3 Commments

  1. The question is which bat other than possibly Stroh to AA ( questionable at best ? Right , Todd ?) bumps up to AA once Wood outgrows low A ball pitching ?
    Gotta be Hassell 3!

    1. Brendan Collins truly embracing the yeomans duty of pitching in in the busy pen .
      Interesting how Harrisburg has been holding down the Fort with role players awaiting cavalry reenforcements from rehab and lower levels of development
