Murphy makes his debut as Horne dominates
ByTwo Yanks’ minor leaguers were suspended after testing positive for banned substances. I’ve never heard of either kid.
Mike Ashmore says Ian Kennedy is going to join Colin Curtis in the Arizona Fall League. So I guess he is eligible after all.
Triple-A Scranton
Game 1 (4-3 win over Lehigh Valley in 7 innings, walk-off style) makeup of yesterday’s game, which was flooded out … this game was actually played in Lehigh because SWB’s park is still flooded, so Lehigh lost via a walk-off on their own turf … that must be tough
Kevin Russo & Austin Jackson: both 2 for 4 – Russo tripled & scored twice … Jackson drove in the winning run with a walk-off single, swiped a bag, scored a run & K’ed
Colin Curtis & Juan Miranda: both 1 for 3 – Curtis doubled, scored a run & walked … Miranda K’ed
Shelley Duncan: 1 for 2, 1 R, 2 RBI
Yurendell DeCaster: 2 for 3, 1 RBI, 1 K
John Rodriguez & Reegie Corona: both 0 for 3 – Corona K’ed

Ivan Nova: 6 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 5 K, 6-5 GB/FB – 52 of 76 pitches were strikes (68.4%) … nice outing after he’d been struggling
Jon Albaladejo: 1 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 0 K, 3-0 GB/FB – 6 of 11 pitches were strikes (54.5%) … he actually blew the save in the top of the 7th, but walked away with a win
The box score for Game 2 is taking for-freakin-ever to update, and I don’t really feel like waiting around. There’s really not much to see; Igawa got rocked, Melancon did too. That’s about it.
Double-A Trenton (2-0 loss to Erie)
Austin Krum & Edwar Gonzalez: both 0 for 4 – Krum K’ed twice & threw a runner out at home from CF
Matt Cusick: 1 for 4

Jon Hovis: 1.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 3-0 GB/FB
Low-A Charleston‘s game was suspended due to rain at the end of the fourth inning. They’re going to finish this one up tomorrow, so I’ll update the stats then. Here’s the box score anyway. It’s worth noting that they faced this year’s 7th overall pick, who was mading his pro debut.

Ronny Marte: 3 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 6-0 GB/FB – 29 of 46 pitches were strikes (63%)

One aspect of Jackson’s game that never gets mentioned is his baserunning — he’s stolen 21 (or 22, unsure if b-ref has updated to include tonight) bases this year, and only been caught 4 times.
It’s nice to see although I would imagine it’s mostly because of his raw speed and the fact that it’s easier to steal bases in the minors.
Alot of minor league catchers are actually quite good defensively.
Haha. Those banned substances did not work for those 2 DSL kids. Not at all.
“This is an outrage and needs to be looked into further. I can’t imagine the outright corruption in that organization!”
“For Diamond Cutters, I’m Peter Gammons.”
“This is an outrage and needs to be looked into further. I can’t imagine the outright corruption in that organization!”
“For
Diamond CuttersCubic Zironconia Cutters, I’m Peter Gammons.”FTFY
Much better. LMAO, literally.
I’m still pissed that Kei Igawa has never been banned for PED’s.
That jerkface should be taking all the winstrol and pureed horse testicles he can fit in a syringe. For the money we’re paying him and the return he’s given us, he should be our personal organizational guinea pig for dangerous new experimental designer steroids that can increase your lean muscle mass but may possibly kill you or turn you gay.

Kei Igawa should be tested for Performance Reducing Drugs.
Igawa isn’t that good but to be honest he seems like a nice guy. Not his fault we overpaid him.
And just because you are insecure about your sexuality doesn’t mean that you should post homophobic comments.
I’ve never heard of either kid.
Neither one of them are Facebook friends of mine. The only Facebook friend of mine on the juice is Pawlikowski.
Andy in Sunny Daytona personally knows every single Yankee minor leaguer of note. You thinking what I’m thinking?
Andy in Sunny Dayona = Annie Savoy

It all makes sense.
hahaha.
Yeah, I do steroids. I eat that shit for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Where’s the fuckin’ protein Ma!!!
Yeah, my collar is popped. Because I’m the fuckin’ man, and everyone should know it.
No Slade? I want my money back!
So many kids in our farm are talented but inconsistent. That’s why it’s nice to see this virtually every day:
Carmen Angelini: 0 for 4, 1 K, 2 E (fielding)
Poor kid.
I’m really rooting for him, maybe he can turn it around.
Maybe my cat will start pissing in the litter box. I wouldn’t bet on either one happening.
But seriously, I really hope he figures it out. I’m going to take a trip out to Staten Island sometime next week and it would be great if that’s the day he performs and surges forward.
Hopefully you can get us a nice firsthand look at Cotham.
Yeah, my job doesn’t start until September so if I can find out when Cotham starts I’ll definitely make it out there and send back a report.

I should check that out. In the meantime, this is what I’ve gotten to solve the problem: http://www.diapersfordogs.com/
They have diapers for cats, too. Ships either Monday or Tuesday.
Why?
He banked $1 mm & probably has the org contracted to pay for his college education. That’s a nice head start for any 20/21 year old.
I was waiting for this reply. I would love for him to turn it around, but if he doesn’t, I am sure he is better off than never being drafted.
guesses on who will join kennedy and curtis (why him)…?
Montero, probably a bunch of relievers. Kroenke, Dunn. Maybe Pena. Jackson too.
And Cody Ransom. We’re sneaking him in under the rules.
Mum’s the word.
is it pronounced Horn or Horn-e
Hornayy
; )

What will Sterling’s Call for Jesus be when he comes up? I just miss seeing his name in the DOTF, so I figured I bring him up.
And Jesus sends one to the HEAAAAAAAVENS!!!
Jesus crucifies another one!
http://www.bobandtom.com/gen3/.....seball.htm
I thought he was the one crucified…?
WOMAN: Why does this dummy have a bucket on its head?
KRAMER: Because we’re blind to their tyranny.
WOMAN: Then shouldn’t you be wearing the bucket?…
That ball will reappear in three days!
hahaha ietc
Jesus Crush!!
“Thank You Jesus!!”
What do you guys think Murphy spent that cool million on?
From Cot’s:
“Ninety percent I’ll spend on good times, women, and Irish whiskey. The other ten percent I’ll probably waste.”
- Phillies pitcher Tug McGraw, on his plans for his $75,000 salary
I have a new respect for that man.
i now have a new facebook status. thank you.
You can thank the 90% for Tim McGraw.
Igawa should be tested for performance decreasing drugs.
We have a winnar!
haha PDD
You bastard!! You got that from PSD, didn’t ya!
Jackson had a good day. 4 hits will do that.
would love to see an XBH or two, though. only 8 in his last 40 games.
I just realized that Ajax is from the same hometown as one of my favorite TX punk bands. Small world.
bowling for soup?
just kidding. if i had to guess i’d say you’re talking about the riverboat gamblers.
Excellent JR Murphy isn’t a bust
