Farmers only: The Backyardigan
Triple-A: Drew T. Anderson homered and Ryan Hanigan was 5 for 5 in Louisville's 8-4 win. Adam Rosales, Chris Dickerson and Danny Richar each had 2 hits, and Carlos Fisher and Daniel Ray Herrera combined for 5 strikeouts. Hanigan's batting average is up to .323 with a respectable .808 OPS. The Bats, by the way, have won 8 of 9, are 8 games ahead of Toledo for first place in the International League West and are 23 games over .500 (71-48).
Double-A: The Lookouts blew a 7-2 lead in the 2nd inning and lost 18-16. Lots of hits to go around: Danny Dorn had 2 homers, Sean Henry, Chris Valaika and Justin Turner had 2 hits each and Drew Stubbs was 3 for 5 with 2 RBIs. Despite all the scoring, Ramon Geronimo extended his earned-run-less streak.
High A: Juan Francisco homered in Sarasota's 6-5 loss. Logan Parker was 2 for 4. Francisco is tied for second in the Reds' system with Brandon Waring and Todd Frazier at 17. Dorn has 18 total homers.
Low A: Neftali Soto was 2 for 5 in Dayton's 2-1 loss. Jeff Jeffords, fresh off his unsuccessful double-promotion, suffered the loss in this one, too.
Rookies: Juan Duran was 0 for 3 in the D-Reds' loss.

Interesting that his
BA, OBP, and SLG are so close to each other. Somehow he hit a lot more singles in AAA…

Is it me or
Does Hanigan look like a joyous Dunner?
1st Cincinnati Reds Player: These guys don't look so tough.
2nd Cincinnati Reds Player: Yeah, that's what Custer said when the Indians took the field.

more like joy-less
but yeah, I can see a resemblence. Which is funny, because Hanigan looks nothing like Will Ferrell.

Well,
Your own blog not only features no new content, there’s actually less content than there was a couple days ago.

Looking at the Bats Box Score
Chris Dickerson got pulled in the 8th inning for a Right Handed hitting Pinch Hitter. At the time there was a righty on the mound so it wasn’t a situation you usually would make that change in the DH spot.
Maybe Dickerson is getting the call today?

Is it time to add Hanigan to Dickerson and Rosales for call-ups. I mean in LLM, A Phil, and CoPat really the long term solution.
Maybe we could send all three plus Fogg for Spilboroughs? Haha, oh yeah the Rockies don’t have enough room for that kind of SHIT!

llm, a phil and copat are not long-term solutions
neither are Ranigan, A-Rose or C-Dick.

how does it feel?
to argue for those three fools? hhaah
Come on now these guys deserve a shot at the ML level. They have proven they can produce at the AAA and havent been given a chance in the ML’s. Where as the other three have proven they can no longer produce at the ML level and they are washed up.
I’m not clamoring for Dickerson to be our CF of the future but goodness I would rather see him in the field than Patterson!

i agree that they deserve a shot
but these guys have all had several years in the minors to prove themselves and have been solid though not spectacular. they’re not going to be difference makers, but yeah, i’d probably rather see dickerson and hanigan than valentin and patterson.

I don't see Dickerson as a long term solution but..
Until he has a chance to play some at the ML level I’ll not know anymore than I do now about this kid’s ability to adjust… Give him a shot..FTH
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.

appropos of nothing, pt 2
as far as adult watchability, backyardigans is the best. He loves it, but it’s not like I want to rip my eyes/ears out. It’s silly, it’s cute, it’s fun, it’s watchable.
Whereas Go Diego, Go! is the worst piece of shit in the world. I can’t watch 10 minutes of that without wanting to kill myself. It’s just so boring and repetitive and stupid, and he absolutely loves it. Dora is marginally better.
But the best of the best is Sesame Street. Like fine wine.

I prefer Diego over Dora
but we’ve wondered off of Noggin lately. Been watching more PBS when we even watch TV. He’s really digging on Seasame Street lately.
