1st homer on the year for Morel.

Brandon Short and Andy Garcia have 21 RBI's each now on the young season.

 

N. Griffith was pretty shaky, Remenowsky continues to pitch well (although I'll never forget the time someone called the post-game last year and wanted him promoted immediately from A ball like he was Scott Radinsky, Boone Logan or Dwight Gooden).

 

Gilmore, Lewis and J. Greene continue to hit well into the mid 300's.

 

Trayce Thompson with .963 OPS, that's wonderful for a player one year removed from HS playing in the SAL...

Shirek is just rolling now. He's got trade bait written all over him.

Rem actually isn't pitching that well. He was, but then he had 2 or 3 bad outings in a row at the end of April, which I've never seen him do before. His ERA got up into the mid-3's. But he did calm down nicely in this last outing. He's also walking a few more guys than he did last year. If I had to guess, I think they have worked him into a little bit more velocity, but he's struggling a bit trying to control it. He's not having a bad season, but he's not been quite as dominant as last year, to this point.

He's what, 24 now, in AA? Bah, that's the kind of guy we do trade, and it's the kind of guy who seems to wind up coming back in a few years as a bullpen guy to hurt us.

He's been a starter his whole minor league career, but I do tend to believe he's eventually a reliever. His numbers seem to suggest that he runs out of gas late in the year, and he's highly reliant on his fastball. I'd say his future role is likely as a setup guy.

Sounds like the kind of guy we do tend to trade. So, what you're saying is...Adam Dunn is coming here!?

From what I've heard the org likes Shirek. He's got a nice arm and has a shot. Obviously the one issue is the so called depth in our rotation, especially since I don't see Hudson getting moved. The org is very high on him.

Whatever happened to Omogrosso? I thought he looked really good in ST 2009, and then he's kind of fallen off the map....

 

I'm guessing it's either injury/ies or non-performance? Sorry, haven't been following the minors as close as some of you on a daily and weekly basis, trying to catch back up to speed these days after the offseason of kind of "tuning out."

He had an injury, and surgery, I think on his shoulder. Missed most of a season I believe.

And IIRC, Omogrosso has had tommy john before, so between a bum shoulder and a surgically repaired elbow the odds are stacked.

 

And a tumor removed from his finger back in 2008. He showed me the scar.

Was that you, NorthSide? :P

Surprisingly no, I would not have suggested that. He may have been great last year, but he was still in A-ball, that would be ridiculous. Rad and Logan were both specialists filling a need that the team had a deep hole in. Rem is not that guy.
