All Minors were good

Pawtucket 3-3 against both divisional first place teams on the road.

8-4 road trip so all and all not bad.

We have played more road games than any other team to this pt, but now we have a MAJOR homestand coming up from this pt on thru the first week of August.

Lets see where this goes......

.500 ball while I give some youngsters a shot. Alright! I'm calling that a success.

Please trade for some of my veterans so I can call up more young players.

3-3 week on the road. Meh.

Good news was Barajas wasn't awful. He wasn't Daly, but he wasn't awful.

Bad news is "The Logo" is starting to feel VERY, VERY human.

Almost had a heart attack when I saw Baker got injured his first game. Thankfully it was only a one day injury.

Also, how about Kang-xi Han (International 1st round pick bust) throwing a no-hitter? He's got to be the only knuckleballer in the BLB right now, right?

This Bats team is pretty damn good.

This Bats team is pretty damn good.

Wow, standards have dropped over the seasons??

This Bats team is pretty damn good.

If you can trim that Stout lead down to 15 by the All Star Break, you're right back in it.

A rather disappointing 3-3 week. We've had a couple underwhelming weeks in a row, but we're still 13-8 this month and one game out of the division lead.

Center fielder Pete Foster returns this week after missing some time with an oblique strain.

[BradZ]

Bleh. 1-5 week, 6-15 for the month of June and it will be a dogfight just to get back to .500 by the end of the season (32-38 right now). 6.58 ERA for the week as just about every member of the pitching staff took a week off, except for Robby Sears who is turning in a fine season so far.

Young bench player (can play a little OF and a little corner IF) Toby McDonald has been a nice surprise. He was called up to take a roster spot when Poling was lost for a month due to injury. In limited duty (very small sample size) he's gone .304 | .361 | .625 | .986 with 4 HR in 56 ABs.

[Carlos]

3-3 as Dallas continues to play well.

We won our series against Pittsburgh, but had our bullpen destroyed in the process.

We only publish 3 types of VIR related news:

1) Milestones
2) POTW winners

between those two items you get plenty of burn.

and then we also include this for the other followers' enjoyment: 3) catastrophic injuries. The Daly injury tested well with the Male 25-48 demo.
