So what you are saying is not a good day for the minor leaguers

It really looks like Huntsville is going to miss the playoffs. Pretty sad with how much talent has been on that team this year. On the plus side that means that September callups might happen early for Gamel, Escobar and the boys. That is if Gamel and the boys get the on 40 man…

In my book, a good day for the minor leaguers is one in which Carlos George does not commit an error

His team may not have played, but, you know, baby steps.

Also Chris Dennis has 10 homers at Helena, impressive showing for him so far.

And neck size to baby eating ratio.

And only 4 doubles+triples!

I wonder what happened to DiFelice

Recap says he gave up 6 straight hits. I wonder if his back was/is bothering him or it was just one of those days.

Featured Poll

Poll
Who is the Brewers' top prospect?
  • Brett Lawrie - Cana-DUH!
  • Mat Gamel - A great pure hitter who could potentially play a position of need.
  • Alcides Escobar - The Brewers sorely need his defensive wizardry and contact-hitting approach. He also solves the 3B hole by shifting J.J. over.
  • Jonathan Lucroy - The best catching prospect in the system by virtue of the fact that he can actually catch. His hitting numbers at Brevard are very good on the face of it, but even better after accounting for Space Coast Stadium.
  • Angel Salome - He's leading a Huntsville team that's loaded with prospects in all three slash stats, and he has the tools to be a good defensive catcher.
  • Jeremy Jeffress - The only real pitching prospect in a sea of hitters, Jeffress could potentially ease the pain of losing two aces by blossoming into one himself.
  • Carlos George - Hey, Derek Jeter can't play defense either.
