Posted July 31, 200321 yr *Expect Toby Borland back any day... ****Albuquerque**** *Won their 8th game in row *G Williams had 2 more hits and is EN FUEGO...could be either a valuable Sept callup or a waiver wire trade for a mid-level prospect *C Matt Treanor, continues to play well with 2 more hits, raising his OPS to .833 ...which is awesome for a catcher...ed, do you have any reports on his defense? Im feeling that the progress of Willingham and Treanor made the FO feel Castro was more expendable. *Vlad, Levrault, and Neal all pitched well last night going a combined (4.1IP, 5H, 0ER, 1BB, 3K) Almost forgot about Levrault who lowered his ERA to 0.59 -Any one of these guys could step in come and play well at this point I believe with Neal pitching very well...has lowered his ERA to 3.60 which is good in the hitters friendly Pacific League *Abe Nunez blasted his 5th homer. ***Carolina*** Someone else already updated **Jupiter** *Anyone that was worried about Lincoln Holdzkom's rough first outing let your fears subside....he went (2IP, 0H, 0BB, 0ER, 3K) *Jim Kavourias had a base hit and 2BB and is stuck on 19HR's **Greensboro** *Jose Aponte went 4-4 with a double *Hermida went hitless and K'd 2x *Gulf Coast Marlins* *James Russ went (7IP, 1H, 3BB, 7K) and has an ERA of 1.04 in 34IP
July 31, 200321 yr Promote levrault back up,when is borland coming back that would be a sweet bullpen!
July 31, 200321 yr Author Promote levrault back up,when is borland coming back that would be a sweet bullpen! Ive seen he comes back at the end of July and here we are...I dont see any room for him in the pen though...Ill keep my eye out for rehab stints.
July 31, 200321 yr There's no room for Levrault or Borland in our bullpen, because out of Almanza, Tejera and Phelps 2 of those 3 are staying on the big club. Then the other 4 are Spooney, Bump, Urbina, and Looper are all staying with the team.
July 31, 200321 yr I think that if Borland or Levrault get Called up either Tejera or Phelps will go down. Almanza is never going down, and they would rather have Spooney up here rather than Borland or Levrault.
July 31, 200321 yr did any of you other prospects followers see the report that the 18 year old dominican prospect the fish signed last season who was touted as the next Vladdy really is 22 and didnt sign using his real name?
July 31, 200321 yr but spooney is on the dl unlike levrault and from what shamrock said borland will come off the dl fast.
July 31, 200321 yr did any of you other prospects followers see the report that the 18 year old dominican prospect the fish signed last season who was touted as the next Vladdy really is 22 and didnt sign using his real name? no you have the link?
July 31, 200321 yr Author I think that if Borland or Levrault get Called up either Tejera or Phelps will go down. Almanza is never going down, and they would rather have Spooney up here rather than Borland or Levrault. Probably not...we need 3 lefties.
July 31, 200321 yr Probably not...we need 3 lefties. Yea, but Spooney comes back he wont be send down once he goes through his rehab.
July 31, 200321 yr i just found the article it was in BA. Remember Ulysses Powel, the 18-year-old Dominican the Marlins signed last summer who was supposed to be the next Vladimir Guerrero? Turns out his real name is Juan Lindesey, he?s actually 22 and he was hitting .179-0-2 through 39 at-bats in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League. man that has got to make the FO feel like dopes, it isnt the first time ( Ozuna, Abe Nunez...)
July 31, 200321 yr Author Yea, but Spooney comes back he wont be send down once he goes through his rehab. If anyone goes down it will be Phelps...MT is proven and AA has the stuff...Phelps is the odd man out unfortunately.

Theres at least 20 players in every teams famr system that aged 1-5 years in the age scandal...you can check out the complete list of frauds on baseballamerica site.
July 31, 200321 yr If anyone goes down it will be Phelps...MT is proven and AA has the stuff...Phelps is the odd man out unfortunately. I agree. Phelps is no longer even being used by Mackeon.

That sucks. The FO has to do some homework before signing this guys.
July 31, 200321 yr WTF can't t.j send aa down i'm tired of having aa release him i don't care i rather have levrault here he is way better i think mckeon needs to send aa down!
July 31, 200321 yr If anyone goes down it will be Phelps...MT is proven and AA has the stuff...Phelps is the odd man out unfortunately. with Bump, Spooney, Urbina, and Looper, they can get the job done against the lefty's. I'd like to see Almanza get sent down, at least Phelps can eat some inning if the starters get rocked.
July 31, 200321 yr Author WTF can't t.j send mckeon down i'm tired of having aa release him i don't care i rather have levrault here he is way better i think mckeon needs to send aa down! huh.
