April 17, 200421 yr Just a few notes to keep the troops up after a shutout by rag-armed Paul Abbott(who pulled the same garbage in the 2000 playoffs). *Jeremy Reed has already surged into the top 10 in hitting in the International League. He's tied for 7th at .400 with an OBP of .436. Not showing much power, but he's third in the league in hits. *Felix Diaz leads the league in ERA (0.00) and wins (two, tied with Jon Rauch). Showing pinpoint control, too. *Ryan Meaux moved out of the pen and into the rotation for Birmingham last night. The results were dazzling. Eight innings, 2 hits, 8 Ks. *And Robert Valido looks like he can handle the jump to Kannapolis just fine. He's hitting .296 while playing shortstop. Like to see Reed get a full season at Triple A, but if the dude keeps hitting like this he's got to come up at some point.
