20 year-old Angel Cabrera (Reds #40 – 2005) went 2 for 4 with 2 R, 2B, and BB. For the season he is now hitting .281/.388/.404.
LOW A
23 year-old B.J. Szymanski (Reds #2 – 2004) went 2 for 4 with his 13th HR of the year. For the season B.J. is hitting .236/.317/.434.
HIGH A
23 year-old Drew Anderson (Reds #13 – 2004) went 2 for 5 with a 2B and 2 R. For the season Drew is hitting .294/.356/.446. It is becoming increasingly difficult to write about the hitters at Sarasota. Right now everyone there is either too old, or the right age and not hitting. Drew is the only borderline prospect that has been hitting.

AAA
Louisville DNP
Almost 26 year-old (July 15) Chris Denorfia (Reds #19 – 2002) went 1 for 3 with 2 R in the AAA All*Star game.
I was at the Dayton-South Bend game last night. Balfour looked good in his inning of work. Got the first batter to fly out to Bruce and then struck out the next too without much trouble. Hopefully his rehab will continue to go well and he’ll be able to help out the big club soon.
Chattanooga had 16 hits, only one for extra bases..and still scored 14 runs?
Wood got rocked for Dayton for the 2nd time in 3 outings…cause for concern? Young arm hitting the mid-season wall?
Wood wasn’t good, but the defense behind him was atrocious. In addition to the 3 errors there were a few other plays that could have been outs that the defense didn’t make.

Sounds like they’re just getting him ready for the majors!
Looks like Birminghan has their own “Oops” Lopez.
any more sightings of asdorian on the mound for the lookouts?
I was also at the Dragons game last night. Szymanski homer was a huge bomb.
And the defense was awful. Who was the 1st basemen playing last night? Is he supposed to have any upside, because in the field he is atrocious.
