Notes: Still trying to figure out why Ian Krol went only 1.  Carter had a huge day today.  And it's my birthday.  Yay me!

Updated: Krol was pulled because of a rain delay.  He's fine.

Ian Krol

The Cougars had to use their bullpen for eight innings, as starter Ian Krol’s outing was interrupted in the second inning by a 1-hour, 7-minute rain delay.

Thank god.

I saw he pitched 1 inning. Figured he got hurt.

From what I hear, he's not especially gifted at 2B.

I doubt he can play short.

by thejd44 on Jun 1, 2010 2:58 PM PDT up reply actions  

Especially last week

He has more extra-base hits in last six games than he had in 45 games before that. Finally the plate discipline has payed off.

by Manstein on Jun 1, 2010 4:22 AM PDT up reply actions  

I'm a huge Sogard fan

Really think he has the chance to be more than the utility guy everyone projects him as.
Reminds me a little of Ellis, an infielder who it seemed didn’t do anything really well, and Beane sneaked into a trade…

by stranahanahan on Jun 1, 2010 10:46 AM PDT up reply actions  

I don't think Sogard is a utility guy in the making

He’s a mediocre defensive 2B. I don’t think he can handle any other position.

by thejd44 on Jun 1, 2010 2:58 PM PDT up reply actions  

Where's your info coming from?

I thought he was a pretty good defensive 2B?

by stranahanahan on Jun 1, 2010 3:03 PM PDT up reply actions  

This was posted by Nico after the trade:

The quote is from Noah Frank, Media Relations Director for the Fresno Grizzlies:

Every scout who asked me about him claimed he heard from someone else that Sogard’s defense was suspect. Luckily, I had the benefit of watching him all season, and I know that this is a gross generalization. While he does not have the greatest natural range, he puts a glove on anything he gets to and makes good decisions in the field.

Sickels had Sogard as the Padres 20th best prospect and said this:

Gets on base, not punchless, defense is so-so but I like the bat enough to keep give him this grade.

How about Shawn Haviland

He got roughed up a bit tonight giving up 5 runs in 5.1 innings but posted a 7/1 K/BB ratio to up his season rate to 66/12 over 61.2 innings. He is old for the league at 24 in A+ but the Cal league is a tough place to pitch and that is a pretty impressive K/BB ratio.

by OkayJay81 on May 31, 2010 9:40 PM PDT reply actions  

Hes got a very impressive K:BB ratio.

And a very respectable ERA for the Cal league.

And he's a Harvard graduate

Get him up with Breslow, and the A’s might cure cancer in the bullpen.

by bobnothing on Jun 1, 2010 2:25 PM PDT up reply actions  

Haviland should be in AA right now

which is good, because SOMEONE needs to be bumped up to AAA. They have zombies and dead people starting for them, and have to rely on the bullpen 3 innings into games after appendages start falling off.

But no, really, the starters for Sacto lately have been awful. Like, Lenny DiNardo has been the best one. And John Halama. Vinny Mazzarro should be in AAA right now.

by noava22 on Jun 1, 2010 10:17 AM PDT up reply actions  

Grant Green is 4-5 so far...

Still in the 6th inning.

Who’s 0-5 with 4 strikeouts (though he does have a sac fly)

He has 13 hits in last four games

That is pretty hot. Let’s just hope he shows some staying power.

by Manstein on Jun 1, 2010 4:29 AM PDT up reply actions  

Nice to see him getting hits

and it looks like he’s starting to slow down a bit on picking up errors.

But he’s still got a lot to do to start looking like the prospect we thought we were getting when he was drafted. The doubles are a good sign but he needs to start getting extra base hits with regularity and taking a walk once in awhile. That said, it’s much too soon to write him off. He’s had a disappointing debut but his professional career is only about 200 AB’s old, still plenty of time to get settled in and establish what type of player he is going to be.

by OkayJay81 on Jun 1, 2010 9:34 AM PDT up reply actions

Is there any way we can get an updated season slash line posted alongside what they did for the game?

But for those who care, Aaron Crow no has an era in the 5’s in AA. Not that I have anything against the Royals, but its nice to see Crow biting the kid in the ass.

one of the games that midland beat up on NW Arkansas, it was against Aaron Crow.
