Thoughts and pictures of my local minor league baseball team the New York Penn League Connecticut Tigers; a Detriot farm team. We'll still be looking at former Navigators/Defenders players along the way....

There are a ton of game photos posted there by Dave Nelson of 2010 Fresno players many of them former Defenders. Take some time and check it out; it's time well spent.
Special thanks of course to Mr. Nelson for his public postings!
A reminder that every picture of mine that I've taken/posted is on the Picasa site that links to Blogger.

kelly, i hope you read this...and dont comment here, but quickly call your sons agent and start him into looking for ways out of the org

this is from brian sabean to andrew baggerly of the sj merc

“Triple-A baseball isn’t very good,” he said. “I’m going to tell you that right now. Especially from a pitching standpoint. Anybody who can pitch is in the big leagues. Most of the prospect arms, the stuff that really can neutralize hitters, are at Double-A. You look at what some of our (struggling hitting) prospects are doing there.

“So these guys (like Posey) are facing Four-A pitching, and you better have a lot of people see ‘em at different times and write their reports and almost have a straw poll of private ballots. Because I don’t know what it means anymore, in the PCL. It’s almost like years ago.”

lewis and frandsen escaped from the asylum

i urge all young, healthy and talented men of baseball to stay far away from the above blood sucker

kelly,

i shouldnt be surprised by sabean's words either...especially when they are about the farm system...it just takes me aback when a baseball exec says things that demean his own players

it just doesnt seem that the current management of the big club is conducive to bringing up young talent

thank god that decker is in fresno...that guy loves kids

at least brett is in good hands there.
