ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Is it just me, or has it seemed like Flowers has not been playing much lately? Did not play the 18th, 20th, 22nd, 25th, or 28th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not play the 18th, 20th, 22nd, 25th, or 28th. He may be taking days off to work on specific things in pre-workout or post-game, so they may be resting him for some of those days.

ThunderBolt Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Robert Hudson is hitting really well for AAA. I don't see it lasting, and we still need to draft middle-infield depth, but it's good to see him hitting well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPN366 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 12:26 PM) I think they're geared toward school field trips. When the Barons play early day games (11AMCT), it's considered "kids day." There was 5,000 kids in GA last Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean Brady Shoemaker goes back to Kannapolis? Who dropped off the W-S roster? Also, I thought Cheatham wasn't really a starter anyway.

NorthSideSox72 Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Tyson Corley not responding to the promotion too well. 1 IP in 2 outings, given up 4 ER. Tyler Kuhn keeps hitting, still over .300. I have yet to ever find any scouting info on that guy, but he seems to consistently hit for average at every level, good contact rate, and can play a number of positions. Anyone know anything about him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Flowers is alive. He just got an AB replacing Castro (another reason for less PT) and made an out, at .264 now. So Donny Lucy's days are numbered in Chicago...but he actually acquitted himself quite well offensively and opened some eyes in the organization. Only five hits for the Knights, pretty hard to get excited about Harrell, Elarton or Whisler. Retherford taking another 0 for....down to .215, bright spot is Hudson's 2/3, unfortunately, we have the WRONG Hudson in our organization, no disrespect to Robert.

maggsmaggs Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Charlis Birdie is allergic to base hits (in a good way). He just doens't like to give them up. I wonder what kind of stuff he has, but he dominated last year in Kanny and did well in WS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please. Escobar has 1 more extra base hit on the season in the exact same number of at-bats (81). (Meanwhile, Gilmore has 12 more hits.) Superior patience?? Escobar has a grand total of 2 more walks... and he's struck out 4 more times than Gilmore. Plus Gilmore is 6'3" 195 lbs... Escobar is 5'10" and 150 pounds. Extremely doubtful that Escobar will EVER have anywhere near the power Gilmore does. Edited April 29, 2010 by scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya not sure about your power argument. (Hell Gilmore has 5 XBH to Escobars 6 so it isn't night and day better here) But defensively, you would have a point. Both Gilmore and Short though have been very good. Both guys can go 0 for their next 20, and still be hitting over .300 Edited April 29, 2010 by SoxAce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weren't we comparing their numbers for the year? 2 more walks is 25% more walks. 2 more doubles is 33.33% more doubles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
