a little OT, but I just spent 45 minutes trying to respond to a different thread. I was sent to the Log-in screen over and over again. This kept thwarting my post.
Anyone else? Or is this just a Mid Atlantic problem on Saturday?
I don't believe I was suspended for 45 minutes? I'm not sure for what offense that would be...there was no notification either. So again, I don't believe it was a suspension.

Upon further review, I CAN post on everyother thread without issue.
The one thread I want to post a reply on, still takes me to the log-in screen, everytime I hit "Reply".
So it's not me....it's You

Interesting opponent for Peoria today.
LHP Josh Hartle, 2024 draft...he fell to the 3rd round. Was mocked at the best pitcher entering the 2024 season and landed in every 2024 Pre Season mock. He fell apart 4 weeks into the season once ACC play began. He's was highly dominant in nearly every start in his college career until April 2024.
Now he seems to have righted the ship...at least in High A ball....he's 9-2 this year with Lake County and has a 2.50 ERA. Around 90 K's in 90 innings, and 30ish walks.
Saw him play twice in 2023 and twice in 2024.

The system has LHP assuming health and development.
Doyle
Mathews
Mautz
Henderson
Hansen
Best RHPs in the system?
Roby after surgery recovery
Hence after surgery recovery
Davis
Dutkanych IV
Robberse after surgery recovery?
...?

Davis is LHP. You may be thinking Brandt Thomspon?
Rincon is injured, Chen-Wei Lin is trying to come back from injury.
What surgery did Hence have? I missed it if he did.
Roby isn't back until 2027.
There's also Winquest, Rajcic and Bedell. None of them knock the knees...so to speak.
We're left with Praying that Tanner Franklin and the likes of Cade Crossland become the next Michael Jordans of RHP

That's it from me today/tonight....and no tomorrow either.
Heading to Charlotte for the game tonight. I'll give an update on Monday if anything interesting happens.
Would like a 3 hit game from JJ and Church. And a 2 HR game from 420 Blaze It.
GO CARDS and CARDS System.

I thought I saw that Hence had TJ surgery but misread that. He's down working on strengthening his shoulder.
I just assumed Davis was RHP. They've liked their LHP prospects lately

Hence needs to study how Nolan Ryan worked out all year long.

Nolan was a freak of nature --- closest physically to him i have seen would be Matt Holiday. Large men with enormous foundations built around leg strength --- only the good lord also reached down and touched Nolan's right arm. Hence needs to study how Pedro Martinez was able to have such a great career with a similar type frame.

good post.. great examples
what prolly helped Pedro was being a change up pitcher, iirc. isn't Hence more of a FB guy?
