The Prospect/Minor Leagues Thread

[theblujay]

I'm really excited for the end of June when the SS teams start. Also maybe our guys playing well now will be promoted by then.

It wouldn't make sense to piggyback Stroman, he's had a history of larger workload during college, and he's already been going through extended Spring Training.

Maybe he will start and it's just that NH's website hasn't been updated? I doubt they'd piggyback, they've only ever done that in the low minors.

 

 

This is what I'm hoping for, like I said before, it's not like Stroman's been injured and Walden's a prospect. I'm sure you're right.

[theblujay]

So we are really trying to make Stroman a starter? I like it!

[ElNik2013]

It's been updated, it now shows Stroman starting for NH.

[theblujay]

Nice! Really excited for him.

 

Is there any chance he sticks as a starter?

Stroman scoreless 1st 2k's

[Caper]

Any where to listen to fishercats game?

[ElNik2013]

1-2-3 second w/2ks

[theblujay]

Stroman looking good through 2. Pillar 0-2

[Caper]

Doesn't seem like anyone has hit Stroman hard today.

[Caper]

Stilson just made his AAA debut

GO, BB, (deep) FO, and a SO of Gordon Beckham to end the inning

 

Wow... A David Purcey sighting.

[Caper]

Thole just threw out a baserunner going to 2nd.... I can't remember the last time JPA threw someone out.

Dont think this is posted but according to some no name on twitter:

 

After Daniel Norris walked the leadoff hitter, he picked him off and struck out the next 4 batters, hitting 97-98 on the gun. #Lugnuts

 

desperately trying to not put the bust label on him.

 

BTW, is there a reason why aaron sanchez is removed in 3rd inning?

[ElNik2013]

Stroman's final line: 5IP, 4H, 1BB, 6K, 3GO/4FO, 89 pitches.

 

Pretty good debut I'd say.

I think it's hard for us looking at box scores to really know what was going in. Last year he was giving up 5 or 6 runs a game and the evaluators were still giving good reports.... not just jays scouts either. I couldn't understand it.... but I guess I'll take their word. I've heard lefties take longer to develop.

It's interesting that they've been moving him along levels quite aggressively. He played in Blue Field and Vancouver last year and got promoted to Lansing this year whereas the big 3 last year stayed in Lansing all season. Let's hope he continues to improve.

[Angrioter]

Stroman top-50 for sure

[theblujay]

Great day for Stroman! Also I guess Norris had a good day. Maybe he isn't a bust after all...

I think its pretty well known that the Lansing gun is a few mph fast. But thats still 93-95 which is good.

Wow... A David Purcey sighting.

 

The Bisons beat up on Zach Stewart before getting around to making Purcey look bad.

Nice

 

@ShiDavidi: For all asking, Marcus Stroman throws five shutout innings, four hits, a walk, six Ks in New Hampshire's 7-4 win over New Britain.

what are the odds of him being in TO being the all star game?

I'd put it at 40%

with JJ and Happ gone, I could see it happening. it's gonna throw gas on a huge ego though.
