News
Goodness, I forgot all about this last night.- Of course, the headline news is Jered Weaver's seven-inning shutout of the Orioles, starting out just like his brother did in 1999 by shutting out his opposition. He plans on giving his parents the game ball.
- Eric Gagné would just as soon not visit Las Vegas as a 51, as it
means he's not pitching with the Dodgers. Of his rehab appearance, Jerry
Royster said,
"He did not miss his spot in 17 pitches. How do you pitch with that kind of command? This guy didn't throw a pitch that was hittable," Royster said.
- According to Travelerocity, Angels roving pitching instructor Mike Comstock says Nick Adenhart will be moved up to Rancho within the next few weeks. I must say I can't wait, and it sounds like I'll have another road trip to take soon. Comstock likened Adenhart's control to that of Dwight Gooden.
- Update: (out of order, but I'm trying to keep the Bees story last) The Dodgers have optioned Lance Carter back to Las Vegas, and called up Matt Kemp from AA Jacksonville. Good luck with that, kid -- you're gonna need it. (Hat tip: Jon.)
Update 2: Also via MLB.com.
- The Bees have some serious cheesecake going with the Honeybees. They're not cheerleaders (though they sure look like they coulda been back in the day) from what I can tell; it looks like their job description is to be pretty. It's so ... un-Mormon. I like it!

Bulger: 1.0 IP, 2 ER, 2 H, 0 K, 1 BB, 2.18 ERA
Minus Jered Weaver, minus Kendry Morales, minus Tommy Murphy, minus ... heck, they still managed a win, though Chris Bootcheck got chased early — or was it an emergency relay forced by Weaver's unplanned exit from the Bees' rotation? Whatever, the Bees rallied for five runs in the seventh partly on the strength of a two-run double by Reggie Willits. Howie Kendrick had an uncharacteristic-of-late 0-4 day. Jonathan Rouwenhorst got the win in relief; Jason Bulger gave up a pair of runs in the game's final frame while striking out none.

Thompson: (L, 2-2) (in relief), 0.2 IP, 1 ER, 1 H, 1 K, 1 BB, 3.81 ERA
A really heartbreaking game for the Travs, who just seem to have a long list of those lately. Arkansas lost it in the bottom of the 14th when Rich Thompson gave up a walk-off double to Brant Colamarino. Every hitter in the Travs lineup got a hit (and many had multi-hit days), but they couldn't hold on to a three-run lead. Chris Hunter turned in a better-than-average (for him) game with four earned runs over seven innings, striking out three.

Fernando Rodriguez got it done and improves to 5-2; Michael Collins' 3-4 night brings his line to .326/.390/.433, and for the Angels, that's just amazing that they have anyone in their system willing to shake hands with ball four. Leadoff man Nate Sutton had his second homer of the year, a solo shot.

Statia: 2-4
Trumbo: 1-3
Mosebach: (L, 3-3), 6.0 IP, 4 ER, 9 H, 2 K, 0 BB, 1 HR, 3.43 ERA
One big four-run fifth did all the damage, as Bobby Mosebach wasn't awful but got deservedly tapped for the loss. Cardinals non-prospect Kyle Sadlowski came within three outs of getting his first professional complete game shutout, and three-hit the Kernels.

Carrara: 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 0 K, 1 BB, 0.77 ERA
I don't think Franquelis Osoria is learning all that much at Salt Lake; he seems to have reverted to throwerdom. Facing five batters, allowing three earned runs on two hits and a walk, he took the first loss of his AAA season. At the rate he's going, he might be a candidate to rejoin the Suns pretty soon. Otherwise, it was a pretty good offensive night for several 51's, who just couldn't overcome Osoria's suckiness.

Raglani: 1-4, 1 K
Lundberg: (W, 5-1), 7.0 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 3 K, 2 BB, 2.30 ERA
Spike Lundberg had another fantastic game and seems to be emerging as
the ace of the Suns staff with a 10.9 K/9 and a 3.09 K/BB. He and the
Jacksonville bullpen three-hit
the Huntsville Stars, and accomplished the first five-game series
sweep of the season in the Southern League. Jacksonville is tied for
fourth with five shutouts.

Merricks: (L, 0-3), 3.1 IP, 3 ER, 4 H, 5 K, 2 BB, 4.11 ERA
Opposition John Maine used to be in the Orioles system, a sixth-round pick out of the University of North Carolina-Charlotte. He wore out his welcome there without ever really doing anything distinguishing, even in his brief stints in the majors, and so he's now a Met. He was down on a rehab stint, recovering from finger soreness and inflammation of the middle finger on his pitching hand, so don't read too much into this. Maine didn't make the club out of spring training, and it's unclear whether he's bound for the New York rotation except as an emergency fill-in.

Therefore: the fact that so many of the Dodgers actually got hits is pretty impressive.

Pratt: (W, 3-2) (in relief), 3.0 IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 4 K, 3 BB, 4.08 ERA
Wow! Considering how the Braves beat up on the Catfish — sweeping the Fish in a four-game series, with extreme prejudice — this qualifies as revenge. The Fish scored thirteen runs in a wild seventh inning that saw seventeen batters get to the plate; in between, Russell Mitchell blasted a three-run homer in the rout. Rome reliever Adam Stanley made only one out while giving up seven earned runs on seven hits, including the Mitchell homer. Tyler Bullock relieved him — and promptly gave up ten more runs. Rome made three errors which resulted in seven unearned runs for Bullock.
