Danish and Fulmer scheduled

Didn't go well for Danish

Davidson has been consistently average to above average the past few months. Maybe he could net us someone like Addison Reed from a seller in July.

Didn't go well for Danish

Nor for the offense: shut out by Lucas Harrell. Yikes.

On a positive note, the Bham bats came alive today, and Fulmer had another excellent start.

 

His inconsistency is painful to see, but its better than just being bad.

Eddy Alvarez average is still on the incline!

 

 

Got it up to .238!

 

Batting .361 in June.

I am excited about Michalczewski as a prospect. He is up to .250 average in AA as a 21 year old. In 2/3 years we could have our next 3B, hopefully he continues to trend upwards

The 28%K rate is concerning but the fact that he is so young for that level and a switch hitter are very encouraging signs. Power is always the last tool to develop and the fact that he is over a .400 slugging is impressive considering he is at Birmingham.

NorthSideSox did a good breakdown of why he was gonna start trending up in a thread a while back.

This is why many didn't drop him from our top 10

Recap posted. Great starting pitching from Fulmer, Lowry, Thompson, and Gallegos. Michalczewski, Hawkins, and Alvarez all homer.

Honestly beginning to wonder if we should call up Davidson and send Avi down.

Would be smart to give us another guy who can play 3B/1B on the roster. We can start Saladino in the field more and start DHing Frazier, Abreu, and Lawrie sometimes then other games start Davidson at DH

Right, he would be much preferable from that standpoint.

 

I wouldn't mind giving the guy a drink of the bigs. He's hung in there. Has to be a mind trip to be so close to your dream and it falling apart.

Exactly my thought process.

Instead of bringing up Davidson, why don't they actually give Coats a look, since he's already on the roster? He's likely to hit much better than Davidson would, plus Coats can actually play the outfield.

Right, I said Davidson over Garcia.

And I'm saying Davidson would be a mess, and I'd rather see Coats over Garcia and leave Davidson in Charlotte. But that's just my view.

Eh, that's a little over the top. He will probably hit well in a short time, but I don't think he's a rest of the season answer. I'm rooting for Davidson though. Kid has held his own in the big leagues before with Arizona.
