22 year old Lead off hitter, Javon Moran went 4 for 5 with 2 R and 1 CS. Javon who came over in the Corey Lidle deal with Josh Hancock is hitting .476/.524 in 21 AA Plate Appearances. Does anybody know why he only has 21 PAs this year? I can’t find him on Sarosata or Dayton’s roster.

For the second day in a row, its tough to picke out just one hitter. This whole team is crushing the ball.
But 12 round draft pick Adam Rosales gets the nod again. Adam went 3 for 5 with 3 R, 3 RBI, a HR, a 2B.
Adam is now hitting .399/.522 with 13 BB, 5 HR, 12 2B in 147 PA. Time for a promotion.
GCL Red Sox 5, GCL Reds 3
3B, and 35th round draft pick, Angel Colon hit his first professional homer and went 2 for 3 with a 2R, and an RBI. He is hitting .367, .389 in 82 PA
“Adam Rosales gets the nod again … time for a promotion…” Bite your tongue, young fella! We get a crowd pleaser down here in Billings, and right away you want to take him away from us. Let him suffer long bus rides and McDonalds another month – OK?
DA,
That’s a great point. Next time I will try to list a players BB or I will list batting average.
Here is John Sickles take on him. He actually put him in his mid-season top 50. Although he said he was taking crack when he did that. He still likes him though, here’s what he has to say about Moran:

After Josh Hancock’s “impressive” four inning, four hit, 2 ER performance, Jeriome Robertson threw four innings of his own giving up just 1 hit and striking out 6. So that should put things in perspective.
