April 9, 201016 yr Escobar 4-5, yesssss. That Dash defense should be very good. Very athletic outfield (Short, Greene, Williams) and the middle infielders (Escobar and Garcia) are supposed to be very good.
April 9, 201016 yr The minor league opening day thread was booming last year. What a difference a year makes. lol. Nice to see some of our top prospects getting off to good starts. Real good to see Escobar have himself a night.

Very athletic outfield (Short, Greene, Williams) and the middle infielders (Escobar and Garcia) are supposed to be very good. I already called W-S to be our best affiliate team this year (pending promotions) They will be the Barons of last year (though of course not as loaded, just mean a real good record and a potential title) I like the Knights too, but I love W-S more.
April 9, 201016 yr Why did Hudson not start the AAA season for Charlotte? Late game scratch? I figured our #1 pitching prospect would be the #1 guy in the rotation.

I was wondering why when I checked back on this thread at like 1130 there were no replies or updates about how the minor league games went.. But I did click the link to that chat blog thing and it was pretty cool..
April 9, 201016 yr Charlotte lost 8-6. Harrell got lit up, Dolsi and Aquino not much better, Threets 0.2 IP clean. Flowers 2-4, HR, 2 R... Viciedo 2-4, R. JorDanks HR, 1-5. De Aza, Kroeger, Lillibridge with hits. B-Ham lost 4-2. Long started, 3 ER in 5.1 IP. Mabee gave up a run, Socolovich 2 scoreless. Morel doubled for the only XBH, Sanchez 2-4, Armstrong and Shelby with hits. W-S cruised to a 7-1 win. Edwards 6 IP, 1 ER, Remenowsky 2 IP scoreless w/ 3 K, Infante 1 IP scoreless. Tons of offense... Escobar 4-5, 2 2B, 2 RBI... Brandon Short 2-5, HR, 2B... Phegley 2 hits... KWJR solo HR... Loman and Greene with hits. Kanny rained out. I'm surprised by who started for each team. Harrell over Hudson, Long over Shirek, Edwards over Leesman and Griffith.
