere along the way to a decent-sized bonus but he didn’t get out of A ball.
