Yesterday was the first day in quite some time we haven't had one of these. Maybe because Minor League Splits is doing such a fantasic job.
Today we found out Villalona went down for 4 weeks with a quadrcep injury.
Pitching Today: Cortes, JC Ramirez, Jeff Allison, J. C. Sulbaran, Dave Bush (Rehab), Kyle Davies (rehab), Martin Perez, Robbie, Ross, Eric Arnett.
For a complete (or more complete) list, check out Splits.
Duel of the Day: Rome v Greenville,Randall Delgado vs. Steven Fife.
Since there wasn't a post yesterday, here are some nice lines.
Latos: 5IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 7 SO
Paker: 5 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 3 BB, 5 SO
Alverez: 2-3 2B BB, ZERO SO (YAY) 3R
Jaff Decker 3-4, 2B BB, 3R
Chris Heisey 3-6 HR, 2B, 4RBI

Tullis; Font

Font really seems to have gotten his control going lately, just 5 BB in his last 5 appearances (22.1 IP).

Just wanted to say that I love these threads...
It’s the main reason why I come back each day, so thanks to everyone who keeps it going!
Meanwhile, Latos is awesome. So where do people think he’ll end up in the top 100 if he ends the year with a sub 1 WHIP, sub 2 ERA, 1k/IP, and under 2 BB/9?
I’m thinking it’d be tough to keep him out of the top ten if he posts a line like that. What do you think?

If he has an ERA under 2 in AA, sure
But I don’t think he will. He’s a terrific prospect, but probably more in the 20-30 range than top 10

He's in the top 15
And maybe the top 10 if Bumgarner and Tillman get the call this year at some point.
they're not calling up Bumgarner or Alderson this year
so says vice president of baseball operations Bobby Evans in a radio interview

Martin Perez
5 inn, 2 R (0 ER), 5 K, 4 H, 2 BB. On pace for the win too would put him at 4-5. On pace to be a top-40 or 30 prospect in my opinion.

Brock Bond
SF Giants 2B playing at AA Connecticut as a 24 year old (born on 9-11-85).
3-3, 2B, BB.
Season Line is mildly impressive:
.333, 88-264, 9 2B, 3 3B, 1 HR, 24 RBI, 37 BB, 37 K, 11 SB, 11 CS (ouch).
Slash Line is .333/.425/.402 (.827 OPS for you math whizzes).

Tyler Flowers and Chris Marrero
Flowers: 1-2, HR, 2BB
Marrero: 1-3, K

Cubs
Iowa 11-5 up on Oklahoma City in the 8th.
Tennessee got smashed by Montgomery 15-1.
Casey Coleman – 3.1 ip, 7 h, 2 bb, 1 K, 5 earned runs, 2 unearned. One of his worst starts of the year.
Daytona played 2 vs. Tampa, winning 2-0 in game 1
Starlin Castro: 1/3, R, SB.
Brandon Guyer: 1/3.
Josh Vitters: 1/3, R.
Daytona lost game 2 2-1.
Dan McDaniel: 5 ip, 4 h, 2 bb, 3 K’s, 2 earned runs.
Peoria lost to Great Lakes 7-6.
Austin Bibens-Dirkx – 5.1 ip, 3 h, 2 K’s. Okay, he’s a retread signed from Indy League, but 5.1 shutout is something to note.
David Macias – 3/5, 2 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 K.
Ryan Flaherty – 2/4, 2 R, 1 K. After two down months, he seems to be heating up again.
Rebel Ridling – 2/3, 1 R, 1 BB, 1 K.
Kyler Burke – 2/4, 1 R, 1 HR, 4 RBI.
Boise and Vancouver are 0-0 in the 2nd. Cubs are throwing a good young lefty arm in Jeffry Antigua.
DSL Mets beat DSL Cubs2 11-6.
Joel Altagracia – 1/3, R, 2B, RBI, BB, K. Day after his first big game (4/5, 3 R, 2 2B, 1 HR, 3 RBI), he followed up with a solid outing. He was the Cubs main Latin American item last year.
DSL Cubs1 beat DSL Padres 10-0.
Albert Hernandez – 3/5, 3 R, 1 K. Two straight years of being a plus hitter in the DSL ranks. Would love to seem him stateside next year.

Travis Wood?
He’s been getting a lot of love lately (#5 on BA Hot Sheet) and for good reason, posting a ridiculous, seriously, RIDICULOUS 1.29 ERA with a 95/37 K/BB rate over 112 IP in AA-Carolina. We are leaving small sample-size territory with wood, he’s always had the talent to be a frontline pitcher and to be doing what he’s doing at AA as a 22-year-old southpaw really is exciting.
My question is — What’s his ceiling and how does he compare to Zach Stewart?
Thanks
