July 26, 201411 yr QUOTE (MnSoxFan @ Jul 26, 2014 -> 02:27 PM) Charlotte goes up against Axelrod in Game 1. I predict that one way or another, it's going to get ugly
July 26, 201411 yr Damn, is Charlotte's pitching bad. But the current lineup sure can hit. Edited July 26, 201411 yr by Stan Bahnsen

Several things need to be said as I hear this Charlotte = Coors Field drum being beaten repeatedly 1. They have always played in a bandbox. This isn't a radical change or even one as significant as the Barons switching from a very pitcher-friendly park to a hitter-friendly park. 2. A confounding factor in evaluating the home run statistic at the new park is that the pitchers on the Charlotte team are awful. Half the time you're looking at basically IL-worst pitchers going for the home team in Charlotte. 3. Most of the players of note on the Charlotte roster have hit better on the road.

Eh, Johnson and Wilkins have been better on the road, Davidson's been equivalent. Semien, Phegley and Danks have feasted at home. Lately, they're scoring well everywhere.
July 26, 201411 yr Seems like pitchers are pitching around Wilkins more. He's walked 3 times In the last 4 days.
July 26, 201411 yr Well, Semien (Beckham/Ramirez), Wilkins and Davidson are blocked at the moment....Johnson's still too young...and they already know what Danks can do. Then you have the Phegley defense/make-up or leadership concerns. Not sure how they're going to get playing time for Davidson with Konerko/Gillaspie/Abreu/Dunn, but it would be nice if Konerko volunteered to give up some of his at-bats the last two months.

Good that he's recognizing it and taking them. 1-1 in game 2. Davidson heading back toward Mendoza. I don't need to see him in Sept. Edited July 27, 201411 yr by Stan Bahnsen
July 27, 201411 yr Austin 3-4, 2B, RBI. Would love to see him get hot. IMO, He's the best catching prospect in our system (although I do like Barazza alot too).
July 27, 201411 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jul 26, 2014 -> 08:31 PM) Charlotte's night ending in 3, 2, 1 . . . Rough weather where you are?

July 27, 201411 yr Somebody on twitter is saying Rodon is starting. Buddy Bell said he would go an "Inning Plus" whatever that means. I guess an inning, plus whatever his pitch count is. Edited July 27, 201411 yr by flavum
July 27, 201411 yr Rough weather where you are? Constant thunder for about 20 minutes now, and I'm about 6 miles NNE of the stadium.
July 27, 201411 yr QUOTE (StRoostifer @ Jul 26, 2014 -> 08:35 PM) Let's not forget Kevan Smith. Depending on what you think of his age (considering Phegley is in AAA) and his rawness coming out.. I'm well aware though.

I know what you mean, man. I think what keeps Smith as a legit prospect is that he can hit, at least at Birmingham anyway. Like you, I'm going to be watching Austin close. Dude hit pretty well at NC.
July 27, 201411 yr Rodon pitching in the bottom of the 1st against the Mariners. No update yet. Slow. Guess it doesn't go at-bat by at-bat.
