Midwest League
Jay Bruce, Dayton
.483 (14-29), 4 R, 7 2B, 0 3B, 0 HR, 8 RBI, 3 BB, 5 SO, 1 SB, .724 SLG
Half of Bruce's 14 hits this week went for two bases, and the 19-year-old Texan now leads the Midwest League with 23 doubles on the season. The Dragons won just two games this week -- both against Lansing -- and Bruce played a key role in each. The right fielder went 3-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored on Wednesday and 3-for-5 with two RBIs and a run scored on Friday.

Attended a few of those games and Bruce looked like the "real deal" Hopefully he keeps it up over the long haul!

i know people will think im crazy for this ;), but i hope he doesnt get to big. i think thats some of dunn's downfall and was kearns(notice how hes done since he was sent down and told to get in shape. and many other players these days. i think they get to big
