68ip 66ha 16bb 64k for DeSclafani in AA

might have to start buying in soon

[Mainge]

Those strikeouts get me all in a tizzy.

[dim]

Moran 3-4 makes me happy.

I rarely see games where Brent Keys doesn't get on base at least twice.

9 K's from Descalfani is exciting to see.

Michael Brady's numbers still look great this year. He's 26 so he isn't much of a prospect at this rate, but he should earn a call up to AAA or possibly even a big league try out some time next year.

Mark Canha's OPS is over .800 for the season now.

[fauowls44]

It is a debate.

I never said it was lucky. I said "maybe it was silly luck." Maybe he was inducing a lot of weak contact, maybe he wasn't, I don't know. I just think it's silly to deduce one way or the other.

And yeah, generally speaking, it is luck every time a pitcher throws a good game without K's. That's not a strikeout rate that can be successful longterm, so I'd rather not see it. I also don't think a start like that every once in a while is a big deal so I didn't care really. I only commented because Hugg said I'd hate that line. I do hate that line, as I should, but that doesn't mean I think it's relevant or representative of the type of pitcher he is.

In regard to "luck", I think there's a difference when it's, say Felix Hernandez, who puts up a line like that than Brian Meadows. In that case, I'd say Meadows was more lucky than King Felix who is coming at hitters with great stuff but not getting Ks for whatever reason.

But for the most part, I agree with you. All you had to point out that I was misreading what you had written instead of accusing me of putting words in your mouth.

Realmuto is also having a better month (albeit SSS as well): .333/.438/.542 in 24 ab's

Conley continues to impress.

Avery Romero has begun to fall back down to earth with his numbers. One of the many cases of how a lot of fans (myself included at times) get over excited about prospects WAY too soon.

Other than that a pretty boring day for prospects.

[Miamarlin21]

Sanabia has been rehabbing in Jupiter for a while (per his Tweets) but he is running out of time to make it back this season. If he doesn't get into game action within a week I would guess he won't make it back this year (because the minor league season ends on Labor Day.)

Marlins-related minor league transactions, for Aug. 8-15, from Baseball America:

-The O's traded C Ronny Paulino to the Tigers for cash.
-The Angels rescued P Dontrelle Willis from Long Island of the Atlantic League, signing him to a minor-league deal.

[Erick]

Sam Dyson probably has a career in the big leagues. Probably nothing special, but he could replace Webb in the pen next year (if they choose to not bring Webb back).
