Welcome to the first edition of the midseason prospect grades. I outlined a few days ago the system I have developed to try and evaluate our prospects, so we should have a pretty good idea of how to read and interpret the data. I’ll only do 1 grade today and give more detailed explanations of how to read and interpret, and then after today, I’ll try and do 5-6 grades per day. I’m starting at the bottom of the list in terms of where prospects ranked in my end of 2006 list, found here. I’ll also omit guys who have not made their 2007 debut, for obvious reasons. At the end of the grades section, I’ll post their 2006 scores, but since you won’t have anything to compare it to in 2007, it won’t be that much of a help. Ok, enough blathering, on with the grades.

Ottawa Lynx Report Week Ten
The Lynx began week ten of the 2007 season by doing something which had eluded them for three games-they defeated the Durham Bulls. The first three games of this series had resulted in losses to the Bulls as Ottawa couldn’t get much going, couldn’t get or prevent the big play, (see Lynx report week nine). The final game of this home stand saw the Lynx finally put one in the win column, this time in a rain shortened six innings, 3-2. Jason Jaramillo continued to slowly drag himself out of his long hitting slump, driving in two runs in the fifth inning with a triple and giving Ottawa the lead for good. Charles Weatherby III, (1-0), and just transferred from Single A, allowed four hits and two runs in five innings in his Triple A debut. Joe Ennis , although allowing a hit and a walk, picked up his first save of the season in support of Weatherby, shutting out Durham in the sixth. Ottawa finished up the home stand 2-5, their home record dropping to 15-14.
