Farmers only: Why so much rain in Casper?

Mike McKennon

Triple-A: The Bats' magic number is 3 after beating Columbus 7-5, their 7th straight win and 15th in 16 August games. Adam Rosales was 2 for 5 with a double in his first game back, and Josh Roenicke gave up 2 runs in the ninth before Daniel Ray Herrera shut things down.

High A: Juan Francisco and Todd Frazier doubled, but Sarasota was drilled 15-2. Logan Parker had a 2-RBI single, and Zach Stewart had two strikeouts in his perfect inning.

Low A: Devin Mesoraco was 2 for 4 with a homer, Neftali Soto had 3 hits and Mike McKennon homered for the 3rd straight game in Dayton's 9-8 loss. Brandon Waring added 2 hits.

Rookie leagues: Billings' game against the Casper Ghosts was postponed for the 4th straight day. ... Jerry Gil allowed 4 hits and a run in 2 innings, taking his 2nd loss as the G-Reds lost 4-2. I don't know if this pitching thing is right for him.

Adam Rosales barely got a cup 'o joe...

I wish they sent Corey down and let this kid and A. Phillips get some more MLB experience.

Looks good in a Bats uni

You can tell your uncle stuff that you could not tell your dad. That is kind of the role of an uncle. I feel very much like a father sometimes but sometimes I feel like a teammate.

Leatherpants is feeling a draft

An interesting interview with Bowden on how negotiations broke down with their first-round pick, Aaron Crow (HT to BBTF). Crow was the highest pick not to sign. It’s tough to take Jimmy at his word, but it really does sound like Crow’s advisors were absolutely out of their mind with their initial bonus demands ($9mm) and their refusal to negotiate through anything other than email until the last minute. It’s a really big risk on his part not to sign, especially because he’s a pitcher. And in the end they were only 500K apart.

and his inverted 'W'

What do you mean, "blank slate"?

Maybe Bowden lucked out

He should have noticed that before the draft.

Often wrong, never uncertain.

I think we overmeet as a society.

Votto

I’m more a hello man and a welcome man than a good-bye man. And to me Adam Dunn was more a person than a player.

Oh, right.

I think we overmeet as a society.
