Morgan
Freeman- Sometimes this world can truly be a horrifying place. They
just wanted to see a damn movie
This will
be a shorter version this morning – spent last night with Savannah and got in
late. Also, have an interview with Mets pitching coach Frank Viola and another
post on various minor league notes.
MLB –
Jon
Heyman –
Padres are going to try to sign Quentin and Street. so
presumably, no trades for them for now
Joel
Sherman -
Acquiring a controllable reliever would provide the Mets with
a long-term bullpen option but, it won’t be easy to complete a deal.
Clay Bucholz since May 27: 51.1 IP, 2.63 ERA, 45/9

Phillies prospect Tyson Gillies, who was arrested two years ago for
cocaine possession before the charges were eventually dropped, has been
suspended indefinitely by Double-A Reading. Jim Salisbury of CSNPhilly.com
reports that Gillies “violated a team policy” and the situation has nothing to
do with his previous arrest, but for the second time in three seasons the
23-year-old outfielder who came to the Phillies from the Mariners in the Cliff
Lee swap will have to put his development on hold.
MLB - Mets:
John Ricco - “We're watching every day the same
thing people are, but you also can't fool yourself into thinking that there's
one guy that is going to be the be-all and end-all solution to all of our
problems. You can fall into that trap and make some big mistakes. It's one of
the good things about having an experienced guy like Sandy. He's been down this
road before.”
Sandy
Alderson said the Mets basically aren’t
willing to part with any of their top-tier prospects, essentially only those in
Class A.
AAA – Buffalo:
Last
night – L, 0-4
Excellent game pitched
by Charlotte’s Simon Castro (5.0-IP, 1-H).
SP Collin McHugh was okay… 6.0-IP, 3-R… but RP Jenrry Mejia was better… 2.0-IP, 0-R, 1-H… the relief
kid is coming around…
CF Matt den Dekker is back to the leadoff spot, but once
again went 0-3 (.209).
Buffalo only had two
hits, one each from C Ron Johnson (.201) and SS Oswaldo Navarro (.243).
AA-Binghamton:
Last
night – L, 0-10 – Ouch (Mets teams so far 0-14)
Must we talk
pitching? Zack
Wheeler – 3.2-IP, 8-ER, 6-K, 3-BB… unhitch the wagons…
Gary Seagren called me at the game and said they
had pulled Wheeler. I thought he meant they scratched him. I told Michael Fuller
that and wished him well on his journey. How embarrassing.
2B Reese Havens – 1-3, .232
DH Mike Baxter rehabbed – 0-4
LF Eric Campbell – 1-4, .317
A+ - St. Lucie: -
Last night – L, 1-4… (1-18)
Boy, I didn’t miss anything, did I?

another one… 5.2-IP, 4-ER, 4-K, 1-BB, 3.49… Taylor
Whitenton (.06) and John Church (3.27) combined for 2.2
scorelessiniings.
A run!
Scored by CF Alonzo Harris (CF)
on a single, stolen base, and wild pitch in the 9th.
Only Lucy hit… what a night.
A – Savannah:
-
Tonight – L, 2-3… (3-21)
Good job by SP Alex Panteliodis, but we’ll talk about that in another

Lawley (.266), his 10th
of the season.
A-Low – Brooklyn:
Tonight – L, 2-4… (5-25)

Kingsport:
Double-dip
Game 1 – WIN! 2-0
Okay, it’s ready to
send Steve Matz to Brooklyn or somewhere a
playoff is going to be played – Another gem:: 6.0-IP, 0-R, 2-H, 9-K, 1.96 – (I’m
going to talk to him later on today). Remember, he’s structurally 100%, ‘sitting’
96-97, hitting 99, and just turned 21.
Not much hitting… didn’t
need it.
Game 2 – ANOTHER WIN – 2-1
SP Persio Reyes got
