Score another one for the Cinderella Kid

He’ll get promoted to Brevard real soon if he keeps doing that.

He's extremely quick and good.

Huntsville game

Mat Gamel has two triples and a HR; Angel Salome has three hits, including a double and a homer; LaPorta has a double, and Michael Brantley got on base three times (one walk).

Here’s the box score for the game so far.

He's extremely quick and good.

when you start on the far side of suck

you’re almost guaranteed to regress back to suck.

unless you are brent brewer.

Also, cheese.

It's surprising they draft this way

players who are bad defensively are not gritty.

I read one characterization of zduriencik

that he likes big power—lighttower power hitters and big power arms.

upside: prince, braun, maybe braddock?

downside: mark rogers, a system full of third basemen who don’t know where first base is.

Also, cheese.

Taylor Green is a fair third baseman

The Brewers definitely don’t go for “well-rounded” guys often, with LaPorta being the prime example of that. They saw the best power bat in the draft and took him way above where anyone else would have.

He's extremely quick and good.

Maybe Don Money is helping

or is that me foolishly buying into the propaganda?

I remember one article that mentioned that his problem was throwing and not fielding. Shouldn’t that be correctable? There is Rickie though.

Maybe the field is better quality, too

Some of the lower-minors infields are pretty poor, aren’t they?

Yeah

But Gamel is pretty notorious for bad footwork and throwing mechanics, same as Braun.

He's extremely quick and good.

by battlekow on Apr 28, 2008 12:35 AM CDT up reply actions  

that's part of it,

but I think that field quality is vastly overstated. there are a couple of guys (chris constancio comes to mind) who talk about it nonstop. I’m hoping to do some work on minor league defense that will allow me do level-to-level translations and park factors and maybe isolate that sort of thing.

Also, cheese.

Huntsville won in the bottom of the 9th

Groundout by Gamel followed by a walkoff homer for Chris Errecart.
