Darin Ruf goes deep for the first time in 2013, Cam Perkins so far hitting like a 2nd year college guy at A+ should hit if we’re to believe he can make it to the show, (though a couple walks would be nice), and a fine outing from Kevin Brady – 4H, 3BB, and 8K over 6IP.

Box Score Recap – 4/16/2013
Yes, I looked at all of Anthony Hewitt’s stats today. .480 BABIP. Call me in 6 weeks.
On a brighter note, Clearwater batters taking care of business, and Jesse Biddle was good, (though 4BB is not good), Castro, Joseph and Rupp went deep, and JC Ramirez is being very unJC.

Josh Fields with 4 hits including a double and 2 HR. That’s one base better than a cycle. It should have a name. Maybe the “Doublehomercycle”. Nah, never fit on a marquee. Wait, I’ve got it. How about “The Big Wheel”? That’s it. Josh Fields hit for The Big Wheel Monday night.
Also OF/1B Brock Stassi struck out 2 in a mop-up inning for Clearwater. And so begins the “Brock Stassi Pitching Experiment”, close relative of the “Tim Kennelly Pitching Experiment”, and arch-nemesis of the “Joe Savery Hitting Experiment”.

Nick Hernandez rocketing up towards the top 30, with a couple really nice starts so far this year. He’s like Justin Bieber except I will gladly tolerate his success.
I added the graphic file now, also. I thought it was there earlier, but I guess not.

Adam Morgan good. Watching that game, he really does have a nice, fluid delivery. Fun to watch and really, quite polished already. Easy to see why the club tought he was ready for AAA. The rest of Saturday’s starters…umm…well…yeah…see…umm…hmmm… Continue reading Box Score Recap – 4/13/2013

Nice line from Seth Rosin. San Francisco found something unappealing about him starting in their system. Not sure if it was the nice K rate, the reasonable BB rate, or the fact that he’s built like a small-to-medium-sized horse, but we’ll see if he can stick. Here’s a link to Anthony Burkhart’s game story, with some background on Seth Rosin from the Pottsville Republican-Herald. Which one’s Pottsville? Yuengling, or not Yuengling?

Seems like Jesse Biddle did not have his best stuff last night. Zero Ks in 6 IP. Clearwater hitters pounded out 18 hits in an 11 innings win against Daytona, including Maikel Franco’s first bomb of the young season. And there was a bit of a…well…how do you put this??? Kerfuffle??? Yeah, a bit of a kerfuffle in that game. Sounds like fun.

Nick Hernandez is the story of the night – all the way back from shoulder issues that have kept him off the mound for all of the last two years. It’s been so long I had to look at his bio to remember that he’s a big lefty, (listed 6’4″, 216), and that he was having a really nice year (albeit as a 21-soon-to-be-22 yr old) in the SAL in 2010, with Ks at 20.8% and BBs at 6.2%.

One of my 2013 sleepers, Edgar Duran, had quite a night – particularly if you stop reading the box after his 2 steals and before his error. Big time offense and 6 scoreless from the bullpen helped the Iron Pigs fight back against Pawtucket. An OK start from Mecias, who struck out 6 in 4IP. And any game where Brody Colvin faces 23 batters and only walks 2 is probably a positive at this point. Continue reading Box Score Recap – 4/8/2013
