for those who read AZ Phil religiously, you know he had himself some Josh Donaldson man-love.

Well since being traded, he had a .955 OPS with Stockton in the California League (Hi-A) in 188 AB's. He had a .625 OPS with Peoria in A-ball in 235 AB's.

to follow-up on that trade:

Epat had a .931 OPS with their AAA affiliate (Sacramento) and is with the big league club now (.507 OPS) 

Murton still can't hit an XBH to save his life (768 OPS in AAA with the A's to follow up his .780 OPS with Iowa). Sacramento is in the PCL playoffs and it's unclear whether he'll get another call-up this year.

Gallagher was shut down for a few weeks to rest a fatigued arm. He's due back on Friday, at least off the disabled list. A 6.55 ERA with the A's in 7 starts.

Vitters ends up with a .876 OPS in Boise with 5 HR's in 252 AB's, 12 BB/44 K Flaherty(Boise): .874 OPS with 8 HR in 215 AB's. 24 BB/50 K Colvin (Tennesee): .736 OPS/14 HR's in 540 AB's. 44 BB/101 K Pie (Iowa): .802 OPS.10 HR's in 335 AB's. 23 BB/54 K Ceda (Tennessee): 2-1, 2.08 ERA, 30.1 IP, 42 K, 14 BB, 2 HR (all in relief). Threw 84.2 IP overall between AA and Hi-A with 95 K's and 42 BB's. A little surprised they didn't' call him up to get some experience in the AAA playoffs. Veal (Tennessee): 5-10, 4.52 ERA, 145.1 IP, 123 K, 81 BB, 19 HR

Yup. Even with the constant disappointments that Colvin and Veal have brought us, Ceda and Vitters are easily top-25 NL prospects for 2009. Vitters could probably crack the top 10; however, of course, John "East Coast Bias" Sickels would tab them both as B- prospects. Also, I'm really glad I was wrong about Flaherty. He's looking more and more like a legit hitter, not in the Barney mold -- if he can stay at SS, we've got a major prospect for 2010 and beyond. Problem is, no one --and I mean it, no one-- thinks he can handle SS/2B. Maybe a Eric Patterson redux/clone?

I would have liked to ask him about the discussion the Padres announcers had after Maddux beat them last night. In short, Maddux's streak of 14 starts in a row without a win bothered them so much they wouldn't want him back.

Rob G., Boise's season isn't over. They still have two more games and tomorrow is their season finale!

"O Soto! Geovany Soto an Oriole and other notes from around the web." I was not amused by this little headline when I visited TCR tonight. Perhaps some better wording might prevent more heart attacks.

2-0 in the top of the first...2 run HR off Jackson, the first off of him in Daytona in 17 IP.

You're not just born knowing how to do that shit. It takes years and years of practice to make sure you have the least productive at-bats in crucial moments as possible.

Submitted by Raisin101 on Wed, 09/03/2008 - 09:54 pm

Rob G., Jericho Jones (OF) and John Contreras (DH) made the AZL postseason all-star team from Mesa. No clue how Micah Hoffpauir didn't make the PCL one.

http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080825&conten… yeah, weird...but Eric Patterson did!! Joe Koshansky of Colorado was the PCL first basemen, did lead the league in RBI's and third in HR's. Just a matter of playing time for Hoffpauir it looks like. Nelson Cruz won the MVP. Let's see if we got all the postseason honors in one place: PCL: Postseason All-Star: Eric Patterson Manager of the Year: Pat Listach Southern: Postseason All-Stars: Doug Deeds, Jake Fox and Nate Spears FSL Postseason All-Stars: James Adduci Midwest League Nothing Northwest League Postseason All-Stars: Josh Vitters, Ryan Flaherty, Josh Harrison, Ryan Keedy Rookie League Postseason All-Stars: Jericho Jones, John Contreras

    per Tribune: Suzuki MRI results pending from yesterday so we should get a timetable for return later today.

    suzuki says he injured his oblique running to 1st, not swinging.  okay.  it's gonna be that kind of 2024 cubs year, huh?

    i would say that's good news compared to screwing it up swinging, but i'm not familiar with the recovery time of people screwing up their oblique by running.

    right side is at least different from his left side oblique injury last year.

    A bit more Jewish take on one of my favorite Cubs, Kenny Holtzman. His 9-0 season while serving in the National Guard and being available to pitch on weekends was one of my coolest teen recollections.

    Suzuki out with oblique strain. Canario indeed is called up. No word on Morel so that might be a red herring (or a red digit).

    AZ lineup is posted but Counsell is always late to post his lineup.

    Best hitter: IL with oblique strain

    Second best hitter: hasn’t looked the same since jamming his right hand during a swing

    Third best hitter: playing through a sore hammy

    Best pitcher: IL after one start 

    Second best RP: IL after 1.5 weeks

    right oblique strain.  ow.  that's generally more than a 10d thing.
