Star of the Night
Daniel Murphy was certainly the only true star yesterday. Murphy,on a rehab assignment, went 5-for-5 with a double and three RBI. But if you want someone who isn’t just in high-A ball on a rehab assignment, I’ll go with Jesus Feliciano. Feliciano went 3-for-5 with a couple runs scored, an RBI, and a triple. The 31-year-old journeyman is raising some eyebrows with his .383 batting average in the International League, but it’s important to be cautious. He’s not a plus defender, and he has no patience or power to speak of. And he’s not a .383 hitter, no matter what his current batting line says. Still, he’s been playing fantastically, and I wouldn’t mind seeing it rewarded at some point this season.
Goat of the Night: Scott Moviel has been disappointing in the early going for St. Lucie. The 22-year-old pitcher made 13 starts for St. Lucie last season and pitched okay, but he’s been terrible in nine starts this year. While he’s still young enough to figure things out, and it is a positive that he’s healthy, he needs to make some progress this year.
System Roundup
- Buffalo banged out 15 hits to sneak by Lehigh Valley for their fifth-straight victory, 6-5. Buffalo’s now won 10 of their last 12 to find themselves tied with Syracuse for first in the Northern division of the International League.
- Binghamton lost to New Britain, 5-2. Scott Shaw was lackluster once again, and the B-Mets’ offense couldn’t get much going against Twins prospect Carlos Gutierrez, who kept the ball on the ground all game long. They’ll start a three-game set against the Richmond Flying Squirrels on Monday.
- St. Lucie got killed, 10-4, by Lakeland. They dropped three out of four to Lakeland and have lost five of their last six.
- An 80-minute rain delay paused the Sand Gnats’ 6-2 victory over Charleston on Sunday. Savannah did commit three errors—by Wilmer Flores, Jefry Marte, and Alonzo Harris, who now have a combined 34 on the season—making both runs allowed unearned.

Jesus Feliciano: "He’s not a plus defender"? Is this based on a scouting report?
His TZ numbers at CF were always positive, except for a -1 this year. Last year, he was +16 runs/15 games.
In lobby campaign for Chris Carter.
I thought he was a good OF
still .383 is awesome, maybe he just has finally figured it out…very few Ks still

.402 BABIP. Neutralizing park and luck, his line would be 0.315/0.375/0.392/0.767 (0.342 BABIP).
Anyways, if he was going to be promoted, it would be primarily for his defense and for GMJ suckiness.
In lobby campaign for Chris Carter.
can he play second base?
And I imagine that gets pretty ugly when you do the mle translation.
I wonder if Carl Everett believes Jamie Moyer exists.
He has never played the infield.
His mle is still BABIP inflated, but it doesn’t matter much because he can’t be worse (defense + bat) than GMJ.
In lobby campaign for Chris Carter.
obviously no power
but that is still good for AAA and more offense than Frenchy and GMJ are providing right now.
By the way, after the initial Jerry love for Carter he has gone mostly MIA, what gives? I know he looked shaky in RF, but him out there for 6 innings and 2-3 at bats was nice.
That was 2008
There are no 2010 numbers. That 2008 was also the only season he’s been anywhere near that high. The scouting reports I have on Feliciano do suggest he isn’t bad on defense, but that he’s not as quick as when he was in his younger days.
yeah
you can see that in the progression of his sb #‘s where he was topping out above 30 in his early 20’s and now doesn’t even always get into the double digits.

whats with those pitching stats?
anyone know?
On pace for almost 20 steals this year, would be his most in like 9 years.
Can any of our corner infielders like Cambell play
corner outfield??

Who is the hitting coach in buffalo other than Val it looks like everyone is hitting good there
Thole has worked out of his early slump now that the weather has warmed up some
Its nice to see
Bobby Parnell churn some real good relief innings.
Has he learned an effective off-speed pitch yet?

There is the no-movement 95mph fastball and the no-movement 95mph fastball.
- According the Bisons’ radio broadcast, the Lehigh Valley scoreboard clocked a Bobby Parnell fastball at 99 mph. Many, if not most, stadium guns are a few mph hot, but he was clearly bringing it Sunday while striking out five in two innings.
In lobby campaign for Chris Carter.
I believe I read he was at 100 mph last week too
nice comment below hoya…lol
someone explain why he getting used for multiple innings all the time instead of pitching on a Jerry-like, pitch everyday type of schedule. That is more realistic for what any manager would expect of him.

I tried to check it out on Milb Pitch FX, but they don’t have the pitch types, only the locations. I hope he is working on an effective off-speed repretoire. If I remember correctly, I think he had a slider right?

Thanks
Maybe he should look into a sinker.

Or a splitter.
I’ve always liked splitters. Might be more stressful on his hand, but…

but that supposedly has helped Pelf a lot this year
When he controlled his fastball/slider combo he made a good start (remember that bad idea?) so he should really just focus on that and one more pitch. Either a change up or split would be perfect. Of course, if he can control 3 pitches he should be starting.
Actually not a fan of these lookalike logos
Seems like every MiLB team has a cartoony logo with outlines that are too bold, etc. I think they’re all designed by the same consulting/design company. But, hey, if 10 year-olds are your market (and they may be), more power to ’em.
