Ryan Rohlinger will be in Houston tonight, just got called up from AA CT. He's a good friend of mines brother! I hope he does well if he gets in there.

Im pumped for Ishi and Sandy. I'm the away bat boy for the NH fisher cats and Connecticutt played us a lot. Ishi hits the ball very hard and is a real nice guy. I wasn't able to see Sandy much but when i did i was pretty impressed. Sandy was in the futures game right?

That's great news. I hope both Ishi and Pablo both make good impressions in the majors.

Yep along with Villalona.

16 homers for Ishikawa in Triple A Fresno, I wasn't aware he was tearing it up like that.

It's been a breakout season for Ishikawa so hopefully that will translate into success in the majors. Coming out from high school, it just took awhile for Ishikawa to figure things out. At the same time, I never considered him a fast tracked prospect anyways.

Both he and Sandoval have a chance to impress management and make their case as a part of the future. It will still be a couple of years before Villalona and Posey get to the majors so they got to make the most of it.

Angel V hit a grand slam in the 7th yesterday.

MadBum continues dominating the SAL. Yesterday he went Six scoreless innings with 10 K's and two of those K's came against 8th pick Gordan Beckham.

Season totals, 14-3 record, 1.45 ERA with 155 strikeouts. I can't wait to see him in San Jose next year.

Bumgarner has a good chance for the league Triple Crown.

Great year for Angel V so far also. 15 homers, 60 RBI's with a 260 average has really been a solid year for a just turned 18 year old.

San Jose is going to be awesome next year.

Angel V hit his 16th homer of the season tonight.

Could we see Posey in the bigs next september?

Post #176 » by **Hopper15** » Sun Aug 31, 2008 4:12 pm

I would say yes...even though they didn't give him a major league contract. Benji's up after next year (if they don't trade him by next July) and it's obvious he's not coming back.

The SAL playoffs started today, MadBum dominated game 1 with 10 K's in eight scoreless innings.

Post #178 » by **Stanford** » Thu Sep 4, 2008 6:57 pm

Feel a little bad for the guy he pitched against. He got Cain'd.

Post #179 » by **Hopper15** » Fri Sep 5, 2008 4:27 pm

Posey knows the way to San Jose. Gonna get some playoff run.
