Ang, you better give us reports of Gudino, Severino, Freddy Rodriguez everyday!

 

Wonder where Lizardo is?

 

I'll be there!!

[GD]

Hansel is a guy I'm really curious about.

[GD]

I mean in terms of how he'll perform, but thanks regardless lol.

[theblujay]

[Angrioter]

Interesting note from BP chat:

 

Chris (Toronto): More likely to be the Blue Jays' number 1 prospect by the end of the year Aaron Sanchez or Dan Norris?

 

Ben Carsley: Sanchez. Norris is a mid-rotation starter for me.

[Ziggyy108]

Sanchez blasted again.

 

Shoulda got The Shark before the season!!!!!!

[Caper]

Taylor Cole spun another gem

7IP 3H 0ER 0BB 9K

 

Could Cole go to AA in place of Boyd?

[z3r0s]

Matt Boyd sent back down to Dunedin

 

I wonder why he lost his control at the higher level. Hard to tell from just numbers if he just wasn't attacking the zone (scared of better hitters), which could cause higher BB rates and more hits as he falls behind, or if he just couldn't throw strikes for some other reason.

Waasn't sure where to ask this but does anyone have KLaw's updated prospect list?

I've got #3, #4, #14, and one HM (Meyer) in the DDL... suck it! XD

[theblujay]

Seeing Giolito and Shipley on that top 25 list hurts. And Syndergaard of course

[ace3113]

Nice start for the Lizard. Do we know if he's still switch-hitting or if he's only hitting from the left side now? His righty swing is supposed to be not that great, but obviously he's young.

Crawford too. I can't blame them on that one though. I underrated Crawford's bat big time.

[Angrioter]

No idea. He's listed as a switch hitter but I guess Ang could find out in the next few days.

What side of the plate was he hitting from when you saw him batting this afternoon?

 

One of the Toronto coaches told me last year that possibly we only will see Bryan bat from the left side.

 

also

"-He play the 3B like a elite shortstop (He mentioned Jeter and I laughed in his face)

-Quick hands

-He will hit for pop thanks to his quick hands and body.

-He will play in USA very soon."

I could not watch him hit. I only saw the opening and I had to go (My wife hate baseball)

[GD]

You're the best Ang

[Angrioter]

Sounds like you need a new wife.

 

lol His younger brother is good at baseball but he's very slow. He's 17.

[GD]

Before the end of the season, Ang will have "set up" King with one of his nieces. Book it.

BA says he has the potential to be an elite defender at third, like a Beltre. I compare him to Blalock for the lefty bat and good glove.

[Angrioter]

Your wifes younger brother?

 

My wife brotha.

 

LH hitter OF, 6'2" 170 Lb (Ronald Guzman type of kid)

-Contact hitter (Zero swing-miss)

-Great great plate discipline and not wide his strike zone (Thanks to me!)

-Avg pop.

 

 

Tools (From my point of view)

Hit - 6/8

Pop - 5/8

Speed - 4/8 (Their great problem)

D - 5/8 (Because of the speed)

Arm - 4/8

 

The scouts are delighted when they see him in the batting practice, but when they look him at the defense they are .............disappointed.

[Angrioter]

ITT: Ang gives us a scouting report of his brother in law

 

Do any teams have interest in signing him?

 

Jose Serra, from the Cubs (Starlin Castro, Wellington Castillo, Rafael Dolis, Arismendy Alcantara, Junior Lake, Felix Pie)

 

He told me "I like the kid a lot, and he's your little brother but.......... he's too slow and we can't sign him as a 1B with just 17 years old; we (Cubs) don't signed 1B, LF or reliever of 17 years old"

[Angrioter]

25 pitchers first inning with a walk = Drabek-esque
