I like Ike

[Frayed Knot]

So just in case you're well into baseball withdrawal by this weekend, you can always tune in to the AFL All-Star game on the MLB Network Saturday night.

Looks like Ike Davis will be the only Met on the roster

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Yeah Evans was added to the roster recently - apparently as a replacement for someone although I'm not sure if that someone was a Met.[/quote:3ezq0f3i]

The Snooze says that Lucas Duda went home with a wrist injury. Evans was an ez choice to replace since he lives in AZ.

Catcher Lucas sprained his wrist - Du-Da, Du-Da

[Guest Edgy DC]

Ez, peazy. We want Kirk Nieuwenhuis! (By, we, I mean, I do.)

The Rafters, meanwhile, took yesterday's game in extra innings on an RBI double by Marcus "See-Through in the Sunlight" Lemon , Texas prospect and son of Chet.

• Nick Evans: 1-4, 2B, RBI
  
  
• Scott Moviel: 1.2 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 2 SO (his first run allowed this fall.
  
  
• Josh Stinson: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 SO

He's built like a catcher, but hasn't played behind the dish in his pro career.

Have you read that they're trying to convert him into one?

The kid on the mound from the Rangers in there throwing some serious heat, he's got a little funky motion going too.

AFL All Star Box Score

[Guest Edgy DC]

Four RBI day for Ikey yesterday. Scott Moviel coughed up a few runs though as the Surprise Parties lost 9-8.

[Frayed Knot]

John Sickels on Davis: "His swing was longer than I�d been led to believe. Not all scouts like him, some think he has severe problems with breaking stuff."

[Guest Edgy DC]

Good day yesterday. Ike Davis goes 2-4, with a walk, a strikeout, and 2 RBI. Ruben Tejada goes 1-3, with a walk and a run scored. Josh Stinson throws two scoreless, allowing three baserunners and striking out one.
