Browning has been our top lefty in Memphis and I can’t for the life of me understand why they haven’t given him a shot yet. 40 man roster is not an issue either; there are a number of guys who could be optioned without being claimed. Right now both lefties in St.L have eras over 6.00. Surely Browning can do better then that and should be purchased asap. Dickson should be brought back up too.

I wonder if Jackson’s solid Memphis season might make Tyler Greene into an add-on trade chip for someone.

Why did Taveras have to make an out in the All-Star game? Ruined my night.

As bad as the cards need an effective loogy hope BB is the guy..

Thanks for the link. Only problem was that the next video was of Albuquerque’s Alex Castellanos hitting a deep jack to the opposite field.

Off topic… But does anyone having any scouting information on Barret Browning impressive numbers at Memphis this season as a LOOGY?

Clip of Walsh’s last HR : http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?content_id=22656653&sid=milb

First time I’ve seen his swing. Pretty obscured by the pitcher in the clip but you can tell he turned on that mofo.

Gotta bump Taveras to Memphis after that all star appearance and should bump Walsh up to Springfield as well.

Perhaps they will enlist Colin Walsh to destroy the Asian carp menace! Yes, a fighter for truth, justice, and the American carp.

I’m sure he’s already injuring Fish out in the Mississipi River when he hits his homeruns left handed.

Profar will be the top position prospect. He plays a premium position and will stick there. Most view OT as a RF, not a CF. He will be downgraded for position. Machado might be listed ahead of him as well, based on ceiling. If Myers doesn’t lose eligibility, he should be the top position prospect. Regardless of rankings, OT is a stud.

Yes, I think many women, children, and tiny kittens of the midwest are in imminent danger of destruction. I’m not sure if Walsh will go puppy kicker on them though … but one should never underestimate the destructive power of a player given up for dead in the midwest league who is trying to regain prospect status.
