Perez was sitting at 91-92 and topped out at 94. I was kinda expecting a little more heat(though he was very effective)." From what I've heard the Memphis gun is 2-3 mph slow - So if you add 2-3 mph to the readings that puts Perez about 93-94 topping out 96-97. By the way, does anyone know what most minor league parks use for a stadium gun - Stalker, Jugs, other - I assume Springfield and Memphis use different guns?

The corresponding move was a demotion to Palm Beach for John Mikrut. I don't think they could be moving Dew along any faster than what they are right now.

I´ll start noticing Robinson when he learns to take a walk. Though if he were to continue his +.200 slugging (doubtful) I´d take notice w/o the walks.
