Timmy U

Zavala 2-2, 2b, HR, bb. Pallette and Murphy combine for 9IP 3H 2r 2ER 5bb 13K. Dash win in extras 3-2.

Chone Baldwin added a double. Playing 3b tonight. Currently hitting .360 with a .940 OPS.

I would say so. Question is super sub or shot to be a regular.

Robert ended 1-2 with a HR and a K. Like the power but the 50% K rate worries me.

Some guy named Robert Jr. homered for ACL Sox

Gonzalez and Baldwin both 2-3. That new pairing is off to a great start.

McDaniel was an UDFA from U of Mississippi. College teammate of Calvin Harris, Elko, and Jacob Gonzalez.

Fair enough. But Baldwin does lead the Southern League in batting, and OBP. He's third in OPS. And he has a very nice 19/25 bb/K ratio. There's nothing to indicate he's going to struggle as he goes up a level. Compare that to Elko and Veras whose bb/K ratios are 5/45 and 4/45 respectively.

Sean Burke got tattooed in ACL. 5 runs in 2/3 of an inning. Wolkow 2-2 with a walk.

I bet they rotate between short and second and Baldwin gets reps at 3b. He can play 7 positions.

Thorpe is done. 5.2 1H 0R 0ER 2bb 7K. After a rough 1st inning, there was only one other base runner: an error by Baldwin.

HR Baldwin

Schultz is done 4IP 3H 2R 2ER 1bb 4K.

Thorpe struggled in the opening inning again. He threw 30 pitches a single and two walks. K's 2. 0-0. Schultz hasn't had his best stuff tonight. A couple of balls hit pretty hard. It's 2-2.

Wolkow’s HR the game winner in top of the 7th. ACL Sox win 6-5.

Wolkow HR.

Old friend Luis Mieses is 2-2 with 2 walks for the ACL Rangers. One imagines this is a tune up and they are going to send him to AA.

5-0 now. Abraham Nunez Jr. 2-2. HR by one of Sox inexhaustible supply of Hernandezes, in this case Angelo, a catcher.

Mogollon with a double then pinch run for. I imagine he is probably hurt. Too bad. He was starting to hit. 3-0 ACL Sox.

Early start for ACL. Wolkow double, Adrian Gil drives him in. Gil was arguably their bast hitter in the DSL last year and has been arguably their best hitter in the ACL so far. He plays some third, some first. I'd feel better about calling him a prospect if he could stick at third. 1-0 ACL Sox.

The Yankees caught a break missing both Fedde and Crochet. Other 3 in the Sox rotation are not happening, especially the Keller/Soroka spot.

Enjoy him while you can because the Sox are going to trade any veteran who has any value whatsoever.

I would probably need something like Emerson, Montes, and Farmelo to give up Robert. I would prefer to keep him, however.

Not even cash. Sox traded international pool space (the right to spend $) in exchange for Batista and Maximo Martinez.

If they think he is 1b only, I hope they do not pick him. Rainer and Griffin both play premium positions, Montgomery is a + right fielder. It puts way too much pressure on the bat to be taking a 1b with a top 5 pick.
