The Prospect/Minor Leagues Thread

[Deadpool]

Thank you for your help with my grammar

 

But I still do not understand why Gruber loves Goins but not Pillar

 

If you love Don Mattingly you should love Will Clark

 

If you love Justin Smoak maybe you love Ike Davis as well

 

If you love Gustava Chacin you should love Josh Towers

 

If you love Ryan Goins I think you should love Kevin Pillar

 

Is it just me that reads all of Olerud's posts as though they're poorly formed haikus?

[HERPDERP]

sooo is this guy worth anything or is he an orgfiller?

maybe he can turn to Loup one day...

If you like deceptive lefties who throw in the mid 80s

[burlingtonbandit]

Hoffman with a couple walks and 1 strikeout through 3 innings today. Lack of strikeouts are getting to be a bit concerning

[Atothe]

Pompey 1 for 1 so far

Thanks for posting. Dawson put up some great numbers a couple of years ago but I kind of lost sight of him. I had no idea about the physical issue. He could be one of those Kevin Pillars types who beats the odds and carves out a niche role.

[burlingtonbandit]

Hoffman gave up back to back HRs. First one on a high changeup. Not a great start so far.

He gets a pass from me for this seasons performance after coming off TJ. As long as he stays healthy I am happy with him.

I'm not worried one bit even if he shits the bed this year.

Yeah I think you want to keep him in Dunedin this season or move him to NH if he really pitches well. Certainly don't want him rushed to the bigs. I've listened to a few games so far but it seems Hoffman for how hard he throws doesn't get the swings and misses he should get. Of Hoffman's 3 SO today only 1 was swinging and there were only a few other swings and misses according to the broadcast.

I don't think he's leaving Dunedin at all, they can keep a close eye on him there all year

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

So in that DSL game I don't get the stat line on Nova what the hell happened in that game to get a pitching line like that?

 

Hows that even possible?

[nowayjose]

Jonathan Davis 3/4 tonight. He's having an unbelievable start to the milb season. If he keeps it up we have another Pompey on our hands.

[baubau]

Pompey 1 for 1 so far

 

...and he ends it there lol. 1 for 3.

[nowayjose]

...and he ends it there lol. 1 for 3.

 

It was a big hit though... The only hit.

[ElNik2013]

Pompey with HR # 2

[burlingtonbandit]

Reid Foley had 3BB 6 SO through 4 innings before finishing with 5BB and 7SO through 4.1 IP.

 

Astros prospect Brock Dykxhoorn who was facing Lansing threw 6 IP 2 BB and 10 SO. He's from Goderich, ON

[burlingtonbandit]

Urena also hit a HR in the Lansing game.

[HERPDERP]

good good Pompey.

 

1 of his homers was oppo, so that is very, very encouraging.

[Sammy225]

good good Pompey.

Meh we will trade him for a starting pitcher lol jk but maybe

[gruber92]

good good Pompey.

We need Pompey back up here big time.

[Frenchsoup]

We need Pompey back up here big time.

 

No we need a competent left fielder

[ElNik2013]

Pompey with hr # 4.

[nowayjose]

J.D Davis 2/3 with two doubles. # top 10 prospect

[Angrioter]

J.D Davis 2/3 with two doubles. # top 10 prospect

 

DJ is da man, JD isn't bid deal

[Angrioter]

Pompey wasn't a big deal until last year too.

 

JD is 23 years old

[nowayjose]

Anthony Alford 2-3. Alford is really bueno at beisbol.

 

JD Davis, the good one, 1-3, .415 AVG

 

Sarcastic back then, truth now.

[Angrioter]

Sarcastic back then, truth now.

 

A slip, a moment of madness

 

DJ is da man bro

[ElNik2013]

Norris: 3IP, 6H, 2BB, 4K.

[nowayjose]

He could be a potential candidate for the sample size video on Youtube, or we could have another strong outfield prospect on our hands. DJ and JD #2 can both be the man. More the merrier.
