7/29 FRIDAY MINORS THREAD .... SIMS' BEST OUTING EVER?

[Enscheff]

You do know that most rookie/young pitchers struggle for a couple of years, right?

Except that hasn't been the case lately. The truly good young pitchers of the last 3-5 years have came up and dominated right away. I think that is why folks are so quick to dismiss guys that struggle early.

For what it's worth, I have a lot of faith that Wisler will figure it out and be the MOR he was touted to be. His stuff is a notch above guys like Gant and Whalen and Jenkins.

We expect a full report. We need minter updates. How did his tongue look. How was mr Swanson. You have to love little troll willians. Peterson swing is so easy isn't it.

I couldn't get a good take on Minters tongue because I was sitting on the 3rd base side. But I can say that his 95 to 97 fastball looked really good. He has the potential to be more than just a loogy.

Mr Swanson made a highlight reel catch in LF. He has good range.

I think I have a man crush on Peterson. Lol. He is a big athletic guy. Trustmark park in Pearl is not a hitter friendly park. My guess is his power numbers compare well to guys like McCann, Freeman, Heyeard when they played here. I maybe wrong and I'm to lazy to look it up tonight.

Looking at the talent on the team now verses a couple of years ago it's night and day. I can't believe i thought Peraza, Terdo, LaStella, Cuningham, Pastor, etc. were real prospects. Camargo and Lien are better than any of those guys.

Willins is my favorite. I like that he doesn't have to squat to play catcher. If basebal doesn't work out for him in sure he can get a part in the Spanish remake of The Hobbitt.
