after stealing 2 bases and walking and a bunt single , anyone know if he was hurt?

Not sure what happened in that game…but if you look at the recap there were a ton of defensive switches even during the innings. A few of them happened even before Gordon was replaced…was kinda odd looking at the recap.

maybe they figured game was over so give some guys a break but didnt they have an off day the day before? i was just curious , was about to add Gordon to my team then saw that and thought twice.

Personal fave Vinny Mazzaro is on the mound facing the White Sox tonight! Gets through the first two batters okay, gives up a first pitch single to Dye, walks Thome on 3-2, gets Konerko to pop up.

Throwing tons of fastballs, but they’re nice ones . . .92-94 MPH and movement, trying to be cute with the strike zone corners but he’ll learn.

8 innings, 6 hits, 2ER, 0BB, 3K and takes the L - he is officially a giant

each with a pair of bombs

3 hrs last 2 games , but didnt play tonight?

there’s an interesting subtext to this. prior to tonight, the scouting report on bastardo was as soft-tosser. BA has him sitting 88-91, topping out at 93. but they also said his changeup was his best pitch. coming into today, the only things we really knew about bastardo was that his changeup was his best pitch, and that his name means exactly what it sounds like.

fast forward to tonight, and he threw 102 pitches. 88 of them were fastballs 90 MPH or greater. the only guy who touched him was adrian gonzalez, but noone was prepared for this guy.

okay, maybe not. Peoria v. Beloit was suspended and will be finished tomorrow.

Daytona loses 6-1 to Sarasota. Nothing interesting on the pitching front.

Tony Campana - 2/4.
Starlin Castro - 1/3, 1 R, 1 BB, 2 E.
Robinson Chirinos - 1/1, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 HBP.
Jericho Jones - 1/1.
Jovan Rosa - 0/4, 1 K.

2cents: Tossed Chirinos in there due to his 4 hr’s in 2 days. Jones is a young power hitting OF that was bumped up from XST recently. Keep wishing that Rosa could string together a little hot streak, but still hot and cold.

Tennessee loses 1-0 to Carolina in 10.

Casey Coleman - 6.2 shutout, 8 h, 5 bb, 2 K’s.
Brandon Guyer - 0/4, 1 K.
Darwin Barney - 0/4, 1 K.
Blake Lalli - 1/4.
Tony Thomas - 1/4.
Welington Castillo - 1/4, 2 K’s.

2cents: No runs is no runs, but eh. Lalli’s cooling off a bit. At least Thomas didn’t K.

Iowa loses to Nashville, 3-0.

Esmailin Caridad - 6 ip, 5 h, 3 r, 1 bb, 1 K, 1 HBP.
Justin Berg - 2 ip, 1h, 1 bb, 2K.
Steve Clevenger - 0/4, 2 K.
Sam Fuld - 1/4.

2cents: I’m fine with Caridad’s outing. At least he’s got his control settled a bit, which was a problem earlier. Berg/Fuld are both on the 40 man, so to that extent, they bear some watching (okay, I’m just trying to put more than 1 name for AAA). Clevenger hasn’t found his stroke for AAA yet.

Stud: 2-4, 2 HR, K.

35/25 BB/K for the season.

Rather good again.

7-5-2-0-3

5 ip, 7 h, 2 r, 1 bb, 1 k, 12/1 go/ao

55 ip, 37 h, 1 hr, 22 bb, 33 k, 4.5 go/ao.

I’ve never been the groundball fetishist a lot of people around here are, but I find this guy fascinating. I know he’s got a great sinker, but does anyone know if he’s made any progress on his secondary stuff?
