Bob Brookover brings the words. Its nice to hear Aumont feels good about himself again. I think sometimes the human element does get lost in the mix when focusing on arm strength, walk rate, pitchability and the like, but its still vitally important. While Aumont may have had more value in the rotation, if he’s comfortable in the pen, and he rebounds to his 92-96 level fastball with his sharp curveball, there will still be plenty of value there to extract. So far so good.
Box Score Recap, 17 April 2011
Everybody wins (again)…but this time it’s only 2-0.
Reading Phils Update 4/17
The R-Phils are off to a solid 6-3 start after a week and a half of playing. They stand second in the Eastern Division, a game behind New Britain, and a game in front of New Hampshire. They are 5-2 on the road, including a sweep of previously front-running New Hampshire, and 1-1 at home. The offense has been strong, averaging 5.8 runs/game, while the pitching has held up its end as well, allowing only 3.3 runs. The offense has been a bit feast-or-famine, or they’d be a game or two better. They’ve been shut out twice, and scored 13 runs twice.

Hey everyone. The second game just started in Lakewood, there’s no way I’ll be around to post that, so we’ll have to do without. If someone wants to add it tomorrow, that would be cool, if not, we’ll, we’ll gettem next time. Some solid performances tonight, including the continued mashing from Joe Savery, Leandro Castro continuing his hot start, and Jon Pettibone turning in another great effort. Basically the Clearwater team is awesome. Box scores are below the fold.

Hi folks. The graphic below the fold is missing the AAA box score, I have to go and won’t have time to upload it. If gregg or Chuck or anyone else with access wants to add it, go for it, I’ve just been using screencaps + mspaint to make the files. Thanks for understanding.
