Daniel Brito is killing it in A ball. Arquimedes Gamboa also looks good. Meanwhile, Jonathan Arauz is serving a 50 game suspension

watched the Reading game yesterday morning, Andrew Pullin has a heck of a swing, don't think he'll be in AA too long. He hit 2 doubles and as of yesterday he was leading the league in doubles in the very early part of the season. Kingery hit a 3 run HR. Eshelman got knocked around a bit but always got out of the jams.

I'm trying to think of how many non-Asian pitchers went with the submarine style off the top of my head. Brad Ziegler is the only other one coming to me.

Chad Bradford! Also later Quisenberry, Kent Tekulve, and Sam Nahem -- but only against righties.

He can touch 97, but usually sits low 90s.

Hoskins hit 2 HR's off of Kyle Kendrick today. :laugh:

I wonder if Hernandez will be the All-Star representative for the Phillies this season.

EDIT:

Keeping it up with a leadoff homer.

It's just that every team hit the down part of the cycle at the same time.
Saw this in the late 70s as well.
But each team has hope.

Phillies rebuilt the farm system, have some top talent in Lehigh and Reading.
Flyers are on schedule on the Hextall 5 year plan
Sixers are in the midst of the "Process"
Eagles have the red headed savior

Just because you say you are in the middle of a rebuild and call players prospects does not guarantee success.

-The Phillies prospects are not "cant misses"....not even close.
-Flyers will have same forward corps as the last 6 years who have won one playoff series in 6 years.
-Do you really think Embiid will ever be healthy for a full season? And Simmonds attitude will be an interesting thing to follow in Philly. The kid is a complete a-hole. Lets hope his play is so great that it goes unnoticed.
-Carson Wentz is the real ginger Jesus. Howie needs to draft well to round out the team and build the defense.

The media doesn't like him because he posted on Twitter or Instagram that he was good to go after the latest scan. They also don't like how he answers questions.

So expect torches to be lit shortly.

:shakehead:shakehead:shakehead is it similar to how the media threw a fit when the Flyers announced the starting goalie via instagram?
