I'm happy to see Burrows promoted. He was outclassing hitters in Rome last year. Really nice guy too, the kind that asks kids if he can sign anything for them after the games.

[50PoundHead]

Is Harrington hurt or just falling? That pick was a head-scratcher for me, especially given that they signed him to an above-slot deal.

He was probably the least impressive (major?) Braves pitching prospect last year as far as numbers went, I thought.

[msstate7]

Anderson thru 1.2 has 5 k

Cumberland hit 3rd hr

[ball4life32]

Anderson finishes 3.2 ip, 2h, 3r, 7so, 3bb

He gave up a run on a wild pitch was taken out and the reliever gave up 2 hits resulting in 2 runs. How accurate are the pitch tracks on the milb app? It seems Anderson was getting screwed if they're accurate. Should have finished with 0 runs, 8 striketouts and only 1 walk. Literally 7 balls in a row that looked like they should have been strikes. I remember Kiley talking about a big reason that Anderson's walk rate was high last year was due to the inconsistencies of the A ball umps.

James Franco's cousin Carlos with 2 RBIs for the Stripers tonight.

His power is pretty surprising - such that it is. The bomb he hit last night landed on the patio of Tobacco Road (a bar in LF).

[Tapate50]

Cumberland’s bat stayed hot in the offseason. Not sure where he plays but he’s destroying the ball. AA visit this season would be impressive

My hope is that he can be a third catcher, play at first and left.

[Tapate50]

Encouraging line from Anderson really.

[bravesfanforlife88]

Lockhart is playing again...?

Those photos must be legit for him to still be around

[Super]

Encouraging line from Anderson really.

He absolutely cruised thru the first 3 innings. Like 3IP, 1H, 0BB, 6K i think. Kinda fell apart after, but I'm not sure why.

ball4life32 reported that the ump was out of control based on the gameday information. Anderson has top notch stuff and is progressing quite nicely.

Saving them for the majors.

Nah I don't need to watch abs. Stat lines tell me everything.

no, he reads stats about them to tell him the results

Negative - The point still remains despite how demonstrative some want to be. Good hitters will on average have higher BABIPs.

SSS!

Good hitters on average have good hitting profiles. That said as I showed in the other thread roughly half of the hitters that you defined as good over the last 5 years had what I would consider an average or below BABIP. The other half had an above average or higher BABIP. Which seems pretty straightforward since we are only dealing with good hitters.

[Enscheff]

that got debunked fairly quickly

It was debunked 5 years ago, he just didn't bother to learn about it.

tehteh used to just post rainbows and candy cane posts while waiving his pompoms. Now he has started doing the most annoying thing in the world: argue from positions of extreme ignorance as if his opinions carry equal weight to well known facts.
