Thursday April 17th Minor League Thread

[DTCromer]

Louisville: 7:05 at Slugger Field
Norfolk: Craig Anderson 0-0, 6.30
Louisville: Adam Pettyjohn 1-0, 5.11

Chattanooga @ Huntsville: 8:05 Start
Can't FInd the probable starter yet. This was Belisle's turn in the rotation. James Avery is the next pitcher in the rotation, but I have no clue who's starting.

Sarasota Reds: NO GAME

Dayton Dragons: NO GAME

[OnBaseMachine]

James Avery is starting tonight.

I thought Sarasota was off today?

[DTCromer]

You're right. They have an off day. They had the pitching matchups on the front page and assumed it was today.

OOPS

[AccordinglyReds]

Anyone know who will fill in Bailey's place in the rotation tomorrow night due to the rainout earlier this week? TIA...

Probably won't know until tonight during the broadcast. Maybe you could email the Bats and find out. That would be my best advice.

Eh, I think I will be able to wait. I've already got tickets, so it doesn't have any bearing. Thanks.

Bats lineup, nothing really to draw conclusions from. Bruce gets the night off for the jam shoulder (or is it for other reasons). :D

Green 2B
Anderson LF
Hairston RF
Cabrera DH
Ross C
Barker 1B
Rosales 3B
Dickerson CF
Janish SS

[OnBaseMachine]

With Dayton and Sarasota off, and Bruce not playing, there's not a whole lot to report tonight.

man, i thought a baseball team had 9 players on the field at once, not just 1...i must be watching the wrong sport

[OnBaseMachine]

I really don't care how 30 year old journeymen are doing. Feel free to post updates though.

[reds44]

Bray: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K

[Degenerate39]

Bray: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K

Call the man up already Wayne he's better than Coffey.

Green 2B - 30
Anderson LF - 26
Hairston RF - 31
Cabrera DH - 35
Ross C - 31
Barker 1B - 32
Rosales 3B - 24
Dickerson CF - 26
Janish SS - 25

just cause you don't have one of the two 21 year old's that you wanna watch playing you won't pay attention ?? that's borderline psycho isn't it ?? :D

[11larkin11]

Those bottom 3 are about the only ones that exceite me from a prospect point of view. Dickerson and Janish not very much because they are strictly defensive players, while Rosales is quite intriguing.

[OnBaseMachine]

Louisville lost 7-6 in 11 innings.

Rosales finished 2-for-5

Bray: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K

Get Bray to Cincy tomorrow please. Check out his numbers in Louisville so far:

5.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 10 K

[OnBaseMachine]

James Avery: 6 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 3 BB, 4 K

Chattanooga trails 3-1.

[AccordinglyReds]

Majewski: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 1 ER
Sauerbeck: 1.1 IP, 3 H, 2 ER

Ross: 0-4
Rosales: 2-5

[OesterPoster]

Has Bray pitched on back-to-back days for Louisville yet? I thought that was one point of contention when they decided to send him to AAA, having come off that minor injury in spring training.

[reds44]

Keep Ross in the minors until he starts hitting.

[AccordinglyReds]

Keep Ross in the minors until he starts hitting.

Agreed.

Bako is doing a better job hitting, and most importantly handling the games with the pitchers. It'd be a waste to bring Ross back up without him hitting.

[roborobj]

Bolivar hit a 3 run homer top of 9

Lookouts ahead 6-4

[roborobj]

oops!! lookouts 6, stars 3

[OnBaseMachine]

Welcome to the board kateebird.

Roenicke come on and allowed a hit and walk in the 8th but got of it without allowing a run.

6-3 in the 9th.

[roborobj]

Guess I shouldn't have litened to the announcer. Final score for the Lookouts was 6-6.

[roborobj]

and that was a typo. final score was 6-4

[OnBaseMachine]

Roenicke threw a scoreless ninth and recorded the win.

1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K for Roenicke.

[crazyredfan40]

Roenicke threw a scoreless ninth and recorded the win.

1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K for Roenicke.

Hopefully we see a couple of guys cut loose in Louisville as I really think he should be up there, but maybe they want both he and Mcbeth in the closer role for teams...
