Estevez has been raking since he was sent down from Danville to the GCL. Wasn't going to get ABs in Danville with the promotions of Acuna and Ellison, so it's nice to see him hit some. He's still only 19.

Someone please tell me that Morales is good at catching.

Dustin Peterson 1-1, rbi

He's coming on

[msstate7]

Ruiz 1-1

Gotta admit I'm thrilled to see Ruiz and d. Peterson starting to hit the ball.

[IslandBrave]

Ruiz now 3-3.

[UNCBlue012]

Ruiz 3-3 with a walk today. He is killing it.

[50PoundHead]

Ruiz and Peterson have been pushed along aggressively. Ruiz has hit well to this point, but AA is a new plateau. Peterson didn't hit all that well in his first two seasons and is doing better except for the fact that he's not hitting for extra bases. They are both young for classification (which I don't particularly subscribe to as a theory of much of anything). It would have been interesting to see how Peterson would have done had he not been shaken up in the crash. I feel the same about Davidson, whose been alright but not stellar in Rome. I think each of these guys has a chance.

[Enscheff]

How long has it been since Allard has pitched?
