I’d wanted to make a longer post today, but I think that’s going to wait until Monday. Luckily there’s enough links out there for me make some kind of post this morning.
Think it’s important to re-post this, in case it got lost in last night’s recap. Eighth round pick Colton Cain signed last night. He was one of the Bucs’ big targets. You can read WTM’s write-up on him here.
Also, a good story from SI about Gift Ngoepe. He’s currently got one of the craziest triple-slash lines I can recall seeing; he’s hitting .261/.375/.295 with Bradenton right now. That on-base percentage is pretty encouraging for a kid who I assume hasn’t played at a very high level of competition to this point in his life. Still, damn, I can’t recall ever recall seeing someone with a slugging percentage that’s eighty points below his OBP.
Both DK and John Perrotto note the pissy behavior of a few of the Pirates’ pitchers after their loss last night. I wonder if this had anything to do with Jackson’s demotion.
