scenario Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 20, 2009 -> 06:28 PM) Garrett Johnson, after starting the season strong as a 20 year old, has been in utter meltdown lately. He sure got his butt handed to him today, didn't he? Brutal. 4 innings; 11 earned runs on 12 hits in the first game of the double-header. And it looks like the second game has potential to be just as ugly. Kanny losing 5-2 in the second inning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Huddy!!!! So far 4 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 K.... He's having a really good debut in Birmingham, hopefully he keeps it up for another 2-3 innings! I think his timetable has jumped from maybe 2011 from the beginning of the season to maybe even at the beginning of 2010 now. Also, Viciedo with a homer to tie the game up!

BearSox Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Huddy through 6: 3 H, 1 R (unearned), 1 BB, 6 K, 81 P (54 strikes)... So far, you couldn't have asked for a better debut, and hopefully he keeps it up until he's taken out. Birmingham has also taken the lead thanks to a wild pitch!

bighurt4life Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Viciedo getting an intentional walk. That's good to see him getting some respect with a runner in scoring position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Daniel Hudson is going to get the win for Birmingham. 7 innings, 3 hits, 1 run, 0 er, 2 bb, 8 so This guy is on the fast track. This is a lot like Brandon McCarthy in 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chisoxfan09 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 (edited) Kewl, Hudson really shined in his debut tonight. Beginning of 2010 sounds rather quick. Maybe AFL after the season and if he does a ST invite. Kid is only 22. Edited June 21, 2009 by chisoxfan09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chisoxfan09 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Fernando Hernandez mopping up. He has 11 saves but this is not a save situation. JP is he on track for a Charlotte promo?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Ima focus on now the best prospect in our minors IMO (since Beckham is up, and some people who would say Poreda... he's up too) Viciedo. And I know a few here agree with me (I know Jas would say Danks, couple say Flowers etc.) April: .234/.304/.387/.691 May: .293/.314/.397/.711 June: .301/.350/.466/.816 Increased homers, walks, etc.. every month. I would say he's quickly adjusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a Huddy Homer for a while, and after a great debut vs. a very good Huntsville team, my homerism is off the charts right now.

JPN366 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Dayan's homer was opposite field, no doubter off the bat. Got a fist bump from John Ely, he was charting pitches in the stands, so I gave him props on his start last night. Hudson looked good, his fastball touched 98 at one point and was ranging from 92 to 96 consistently. It actually got faster as the game went on. His change was in the mid 80's. He threw something that was in the 70's too, don't know what it is though. One thing that I saw that concerned me, but may be no big deal...his arm motion, which is three quarters, seemed to put a lot of pressure on his elbow. Of course, it may be nothing.

Beginning of 2010 sounds rather quick. Maybe AFL after the season and if he does a ST invite. Kid is only 22. Please keep this kid out of the AFL! That could end up becoming a horrific mistake and there's zero reason for it. None whatsoever. Send the crap pitchers, or your relief prospects, or the guys you're going to try to trade over the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought only his college buddy Dexter had that kind of velocity and stuff (that's why I was higher on Dex than the intangibles of Huddy) I gotta say that changes alot in my eyes.

Damn, I just posted the same thing. I read some stuff online about them while they were tearing up rookie ball and I could have sworn it was Hudson that was the suprise, possible #3-4 guy and Dexter Carter was the one to watch out for. Maybe you read whatever I read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great to hear. I knew (or rather heard) that he was getting his fastball up to about 95, but wasn't expecting him to be getting much higher than that. Was the higher velocity fastball his 2 seamer with the life or a 4 seamer without much life that he added? Cause if he was touching 98 and getting up to around 95-96 with the running fastball he has.... damn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
