Hope Allen settles down. Gave up two homers and three runs in the first.

But he got out of the 1st this time...
That is an improvement over his last start...

Serious Question: How many other people are tired of seeing either Aaron Bracho or Quentin Holmes in the lineup for Lake County??

I really believe that the ship has sailed off without them and any game reps (time in field/ at-bats) is better spent on other prospects..
@Tondo @BimboColesHair @CATS44 @CDAV45 @sportscoach @Criznit @Martyinnewyork ... Somebody help me to understand this and overcome this frustration point...

If I listed all the things that I don’t understand about the way things are done, you’d be reading for a week…

I agree on Holmes....a never has been as a pro.

But Bracho is different. He was a highly touted signing and was once a top ten org prospect on various sites. But he broke his arm and missed 2018, missed extended time in 2019 due to an oblique, missed all of 2020 and part of last season.

It seems as if he's been around forever, but he's only played 150 games over the last five years. Until he absolutely blocks somebody with higher upside, or of he doesn't project after finally getting a full season, he's worth a longer look.

Part of Bracho's issue has been staying healthy, but another part has been staying in good physical shape.
As for the 2020 lost season IIRC he was at the alt site in Lake County...

Honestly, I don't know. I asked Bimbo about Bracho awhile back, but I don't think he got around to answering me. He's certainly fallen hard and fast.

Akron loses 3-2 tonight, but Bibee with another fantastic outing. 5IP, 0ER, 1BB and 6SO. Can you imagine Columbus' rotation next year? It has me giggling. We're probably looking at Espino, Williams, Bibee, Cantillo, Morris, Hankins, Allen, Curry, Burns, Battenfield, Pilkington and Gaddis all logging some innings for the Clippers. Good Lord!
