So MM, have you popped the champagne yet?
-
He needs work. 53 strikeouts in 188 AA at bats is not good, regardless of his other numbers.
-
Why? You're one good week out of second place.
-
Cohoon made his first appearance in Buffalo last night, giving up five runs in five innings. I'm a bit surprised by the timing of the call-up, given that he'd been off his form a bit lately (he was homer-prone his last few starts in Binghamton.)
-
You really have to like his location on those breaking pitches.
-
Cohoon, not normally a strikeout pitcher, fanned 11 in 7 innings last night while giving up two unearned runs and notching his first win of the season. His line on the season so far: 3 G, 19.0 IP, 1-0, 0.47 ERA, 16 H, 20 K, 3 BB, 0 HRs allowed. A few more games like this and he'll be shuffling off to Buffalo sooner rather than later. I think the chances of seeing him in Queens in September are at least 50/50 at this point.
-
Cohoon's first start of the year was fair: 5 IP, 1 R, 7 H, 5 K, 2 BB. Binghamton was winning when he left, but Akron scored five runs over the next two innings to win 6-4.
-
Last year I spent two days in second place. This year is shaping up differently. I'm hoping that all my players get their slumps for the year out of the way in the first two weeks. That, and Holliday only has one appendix to remove.
-
What's your team name?
-
For now. I think we'll know who won the draft in October. I don't expect too many waiver wire pickups to be difference makers.
-
You can autodraft the first half of the draft and be OK. (As long as you make sure Adam Wainwright is on your "do not pick" list, that is.) You'll have a better chance of finding diamonds in the rough in the second half than your computer will, though.
-
It looks like Cohoon, from what I can tell. http://www.metsminorleagueblog.com/get-to-know-mets-prospect-mark-cohoon/ I found this looking for info. I haven't found definite word on where he's starting out, but I have to assume he'll be in Binghamton.
-
Thanks again for running it.
-
Wednesday nights are bad for me, but I'll manage if necessary.
-
I have a title to defend.

It cost something like $3500 per person back in 2007, but I can't remember if that included airfare. I also can't tell you if children get a discount.

It was one of those whirlwind two-week bus tours that CIE does. We landed in Heathrow, spent a day in London, headed up to Scotland, then down through the Lake District and the north of Wales, ferried to Dublin, spent a full day there, drove to the Stud Farm in Kildare and then Cashell Rock, did the Ring of Kerry, went to Blarney Castle and Waterford Crystal, ferried back to Wales, saw Castle Cardiff, the city of Bath, Stonehenge, and then back to London. Exhausting, but awesome. We lucked out because the one fully clear day was for the Ring of Kerry, so we got some great shots (including Dingle Bay and a view of the Skelligs from our bus). I wish we could have seen more of Dublin, but it was the halfway point of our trip and we needed to get laundry done. We did get to Kilmainham Gaol at least, along with Dublin Castle.

It came out the summer I turned 7, no other movie has ever left as big of an impression on me, and I can't imagine one ever will. The adult me would concede that Empire was the superior movie (and lament the degree to which the franchise tanked from there). But the original Star Wars still holds up really well, and will always hold that special place.
-
I'm partial to Psycho (with The Birds a close second), but my wife would go with North by Northwest were she on this forum.

coming down the home stretch...

I got really worried that Cargo wouldn't get back to me. I had him last year, and had a hunch on him, but I didn't want to grab him too early. (The other guy I talked myself out of grabbing too early was Jonathan Broxton. Whew!) A big key for me was that a few people autodrafted the second half. I was grabbing guys like Kelly Johnson and Scott Rolen while other people were autodrafting guys who had been benched or demoted. The one thing I did wrong was let Hong Chih Kuo go after two appearances. I was looking for one more reliever, and decided I could do better. I had some super luck as well. The fact that Tommy Hanson has fewer wins than Tyler Cippard isn't such a bad thing when you also have Tyler Clippard. Basically, everything went right. Even Lucas Duda is contributing (9 RBI in 36 AB's since I picked him up). But thanks to Vic and everybody else. Now to figure out how to top this. -

-
Cohoon pitched eight shutout innings on Sunday (five days rest), and really appears to be on track after his initial struggles with the double jump.
-
Cohoon just had his third straight quality start, after having none in his first eight tries at AA. His line for his last 3 games: 3-0, 20 IP, 15 H, 2 BB, 18 K, 1 HR, 4 ER. The caveat is that all three of these games came on more than five days rest, but it's definitely an encouraging sign.
-
Cohoon had his first strong outing at AA last night, going seven innings and allowing one run on three hits with a 5/0 K/BB ratio. He's been struggling at Binghamton to the tune of a 5.80 ERA (even after last night), but considering that the jump from high A to AA is considered to be the hardest in the minors and he was promoted from low A, it's reasonable to cut him some slack.
