Re: Arkansas game thread
Yeah, hopefully the control was just first game jitters. It took him about 3 innings to adjust to High A. Might take a little longer to adjust to AA. I expect he'll have a few more bumps, but thats probably a good thing for his development, learning where he'll get tripped up with better hitters.

I did my prospect run-down and had to do a double take when I saw Gilbert was up to AA. Nice 1st game of it to.

The 2 hit batters and 2 walks is more what Im referring to.

Re: Arkansas game thread
I had to do a double take to see if that was a David Gee comment.
David however would have added that he should have also picked their bats up and launched it toward opposition dugout ala Roger Clemens.
