July 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 06:54 PM) This is not sourced or anything, but I would guess high 80s with the fastball and a solid change-up and curveball. Has the quintessential Minnesota Twins prospect look. Not going to overpower you, throws strikes and doesn't beat himself. He can get up to 92-93 with the fastball.
July 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 10:08 PM) Brady Shoemaker's progression. April: .295/.357/.420/.778 May: .301/.333/.485/.819 June: .333/.454/.573/1.027 July: .391/.576/.565/1.141 (so far) Kid is ready to make the jump if there's an opening. There was, but they promoted John Spatola.

You think that with the non-production in WS' outfield (Colligan/Spatola/Mitchell), there has to be room for Shoemaker SOMEWHERE in there. He's due. Especially since the Dash promoted Jose Martinez to AA Birmingham. Someone has to take that spot. Edited July 8, 201114 yr by OilCan
July 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) Cooper was on the radio Sunday night and gave them both shout-outs. You never know, but they might have to make room on the 40-man for that to happen. According to his Uncle Mike, Terry is eligible for the Rule 5 draft after this year.

I'm kind of shocked that the Dash didn't promote Gac yet, although he just may be a roster filler, 20 HR is 20 HR in any league. Does he play the OF or is he strictly a DH?

Which means either the Sox better put him on the 40, or a team with a losing record, with nothing to lose, may give him a shot at starting. (Houston, hello!)

July 8, 201114 yr Jesus Dexter Carter.. what did SD do to your head kid. You dominated this league just two years ago. Oh and here is Birmingham's box score. http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...mobaax_biraax_1 Edited July 8, 201114 yr by SoxAce
