Thanks to David Lee via Covechatter for reporting that Martinez hit 101 MPH on the radar gun. Martinez also seems to be slowly getting his walk rate down. This was his 3'rd consecutive appearance without a BB. He has 2 BB's against 8 K's in 7 IP over his last 6 appearances.

Dr. B:
ReplyDeleteHave you heard anything about Christian Arroyo as to when he might be coming back from the oblique injury? Thanks.
Any word on Christian Arroyo?
ReplyDeleteNope
DeleteSan Jose is reporting that Ryan Lollis (OF 2nd highest BA in Cal League at .345) got promoted to RVA after yesterday's game. What kind of moves do you suppose the Giants will make to create room for him? Does Carbonell go down? Does Mac get moved up? Could be interesting.
ReplyDeleteRyan Lollis is an organizational player who goes where he is needed. We'll see who he replaces in Richmond, but Carbonell going to extended spring training for awhile then to Salem Keiser would be a decent bet.
DeleteWow, you really think there's a chance Carbonell goes back to salem?
DeleteThey moved Javier Herrera to the DL (sore elbow).
DeleteWhat do you think of Blackburn's true ceiling in the Majors, DrB? Is he a true back-end starter or can he outperform the consensus once again to be a mid-end starter?
ReplyDeleteWrenzie
Ceiling? Probably a #3 starter. Most likely outcome? Probably fringy #4-5.
DeleteWhile that may SOUND like a drop based on his recent prospect list positions, we have to remember that he was a 16th rounder. AMAZING find at that positions.
DeleteWilliamson hitting .316 in AA is a pretty decent. Still a ways to go, but it's a hopeful sign.
ReplyDeleteOh, I think it is a very hopeful sign! Don't worry about the power. It will come. The first order of business for any hitting prospect in the EL is to hit for average. You do that, and you are a legitimate prospect.
