On the bats roster. I love the move, he had been hitting well and showing sustained success. Even though Henry/Dorn have been a little better and deserving of promotion, Stubbs has the higher ceiling, and of course a 1st round pick

Nice. Stubbs finished with a .315/.400/.402 - .802 OPS in just over 100 plate appearances in Double-A Chattanooga.
The thing I love about it the most, is now I can track his progress through gameday and don't have to bother trying to here the Chatt broadcast through the crappy speakers I have
Nice, let's hope he keeps it up.
Chattanooga: Lookouts’s Stubbs promoted to Triple-A

Chattanooga Lookouts center fielder Drew Stubbs was promoted Tuesday morning to Triple-A Louisville. In just 26 games with the Lookouts, Stubbs hit .315 with eight doubles and nine RBIs.
Stubbs entered this season ranked by Baseball America as the No. 5 prospect in the Cincinnati Reds organization and the No. 100 prospect overall.
Just last season, outfielder Jay Bruce played 16 games with the Lookouts before his Triple-A promotion. Bruce began this year as Baseball America’s No. 1 overall prospect and received his big-league call-up earlier this summer.
Lookouts manager Mike Goff said Tuesday he believes the Stubbs promotion is permanent and not a temporary move because of injury.

I am glad to watch him hit. I haven't watched a Louisville game in weeks, but tonight I will probably sit down and take it in (if its on, haven't checked yet).Originally Posted by redhawk61
This may crash the server.
Oh, its also worth noting Chris Heisey is no longer on the Sarasota roster, so he is likely the replacement in AA.
Louisville is off tonight.
I'd have kept him in Chatt.
but if the big leaguers weren't so messed up right now, I'd bring him up to Cincy.
Hmmm, just a passing thought..... last year's 1st round prospect name goes thru Chattanooga like a knife thru hot butter. And this year's isn't much slower. We have to re-negotiate with Lookouts any day now.
Frank Burke (Lookouts owner) can't appreciate that

FWIW, Daryl Thompson is back on the Louisville roster too.
Walt is shinin' him up.
Perhaps with the departure of Dunn and Junior, Stubbs has now been put on the fast track.
But, I could be stating the obvious.
Well then tomorrow night it is!
