August 29, 200421 yr Which will happen first, Rogowski will finally get called up to AA or Valentin will stop sucking? Also its nice to see Fields on fire.
August 29, 200421 yr Which will happen first, Rogowski will finally get called up to AA or Valentin will stop sucking? That's a hard question to answer. I have no idea...
August 29, 200421 yr If Kelly Wunsch has done something to piss off KW or JR just f***ing release him then, I'm sick of him succeding down in Charlotte and not being up in Chicago.
August 29, 200421 yr Which will happen first, Rogowski will finally get called up to AA or Valentin will stop sucking? Also its nice to see Fields on fire. Its a toss up
August 29, 200421 yr Which will happen first, Rogowski will finally get called up to AA or Valentin will stop sucking? Also its nice to see Fields on fire. Depends on if you carry the question into next year....... That's when Rogo will be in AA.
August 29, 200421 yr Author Birmingham beat Mobile 12-5. Heath Phillips picked up the win going 5 innings with 5 ER's and 4K's in an unconvincing performance. Martel and Sasser both homered for the Barons. Box Score Kanny lost to Hickory 9-4. Byeong Hak An picked up the loss giving up 6R or 3ER's in 4.1 innings. He had 6BB's and 0K's. Nanita, Valido, Gray, Schnurstein and Bounds all had multi - hit games. Box Score
August 29, 200421 yr Author Ryan Sweeney in CF last night ... interesting. And Casey Rogowski started in LF as well, and Tom Brice will be back very soon to join the outfield mix as well.
August 29, 200421 yr And Casey Rogowski started in LF as well, and Tom Brice will be back very soon to join the outfield mix as well. Will Brice come back with only 8 games left??
August 29, 200421 yr Well Rex, you should see Sean Tracey at the start of next year down in Bham. He's definately getting stronger as the season goes on. I think a lot of it has to do with him getting more and more used to pitching, since he didn't start until he was in junior college and then after one year there, moved on to UCI where he probably was told some new things about pitching (by Savage), and then into the Sox organization.
August 29, 200421 yr Will Brice come back with only 8 games left?? Why not? The Hogs are going to make the playoffs, they could use the help.
August 29, 200421 yr Hey Jason do you know what kind of stuff Tracey has? He is old for his league, but he was raw coming out apparently so I can understand. He could have a nice future here.
August 29, 200421 yr Good idea, I'll write something up on him. I've been thinking about doing it for some time now. He's got fastball, slider mainly if I recall. I also think he throws a changeup ,but I got it written down, so I'll just check my notes out and then write something up
August 29, 200421 yr Why not? The Hogs are going to make the playoffs, they could use the help. I don't think Winston-Salem will make the playoffs.
August 29, 200421 yr I don't think Winston-Salem will make the playoffs. Kinston won the first half title and is in 1st this half so Winston-Salem will get in on the wildcard. They are the 2nd place team in the 2nd half. At least this is what was said on one of their broadcasts. This is from the Winston-Salem Journal backing up my statement: Even if the Warthogs fall short of Kinston in the second half race of the Carolina League's Southern Division, they have pulled tantalizingly close to clinching a wild-card berth for the playoffs. The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, the only team with a chance of catching the Warthogs, lost 8-6 to the Frederick Keys last night to fall 91/2 games behind Winston-Salem with 10 games to play.

This is from the Winston-Salem Journal backing up my statement: Interesting......... most leagues give the team with the next best overall record the wild card....... which in this case would be Myrtle Beach. Seems weird to award the 2nd place finisher in the second half, and penalize the team that did the same in the first half.... especially if that team has the better overall record.

Agreed Rex, I have always heard of it being team with best overall record who are not in playoffs.
