May 26, 20214 yr 7 HRS now for Curbelo. I think a promotion is in order in the near future. 25 years old. Edited May 26, 20214 yr by KrankinSox

May 26, 20214 yr Nice 3 hit game for Ramos, and this was Bilous AA debut right? Nice start for him. Dirty Dedes with another 2 hits, ho hum.

May 26, 20214 yr Random thoughts/things I noticed -Sheets had his fourth error of the season in LF last night. That is not good -Curbelo's swing looks great... -Nik Turley has been one of the only guys in Charlotte throwing well. I wonder how soon he replaces mop-up duty Crochet. -Bilous has always had decent stuff and got the strikeouts, but if he keeps limiting the walks he could be interesting.
May 26, 20214 yr Curbelo's swing is a dead ringer for Kyle Lewis. Long levers. Obviously swing and miss issues come with that, but also big power. Edited May 26, 20214 yr by chitownsportsfan

May 26, 20214 yr Also who cares about his season numbers, if he has a hot month with high ks and good scouting reports nobody will care that he had a bad game in low-a.

Exactly. Been seein this long enough with minor leaguers. A guy might have a 5 ERA overall but had a month + of dominating (basically "figured it out") and got promoted. Scouts/management knows and sees that.
