That's too bad about Coffman - I was hoping his hot start might nudge the Rangers into making him a starter (rather than a reliever who pitches almost half the game).

Tony Torcato has been reduced to playing in the GBL (Chico).

There's a thread in the forums for indy league sightings, if you want to post there, too.

Jays sent Vinnie Chulk to Syracuse to join Jason Frasor. Francisco Rosario was recalled to make his ML debut, presumably in the bullpen, although he has been starting in AAA.

Carolina sent P Ross Wolf to Albuquerque, received P Manny Olivera from Jupiter.

We had a nice 1:22 rain delay last night, in the eighth inning. I didn't get home until 1 AM.

the weekly Meyer update. finally a real good start.
6 ip , 7K , 1 run on 4 hits ( 3 walks though )

Some Updates from the Braves system

Max Ramirez is killing the league, but has nowhere to go. He is old for his league ( 22 yr old in A ball ), but has Sammons, Salty, Pena and McCann ahead of him.

Yunel Escobar seems to have made an adjustment.
He is back upto 282/375/350(!!), 23K/ 16BB. thats godawful slugging though.
8 errors in the field too, for someone known for very smooth defence.
Salty struggling at 309/408. Startup finally gave up some runs. thought still ERA of 1 in 17 ip, 21/3 K/BB ratio
The sleeper I have been following is Ryan Basner. inconsistent between outings, but a stellar ratio of 30/6 in 22 ip, but also 27 hits. The nice stat, the pitching staff as a whole , 233/117 k/bb ratio, but 232 hits too!! in about 235 ip

Jake Stevens threw 3 scoreless innings in the relief the other day. atilano and morton are getting shelled. in fact, the whole MB staff has horrible stats. Not a single starter close to 9K/9 ip. Matt Harrison has shown good control. looks to be the next coming of...HoRam! 37 ip, 34 hits, 26K / 6BBs in High A
