June 24, 20187 yr Scared to start this thread after yesterday although describing Dunning as having a sore elbow sounds better than what many initially were saying. Fingers crossed. Guy has probably got the highest floor of our prospects. http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?cid=&lid=&org=145&sc=&sid=milb&t=affiliate&ymd=20180624
June 24, 20187 yr Where do you go to get highlights of MiLB? Are there certain people to follow on Twitter?
June 24, 20187 yr Clinton Cole (@cdcole55) is a good follow for lower level coverage. James Fegan (@JRFegan) usually has good coverage too.
June 24, 20187 yr Robert is 1-3 with a BB & a K. He’s now hitting .286. The Knights won and Eloy finished 2-4 with a HR.
June 24, 20187 yr 1 hour ago, bmags said: Monster day for Curbelo so far, 2-3 with a 2b and a HR Finished 4-5, 2B, HR, RBI, 2 R Zavala got his 1st AAA hit as well. Edited June 24, 20187 yr by SoxAce
June 24, 20187 yr 47 minutes ago, Jose Abreu said: Why is Lincoln Henzman being used as a reliever? Good question. Appears they are going to give Hickman a shot first. I do not like that.
June 24, 20187 yr Author I was hoping it was just Henzman's day to throw and they needed a body. Hickman's line was not impressive at 4ip 7ER 7h 2w 1k. He is a year plus older than Henzman(Hickman 24yo. ) I remember him being a notable pick at the time.

June 25, 20187 yr 34 minutes ago, bmags said: Hickman has been playing first for a while. Blake Hickman.
June 25, 20187 yr Nice video on Future Sox Twitter of Eloy talking about his homer and game winning hit in English. His English is pretty darned good.
June 25, 20187 yr 13 minutes ago, Hot FiRe said: Sosa injured now too. Get Herm and the medical staff the hell out of here He's playing tonight
June 25, 20187 yr http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?content_id=2193743283&sid=milb Jimenez homer...btw, our good friend Seth Beer already has four homers in the NY-Penn League. Probably gets the promotion to some level of A ball quite soon.
June 25, 20187 yr 32 minutes ago, Hot FiRe said: Sosa injured now too. Get Herm and the medical staff the hell out of here Yes because while herm Schneider is in Chicago, he can take care of injuries in great falls.
June 25, 20187 yr 1 minute ago, ptatc said: Yes because while herm Schneider is in Chicago, he can take care of injuries in great falls. Forget it, he's rolling.
June 25, 20187 yr Phew, glad he’s in there game 2. Quintero is destroying again. With his age if he’s raking for a few weeks I wonder if they press him up a little earlier. also a little confused that milb has him from DR.

Its probably just where he established residency and they didn't care to put the effort in to find his real hometown like they would for a big cuban signing. I bet if he makes it to the minors, or really even the higher levels of the minors, they'll have the right information.
June 25, 20187 yr 52 minutes ago, Hot FiRe said: While I was joking about Sosa, it is Herm's staff top to bottom. Him and whoever is in charge of strength and conditioning. They obviously do not have immediate contact with the lower levels, the guys in charge at the major league level probably set the system the rest of the organization uses. In my experience in a strength program, the bigger change in our training was when the head of the department (who was like Herm and Allen Thomas in that they are responsible for the big team) changed as opposed to when our individual strength coach changed. The coach change at our level resulted in small changes and big changes in personality while the change at the highest level meant the whole way we went about lifting changed even though we had most of the same staff as before.
