Loading ...Yesterday, I reminded Bo that we wanted to hear about how he was doing also….got this report overnight:
Hey sorry I haven’t been giving you updates on me but I haven’t really pitched. I’ve only thrown one inning so far and had a walk,ground ball that was either scored a hit or error I don’t know, then a pop up, and then a strikeout. They rolled the inning after the strikout for pitch count. They fouled a ton of balls off! I’m pitching tomorrow so I’ll let you know how I do. By the way, Logan (Parker) is killing the ball. That guy can hit.
So, we get a short report on Bo and a quick report on our other “Spotlight Player” who seems to be doing pretty well himself. I’m not making comparisons, but the first time I met Bo, we were talking in the stands during a GCL game and he was telling about how well Jay Bruce could hit. So, he knows how to spot good hitters, which, IMO, bodes well for Logan Parker.
Looking at today’s lineup at Rosecrans leaves me to ponder the following:
What’s wrong with the following statement?
“Now batting for the Cincinnati Reds, the Designated hitter in the ninth spot, Chad Moeller. Moeller.”
Also from Rosecrans regarding today’s game in the first, yes I said first, inning…
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before, Milton gives up a homer. Cuddyer drilled one to left. 2-0 Twins. Walk and flyout ends the inning. Milton getting hit pretty hard. Twins 2, Reds 0
I really hope Logan Parker comes out and kills the ball right away. I really like what I have heard about him, and what he has said in interviews. I think the main test for him however is still a year and a half away when he steps into AA. I think he is advanced and polished enough right now that he should handle A ball fairly well, so hopefully he tears the cover off the ball and gets to AA and does the same thing.
