Tyson Gillies puts up 2 more hits. I’d say something positive about him, but I don’t want to jinx him. And at this point, with the way his luck seems to run, I believe any one of us could. So no talking nice about Tyson Gillies. Continue reading Box Score Recap 7-16-2012

Domonic Brown activated
Just a quick note that OF Domonic Brown has been activated and is expected in the Lehigh Valley lineup this evening after missing a month with a knee injury. Brown is looking to turn around another injury filled season with a strong final 7 weeks of the minor league season. I suspect with three strong weeks and the strong possibility of outfielders being traded from the Phils, we may see Brown in Philly sooner rather than later.
General Discussion – Week of 7-16-2012
Here’s your non-prospect related spot for the week. I bet you can’t come up with a whole mess of really implausible trade scenarios. Prove me wrong 😉

VSL PHILLIES DOUGLAS PARADA THROWS NO HITTER!!! Ok, it’s in the VSL and he’s 19 years old already, facing at least 5 guys who are at least 2 years younger than him, and facing a team with a .241 winning percentage, but still. Way to go.
Around the System–Corner Infield
Quite a bit to talk about at the corner infield spots with the addition of the short season teams into the mix.
Lehigh Valley
Tug Hulett, 29, Acquired in 2012 as a free agent, .267/.337/.358 in 176 AB’s between Reading and LV; 3 HR 25 RBI; 2SB; .319 avg. with LV; .313 vs. LH, .320 vs. RH, .313 with RISP; 10%bb/20%k rates. Hitting .326 since June 1st. 46 games at 3B with 8 errors (.927) 2.22 R/F. ; Hulett has played well for the ‘Pigs but expect his playing time to become much more limited with Hector Luna back from the big club.

Adam Morgan goes over 100k for the season. Leads his league. Leads all Phils minor leaguers. FYI – Clearwater guys are 1-2-3-5 in Ks in the FSL, with Biddle, Wright, Colvin after Morgan. Continue reading Box Score Recap 7-13-2012
Box Score Recap 7-12-2012
Cameron Rupp walk-off single in the 12th in CLR. Lakewood pitchers shut out Hickory. Jonathan Musser kind of imploded in his 2 innings. Continue reading Box Score Recap 7-12-2012

Big walk-off win for the Eastern League Eastern Division last night. That team’s really got a chance to go somewhere. Continue reading Box Score Recap 7-11-2012
Hot or Not
So Dylan Cozens has opened some eyes early on….with Larry Greene looking good as well. Other thoughts:
–Cameron Rupp has been much more consistent as of late and if he can hit .255-.265 with power and defense, the Phils will have something.
–Chris Serritella should be in Lakewood soon.
–Kelly Dugan has been hot ever since returning from his ankle injury and his average is now approaching .280 with some pop.
–The transition to new levels for 3B Harold Martinez and Cody Asche continues to be a slow one, but its still early.
–Adam Morgan is putting up numbers worthy of a move up to Reading, while Brody Colvin has pulled himself together over the last several starts.
–In the department of prospects named “Tyler”, both Cloyd and Knigge continue their dominance.
Stats are from 7/4/12 thru 7/10/12.
Hot Hitters: Cameron Rupp (.474, HR 7RBI); Dylan Cozens, (.474, 5R 2SB) William Carmona (.407, 5R HR 6RBI); Kelly Dugan (.400); Larry Greene (.400); Chris Serritella (.385, 8R 3HR 8RBI); Yan Olmo (.375); Leandro castro (.375); Darin Ruf (.364, 4R, HR); Albert Cartwright (.364); Jairo Cardozo (.364); Honorable Mention: Susdorf, Mora, Valenzuela, Frandsen, Murphy, M. Martinez, Villalobos, Franco, Eldemire Continue reading Hot or Not
