Heard a rumour Groshans was moved up to Bluefield.

 

Any truth to this?

Look at that someone else is agreeing with me.

Alford should not be anyway near the blue jays top 40 prospects.

He should have to earn is way back into the top 40.

I know it's only Rk league and he's 21, but what Cal Stevenson is doing is still impressive.

 

In 49 games: .383/.520/.531 52 walks and only 19 strikeouts

 

Also 19 year old C Alejandro Kirk in 51 games in the APPY league: .333/.423/.522 with 8HR and a 44% caught stealing!

Vlad struggling lately... bust!!!

I think the off days are hurting his groove lol. Seems like he has had more off days in AAA then he did all year

If anyone wants to early scout next years draft the PG All American classic from the other night is up

Not to be a negative nancy here, but maybe his "groove" and the "off days" both have the same cause... It may be his knees are still hurting a bit.

 

I admit I was a bit of a maniac about the injury issue. However I stand by that point, the risk with Guerrero is mostly injury and health. If he's a dissapointment it will be because of injuries. He's a supremely talented hitter, and if healthy he should be a star.

 

I don't see him playing 155 games a year AND being a disspointment. His road to failure is injury related. a) he's not on the field enough and when on the field the injuries effect his performance. Kind of like what happened to Nick Johnson. Nick Johnson was the last milb hitter to have the kind of video game numbers at 19/20 that Vlad does.

 

Hopefully he's fully healthy and goes into Pujols mode for the next 10 years.

Kloffenstein debuted today in GCL 1IP 1BB 2K 12 Pitches

Kloffenstein debuted today in GCL 1IP 1BB 2K 12 Pitches

 

12 pitches? two 3 pitch K's + a 4 pitch walk would only leave 2 pitches to get the last out (unless he picked off the guy he walked). That's a pretty bizarre inning

Double play?

The pitch counts aren't accurate for the lowest levels of the minor leagues. Much like spring training on MLB gameday, it usually counts a strikeout as 3 pitches and a walk as 4.

 

I think, anyway. Could be wrong.

That's going to be tough when he struck out 2...

If that's the case - just don't post pitch counts please...Christ - we have to keep and record pitch counts on 10 year olds these days. Surely we have proper pitch counts in the GCL.

I don't see the pitch count on the boxscore anyway so not sure where he got it from.

Who's a decent comparison for Kloffenstein?

[tercet]

Who's a decent comparison for Kloffenstein?

 

Verlander, Scherzer, Kershaw bc they are all 6'5'' and have a career K/9 < Kloffenstein. #jaysfanlogic

[Krylian]

LoL. Oops.

 

Was there a wild pitch in there where he struck out on a wild pitch and still made it to first?

Frankenstein if he's ugly.

Inject this right into my veins.

[glory]

Said it before, Samad is my sleeper prospect. He is going to be top 10 in the Jays system by next year. Young is having a better season than I thought as well and just turned 21.

[Orgfiller]

 

Inject this right into my veins.

 

Hahahaha Mackenzie Gore is awful hahahaha

In Gore's defense if you add their Power ratings together he just faced 70 or 80 power
