Everytime I open my mouth about someone, they struggle.

Final line: 5.2ip, 4 hits, 0 runs, 2 walks, 7 strikeouts
Three straight very good outings by Cueto - 17.2 consecutive scoreless innings for him.
Some people here thought he was being pushed or was over-promoted and it now looks like Almaraz has done the right thing with this kid. IMO he's moving into Bailey-Bruce territory.
well for whatever reason, in Sarasota his command seems to be lacking a bit. His walk rate has doubled, as has his HR rate. Still a guy I like, he needed quite a bit of time to adjust things, and hopefully this is his stpe forward we are seeing in the FSL.
Dayton now leads 7-5. They scored 6 in the 4th inning.
Jay Bruce hit his 16th HR of the year.
He needed that. He has been struggling lately. A long season will do that to ya.
Dayton won 8-7. Craig Tatum went 3-4 with an RBI
Sarasota won 9-1. Cody Strait went 4-5 with a double, RBI and walk. Paul Janish went 2-5 with an RBI and a walk. Jay Garthwaite went 3-3 with a HR and 3 RBI.
Does anybody know how Elizardo has done since being sent down?
Ravin struggled in the first inning of his debut PL start, walking three, but recovered nicely to finish the next two innings. Final line was 3IP, 2 H, 2 ER, 4 BB, 4 K. Billings leads Ogden 4-2 in their quest to win eight in a row.
Oh, and SS Chris Valaika (3rd, 2006) has just tied the longest minor-league hit streak for 2006- 27 games.
