Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Looks like our pitchers had a good day vs Cincinnati. 13ks in 7 innings - Walter with 3 in 1 inning. Keep an eye on Webb…
Other than the Brito throwing error.. it was a stellar night for the Guardians in the "run prevention" side of the equation.. Andrew Walters was exceptional.. exceptional, indeed..
 
Here is Mandy’s write up. Walters was sitting 98-99 and hit 100


Guess that is why they focused on 1-year Barlow as w Gaddis switch, they could have:

Clase, Stephan (if healthy), Hentges, Aleman, Gaddis, Walters, Smith, Herrin as their 8…. No more room for Morgan or Sandlin even, let alone DLS
 
Bazzana update today.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Travis Bazzana hit two home runs while Micah McDowell and Mason Guerra each went deep once in Oregon State's 14-11 loss to Utah Sunday afternoon in the three-game series finale at Smith's Ballpark.

Bazzana finished the day 5-for-6 with three runs and five runs batted in. He doubled in the first, hit a two-run home run in the second, drove in three on a long ball in the third, singled in the seventh and singled again in the ninth.
 
Jerson was once a fairly promising relief arm. Thought he would be back this year, not sure if it's a "new" injury or just a continuation of his previous one..

Just note, this is the 7 of the 10 moves to get from 175 to 165 this year.
 

All of his strikeouts on breaking balls. Curveball looks pretty good. Under the radar arm for surey progressing slowly. The Johnathan Rodriguez of pitchers in the system.

This is from BA's minors transactions. First I've heard of Zibin, Delucia and Geo Rivera still out, that sucks. The 2022 pitching draft class is cursed. Messick and Humphries have to carry the load.

Also, first I've seen that Sanquintin was released

I didn't see any names on the release that I recognize really outside of Panchart and Sanquintin, so nothing of surprise at the end of the day...

That looks like a legit AAA team on paper...
