Birmingham has the night off. Tonight's scheduled starters are:

AAA Volstad (facing off against former White Sox prospect Kanekoa Texeira)

A+ Leyer

A Easterling

R Hansen

 

Hansen is 2-0 with 1.75 ERA in 5 starts for Great Falls. He has walked 6 and struck out 42 in 25.2 innings while limiting the opposition to a .129 average.

Hansen was effectively wild and had nearly as many balls as strikes. I'm planning on talking to him and his pitching coach soon, I have a feeling they are really taking it slow with his mechanics before promoting him.

I have to say, I'm optimistic about this year's draft choices. Some exciting talent that may actually be something.

Here is hoping it can rival the '11 draft of the red sox

 

Barnes

Swihart

Owens

Bradley

Betts

Noe Ramirez

Shaw

 

thats a hell of a draft class.

Yeah it has been a bit strange but maybe they have a defensive instructor in GF that they like to work with Fisher first.

That could make some sense because it seems that his bat has nothing left to prove in GF anymore, maybe someone blocking him in Kanny is another reason, but I'd like to see him get some time in Kanny before the year is up.

Brandon Quintero having a nice game for AZL Sox.

 

5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 7 K.

 

13 IP, 6 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 11 K so far. He is 22 though.

 

Quintero looked like maybe a sleeper last year, but he got hurt and didn't start his 2016 until the last few weeks.

Any reason why Jameson promoted yet?

 

The reason Fisher, and even Schnurbusch, aren't going up yet is there's nowhere to play them. The Kanny outfield already has Call, Adolfo and Rodriguez (all legit prospects), plus Tyler Sullivan (who is fringy but worth playing). Too much of a crowd. One of them needs to move up to make room. Sullivan won't get in a prospect's way, but those other three aren't going to get benched for another prospect.
