Jarren Duran- of best player in all of organized sports fame- was at it again tonight
2-4 w a SB. No doubles. No triples. For shame.
Seems like Ian was at the Lowell game and got to see northcut, howlett, and Machamer which is nice
Quiroz with another homer in Portland too

That kid Howlett looks like a steal. I really hope there vision is executed regarding building the bullpen through these last couple of drafts. I hope we find just one starter also.

I've been following his progress. He's had a good year. Has shown a lot of power. Once/if he cuts down on his K's...watch out. As far as a starter goes our only hopes right now are Houck and Shawaryn. The HS kids are still a ways away. |

Howlett has definitely exceeded expectations and has a good chance of moving up the rankings.

Howlett's going to make an enormous jump on 9/1. Like, the kind of jump you guys always want us to make with guys and we don't.  Per Ian, Northcut's HR was a bomb. |

Gotta love how easily he jumped into pro ball with a ridiculous number of xbh and not too many strikeouts. Anyone catch anything about his defense? |

Gotta love how easily he jumped into pro ball with a ridiculous number of xbh and not too many strikeouts. Anyone catch anything about his defense? We only made 1 short trip to Ft Myers this summer for 2 games and Howlett was at 3b only 1 (DH other game). As remember.. Only 2-3 balls hit to 3rd. 1 he backed up on when didn't think should have, but did make a strong throw, which was too late to catch the runner unfortunately. Not enough of course to lay any kind of judgement defensively on the kid, but he did look like he knew what was doing at the plate. |
