Pretty impressive pitching performance from all the starters

Forgot to post this yesterday

Goldstein reveals why Chris Dennis failed to make the Wisconsin roster out of ST:

A 13th-round pick in 2007 out of Canada, Dennis is compactly built power hitter than comes with the rawness generally associated with those north of the border who simply don’t get as much experience as repetition as those from warmer weather climates. He missed the first six weeks of the year recovering from a nasty ankle sprain, but has been generating a lot of interest since showing up in the Midwest League, batting .407/.471/.763 in 17 games. With 16 strikeouts in 59 at-bats, a batting average like that is totally unsustainable, but scouts think the power, with includes four home runs and now nine doubles, is pretty darn real.

"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.
