Shelby Miller ALERT!

After watching today’s starter get pummeled by the Washington Nationals (and then watch the bullpen not do much better), it’s great to turn an eye to two pitchers the organization holds in high and see them succeed. Lance Lynn, being steady but not ‘wow-ing’ people and Shelby Miller, the ‘wow’ of the Cardinals farm system right now give the Cardinals two arms that, at the latest next spring, give the Cardinals flexibility to remold their rotation or temporarily the backend of their bullpen.

On to the DFR!

The farm was split today with a 2-2 record, while a Carlos Martinez gem salvaged the night for our starting pitchers.  Nick Additon wasn’t too bad either, but you’ll have to read on below to get the details!

In the 2+ years that I’ve been running the site, I think I’ve banned one or two people. Periodically, the site freaks out and tells all the visitors (including me) that it has banned them. I’ve deactivated the widget that handles IP banning in the hopes that you won’t get the faulty message anymore (and that I won’t get the subsequent e-mail about how you’ve been banned — I’ve gotten about a dozen in the last two weeks).

The downside is that if I get some real trolls visiting with the IP ban turned off, I won’t have a way to deal with that. Should that happen, and I hope it won’t, I’ll have to reactivate the widget and try to find a separate workaround.

Sorry if you’ve been inconvenienced with the ban message recently.  It’s not you; it’s me.

The Cardinals so far have signed 27 draft picks (per CardsInsider on Twitter – official Cardinals account) which includes Lance Jeffries and Casey Rasmus (36th round).

UPDATE - Ryan Sherriff (28th round) has a picture of himself and another guy in Cardinals gear in a locker room.  I’ll assume he is one of the 27.

BJ Rains also has 7th rounder Nick Martino signed as well (4 of 27 found)

I’m working to get the rest of the names. Please drops links in the comments if you find reports of other signage.
