• Amaury Marti Watch

    Amaury Marti is currently hitting .424/.509/.633 in 39 games for the Mexican Red Devils of the Mexican League, also known as Liga de Amaury Cazana. Bud Selig ordered the Cardinals to banish him to there, in fear of the major leagues losing competitive balance.

    Amaury also refuses to accept the watch curse. He has the power to curse, and the power to bless.

8/25/07 Daily Prospect Report

I missed this but as discussed in the comments yesterday Juan Richardson is out for the year with a leg fracture. It’s really only relevant in terms of who gets to replace him as Richardson isn’t a prospect.

Musing about Mark Hamilton

(Photo from Springfield News-Leader)
About a couple of months ago I was getting pretty excited about 1B Mark Hamilton. He was hitting .290/.348/.520 after overcoming a tough April in a power suppressing environment,  hitting 8 homers in June. (Thanks to the glasses, I’ve heard).
