Ha. Everyone seems to enjoy that. I dunno…I was just born with it.

Oh. Do they show other teams for us? I bought milb.tv last year thinking I got to watch all the games, but to get nothing but upper level games was kinda disappointing. Did they expand it this year? Or was SI just a random occurrence?

Well, batters faced = 3 x innings + hits + walks + HBPs + reeaches on error, no?

Mike Dunn is currently striking out basically every third batter he faces.

2009: 57 K in 41.1 innings (174 batters faced) = 32.7% of batters faced result in a K.

You know what I want? Milb.tv to cover ALL the damn minor league games. Is that too much to ask? Honestly, I would fork over more money than MLB.tv to see some of these prospects play. Why do I care if I can see the Marlins play the Braves? I want to see all the prospects for the Yankees play more. Damn Milb.tv only shows mostly AAA games, and some select other games from AA.

I actually don’t want Montero to be moved up this quick. I wanted him to dominate a High A this year. I usually like prospects to have one year (atleast) where they just tore apart a league.

And great to see the GCL squad.

I heard that, unlike Montero, Sanchez has multiple position options both outfield and infield.

Despite the Yanks’ anemic hitting over the last seven games, there’s really no need to rush Montero’s bat to the Bronx. I’d be happy to have him hacking up minor league pitchers if it means we get a more complete and developed defensive player in the Bigs by the end of 2010 or the beginning of 2011.
