    1. Mid 90’s fastball. Big arm but 6’1” 180? Feed this kid some cheesesteaks, maybe he hits high 90’s. Any scouting reports on his control?

  1. LHV lost 9-3. Abel’s performance is beyond concerning at this point.
    Miller with terrific back to back games.

    1. Thanks. I know I typed that and the losses in correctly. Sometimes this app just reverts to an earlier save. It saves automatically every 15 minutes or so. I was watching a replay of the Eagles/Foles super bowl, so I was easily distracted while typing. Long delays were my fault and probably caused that and maybe some other as yet undiscovered mistakes. Sorry.

  2. Bummer on Jordi Martinez, I thought he had a chance to get to the majors next year but losing the rest of this season will make it very hard.

  3. Keeping my fingers crossed with 22-year old catcher Jordan Dissin…..has enough pop and good defensive abilities…K rate is just too high, needs to make more contact.

    1. I’m hoping to go next Tuesday. How many pitchers are in their rotation? They play 6 x a week. Trying to figure out who might pitch next Tuesday.

    1. It’s a bit like watching a young Scott Rolen at the plate, but Miller has more pull power than Rolen (and, I suspect, is probably not as good of a fielder – few were).
