April 7, 20242 yr One thing that is obvious looking at all the lineups is just how much power this organization lacks. Need to find some in the draft IMO.

April 7, 20242 yr Just now, fathom said: One thing that is obvious looking at all the lineups is just how much power this organization lacks. Need to find some in the draft IMO. There is a ton this year. Should be a big pick this year. I want Jac but a lot of options will be there
April 7, 20242 yr Iriarte looks okay, but he's giving up some hard contact. He's got a good arm. The slider is probably his best pitch tonight. Leaving too many pitches over the heart of the plate. But, so far, 2 scoreless.
April 7, 20242 yr 56 minutes ago, Timmy U said: 54 pitches seems a little light to me. Hopefully they can get him up to 80 pitches in a couple of starts. I was told 4 innings or 65 pitches
April 7, 20242 yr 14 minutes ago, fathom said: Bailey Horn is a disaster. I thought he’d be way better. Uncuttable.
April 7, 20242 yr Wasn’t Berroa supposed to have a big fastball? Barely hitting 94 tonight. I have a feeling he’s injured still.
April 7, 20242 yr Iriarte getting squeezed in this game. Hard to tell much. 4 scoreless but a lot of traffic. Would have been better if strikes were called consistently.
April 7, 20242 yr 2 minutes ago, fathom said: Every Norfolk player above 1. OPS 1.182, to be exact. I think Maton started around 700ish and has had a crazy jump from this game. (No wonder SportsGuy/RolleTide are always hyping O's prospects, they're so overinflated from facing Charlotte on the road every year, lol.)
April 7, 20242 yr 9 minutes ago, fathom said: Wasn’t Berroa supposed to have a big fastball? Barely hitting 94 tonight. I have a feeling he’s injured still. Yes, 96-97, touching 98. Of course, it's not like Santos is doing anything for the Mariners, either. They're almost as cursed as the White Sox these days.
April 7, 20242 yr I also thought Iriarte was supposed to have more on his fastball. Was mainly 92 to 93 tonight.

I’m actually shocked at how bad it is. You’d think most orgs would have plenty of semi interesting prospects pushing for playing time in Low A.
April 7, 20242 yr 2 hours ago, DirtySox said: Undoubtedly. BA said if he stays healthy, probably the best LHP prospect out there. I know we’ve discussed this before, but he’s our number 1 prospect IMO. I think he’s Sale reincarnated. Montgomery’s stock plummets for me if he can’t play SS.

April 7, 20242 yr Elko is really good defensively at 1st. He's made a bunch of slick plays tonight. If he could hit sliders, he'd be quite a prospect.
