    from phuturephillies.com


    The problem is, at higher levels, batters are less likely to swing at breaking balls out of the zone. Most guys with fringe stuff are pinpoint control guys, like Kevin Slowey and Jeremy Sowers, and scouts even question their success at higher levels. For a guy with an 86-89 MPH fastball, even for a lefty, I think he’s going to need to really refine his control at the higher levels, or he’s going to hit a wall quickly.

    All I know is he is a lot bigger and his fastball is a couple mph better.

    The Chattanooga announcer was very impressed by the fact Maloney threw so many stikes. He talked about his curve and slider a lot , fastball he never gave a gun reading on so no idea how hard he was throwing.

    Sowers's k/9 fell apart in AAA. If he can keep his k/9 above 8.00 in AAA that would be a good sign.

    Guy Chattanooga just brought in to pitch is Dushen Ruzic - 6'8 277 from Australia. He's 25 , even bigger than Harang

    Ruzic pitched last night too for the Lookouts. He pitched pretty well in Sarasota before his promotion.

    Matt Maloney suffers a 1-0 loss in debut , but was very impressive. May have got a decent prospect for Lohse.

    Cantu can't walk and he can't field.

    He's probably behind Votto, Bruce, Dickerson, and Herr in position players in line for a callup.
    I would have liked it if Herr got promoted over Bellhorn.

    On first read, I thought Maloney made one of the strangest debuts ever.
