NCsoxfan Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 A great benefit of my job is my building overlooks the Durham Bulls park. I just walked over and caught a few innings of the game. A few comments: -Jhonny Nunez was absolutely blowing people away. I think his strike out on desmond jennings was on a 95mph pitch. -Viciedo looked terrible against the Bulls good ppitcher (de la rosa??), but hit a solid single off the "blue monster" in a later inning. Beautiful day outside, wish i could stay the whole time!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Johnny Nunez with 10 K to 0 BB in 7 IP so far? That's nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruney not getting the ks but so far getting the outs. Looking at his history it seems he does well until he hits ths show. I'm assuming he has some pitching talent but hasn't played well at the major league level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Barons won 7-4 Kuhn staying hot. Dash lost 5-4 in 12 Martinez 2-3, 2 2B Wilkins' first HR Rienzo 5 IP, 2 R (ER), 7 K, 2 BB, 6 H Kanny won 6-5 Another strong start for Petricka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 There are a few arms in the lower minors that have me genuinely excited. I really like Rienzo and Petricka, and Reed seems to have good stuff too. Does Reed project as a starter long-term? It seems from everything I've read he has the necessary pitches to do so, but he pitched mostly out of the bullpen for Great Falls and has done so with Kanny too.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Really encouraging seeing Martinez get off to a great start. He's always had the physical tools and frame to develop. That injury really a few years back really was devastating though. Basically cost him two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Just checking on my AAP, weird that Remenowsky hasn't pitched in like 4 or 5 days. I wonder if Tyler Kuhn can be what CJ Retherford was supposed to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 There ya go Wilkins! Hopefully first of many HR this year. He needs to get that batting average up, and his walk rate is not what it used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
