I’m back from Vegas and was completely off the internet (minus one e-mail to Jeff) for 5 days. I cannot, in truth, remember a time I’ve done that in the last decade. It was both exhilarating and maddening. So, needless to say, I’m not where I would like to be at with my responsibilities at work, home or Future Redbirds for that matter.

Today was a bit of an adjustment period for me to get back to central time if you will and try to re-establish my normal daily routine. That has been moderately successful but other items are going to prevent me from finishing up the first of the draft recaps today. What I can promise is that you’ll have a 10 round recap each of the next four days and we’ll finish this thing up on Friday. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

The farm went 2-2 on the final night of this fine weekend, find out who was able to close it out, Dirk style.

After a night that saw the River Bandits pound out 20 hits for 20 runs, they decide to take the night off.  Also tonight, P.J. Walters‘ change makes a comeback in a win but the rest of the farm teams hold their heads high in defeat.

My apologies to everyone waiting for the DFR’s for this weekend.  Unfortunately, I had major computer issues this weekend.  They are, however, on the way.

Lots of games, not lots of hits.

To the DFR!

Only 3 games on the docket, with a full slate coming on Thursday. A late comeback gave the organization a winning night.

As you may know, AZ is in Vegas probably recreating the movie Hangover so that leaves me to mind the store while he’s gone.  Consequently, we will not have the scouting reports up for draft picks in the rounds 11-50 until Monday probably.  We will have them broken up into 4 posts as follows next week.

11-20
21-30
31-40
41-50

Please accept our apologies for the delay.

Another crazy day with Day 2 of the draft in the books.  Much to talk about, but don’t forget about the guys we currently have in the farm.  Pedr….ahem, Carlos Martinez started for Quad Cities, as it was a pitching filled day for the farm.  Check out the details below!
