One of our newest went yard. They grow up so fast *shed a tiny tear*.
Oh, and Colin Kleven got the win in the SAL all-star game. No Lakewood hitters made the boxscore. And I’m pretty sure none made the roster. Which seems about right. Continue reading Box Score Recap 6-19-2012
A look back at the last 7 days from 6/13–6.19. Hitters require 11AB’s to be eligible.
Some thoughts: Cody Asche just keeps doing his thing…I cant imagine he will be with CLearwater much longer.
–Anthony Hewitt was perhaps the most productive offensive player in the system during the last time period.
–Cody Overbeck has really leveled off and some thought should certainly be given to getting Darin Ruf some AAA playing time before the end of the year.
–Brody Colvin is back on the not hot list while Jon Pettibone continues with his very solid season.
–When will Justin Friend get a real chance….?
Hot Hitters: Cody Asche (.588, 5R); Chris Duffy (.480); Anthony Hewitt (.438, 3HR 9 RBI); Andreas Blanco (.400, 6R); Zach Collier (.400); Darin Ruf (.357, 4R 2HR 5 RBI); Kevin Frandsen (.360, 8 RBI); Leandro Castro (.350)Sebastian Valle (.333); Brendan Tripp (.333); Tug Hulett (.333) Continue reading Hot or Not

Lots of fun names to see for the first time at Williamsport and in the GCL. I’d say Yan Olmo is the star if the day for that bunch. Other than that, I’ll only point out that Zach Collier is still on fire. Good for him.
Looking behind the plate, Sebastian Valle has taken it up a notch since the last report and if he can continue on this pace, could be major league ready in 2014. AT 21, no reason to rush him, although with Chooch sometimes injury prone……

Tuffy Gosewisch, 28, Phils 11th round pick in 2005, .223/.277/.355 in 121 AB’s; 3HR 12 RBI; 5%bb/14% k rates; .216 vs. LH, .226 vs. RH, .250 with RISP; .214 since May 1. 35 games caught; 7/31 CS (23%); 2 errors (.993); 3 passed balls. Calling a good game but very mediocre production.
John Suomi, 31, Re-Signed as a free agent on 2012; .361/.381/.607 in 61 AB’s; 3HR 9 RBI; 1SB; 3%bb/21% k rates. 7 games caught; 0/5 CS ; 1 error (.978); 0 passed balls; Has also played 5 games at 1B with 2 errors. Suomi was scalding the ball before missing the last two weeks with a hip injury. Not good defensively. Continue reading Around the System–Catcher
