Minor League Games - 2024

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I forgot all about Noel, how does he look? Any chance he gets called up this year?
Still crushes the ball, still has decent RBIs, and still can't take a walk. I think they would prioritize Valera (and probably Rodriguez) over Noel unless Jhonkensy suddenly learns the strike zone. Noel will be out of options next year, so it will be interesting to see what happens.

It's too bad he hasn't been able to take that next step as his option(s) run out... He is still only 22 so I still like his chances to make it to the show someday, seems like that may happen somewhere else though.

I am looking forward to purchasing his MLB jersey whenever and wherever that happens. Just enjoyed watching him play (and smile) at Lake County. Always hoping to see him unleash that unbelievable power he has.

Hopefully the jersey quality will be better by then.
 
Curry was listed as the starter for today's Columbus Clipper game but lefty reliever Randy Labaut is starting now... Not sure why and perhaps Curry comes in next.
 
What was the reason for Cedrola pitching yesterday?

I was wondering why myself... I didn't get to hear cause someone talked in my walkie talkie right when they said at work...
 
Juan Brito with one of the more boneheaded baserunning blunders I have seen this year. With a runner on second he got picked off of first by the catcher... Just a complete lack of focus...

Vintage Jhonkensy today - goes 0-4, 3Ks, and then hits a 3R HR with 2 out in the 10th to win the game.

Another crazy note from the game - Zapata has ERA of 8+ at Lake County, gets promoted to Columbus and throws 3 scoreless innings to get the win

Maybe he was working on something at A ball?

And he swung at a ball to get it.. He has been pretty dang hot lately though.
 
Lake County sure looks like a lot better team than they did (on paper) before the start of the season. Several guys have had very nice performances so far. Here are a few from Game 1 today.

Nate Furman - had a 2 homer game. He hit zero last year, and one earlier this year. If he actually has power he can tap into? Never thought it possible
C.J Kayfus - nothing major here except he has now homered in 3 straight games
Guy Lipscomb - 2 doubles and is playing very well. His days as a part-timer appear to be over.
Trenton Denholm - CG shutout. Sure it was 7 innings 2H 0R/0ER 1BB 9K on 85 pitches, 64 strikes. Either Denholm or Peterson to Akron makes way too much sense.
