Lawlor had been strong. What's the background on him?

Drafted out of UGA, was in Danville in 2015 and had a good year as a starter (2.30 ERA). Struggled last year in Carolina (~4.6 ERA with a lot of walks) and was changed to reliever for the remainder of the year. Low 90s fastball. -paraphrased from http://theroadtoatlanta.com/rome-braves/

May be a starter now, not sure. Prolly org filler/low leverage reliever.
 
I love how these games are setup. I can start with Pike and see how he does for a bit before jumping over to the Wilson game.. listen to it for a bit.. maybe watch. Then finish with Weigel this evening.. all while having the big club on in the background.
 
Lookouts' longest homestand of the year start tonight. Will be tied up every day this week. Will update and link when I get home.
 
Scivicque 1-1, 2b

He's now hitting .417. I remember watching him at lsu, but don't really remember his catching ability. Is he a real prospect for us?
 
Weigel was pitching great for Mississippi, finally gives up a run on a ground out for second out in 6th and now taken out in a 1-1 game. Very good game again for him, 0 BB and 7 K's.

so ticked I didn't get to watch his game. I really wanted to see this kid. Just couldn't nail down the time...
 
Jared James had about as poor of a start as possible this year, but he's a homer short of the cycle tonight and up to hitting .241. Pretty intriguing guy we took I think in round 32 last year.
 
Pike with an excellent start tonight... 6 ip, 1 BB, 4 SO, 66 pitches (41 strikes)

Also, McCreery for Rome has been very good in the bullpen... he's the guy we got for Chacin I think... he had always been terrible with walks but had unreal strikeout numbers... would love to see him keep harnessing that.

Wilson with a solid start again too, although it did take him 82 pitches to get through 4.2... still only gave up 2 BB and 1 hit/1 run
