22 year-old Danny Dorn (Reds #32 – 2006) went 2 for 5 with a grand slam and 5 RBI. The left fielder from Cal State-Fullerton is now hitting .340/.445/.555
LOW A
21 year-old Sean Watson (Reds #2 – 2006) continues to struggle since his promotion to Dayton. He gave up a H, and an ER, while striking out 1 in I IP. In the 11.2 innings since his promotion he has given up 13 ER, 19 H, 5 BB while striking out 13. But the scouts say he has a pitchers body, so he has that going for him.
HIGH A
25 year-old Jay Garthwaite (D’Backs #14 – 2002) went 2 for 4 with a 2B, grand slam and 6 RBI. For the season, the Washington state native is hitting .262/.335/.480.
AA
23 year-old Javon Moran (Phillies #5 – 2003) went 4 for 5 with 2 2B and a 3B. Since being promoted Moran is hitting .325/.359/.411. He has 14 SB in 21 attempts. Javon has fastguyitis, the symptoms including being afraid to take a walk, being thrown out stealing so many times that you actually HURT your team, and repeated bunting despite playing at a level where that is an out 80% of the time. Side effects include triples, people who think you are good on defense just becuase you are fast, and Dusty Baker saying “if I had 9 guys with fastguyitis, we would be unstoppable.”
AAA
27 year-old Tim Bausher (Mariners #27 – 2001) who was acquired this week for Mike Burns, went 2 innings, gave up 6 H, and 3 ER. Wayne Krivsky continues to feed his OCD with another arm that looks EXACTLY like the arm he traded. FOR THE SEASON Bausher has a 5.15 ERA with 41 K, 37 BB, and 83 H in 71.2 IP. But the scouts say he has a good high pitchers butt.
Very cynical, and very funny today, Matthew.
gracious.
Jay Bruce sat out both games of the Dayton DH…no explanation on why he didn’t play.
