Just don't call him Mr. Winckowski, nobody calls him Mr. Winckowski.

I'm going to take the drive down to Greenville tonight and catch a game. First time I've ever gone to one of their games, I usually stay local to Asheville with the Tourists here.

Love that park and area. I'd tell you to make sure you enjoy Greenville as well, but... you're going back to Asheville which is also awesome. Elsewhere, Granberg to Portland, Castellanos to the IL (missed the last 2 games). By the way, are the milb.com player pages no longer showing game logs for others? |

We've been down to Greenville a few times since we've been here, mostly to the Zoo, and there are a couple of cool parks I like to take the kids to. This is the first time in probably two years I've done anything solo (sans kids), it's a rare treat. |

Any recs for Asheville? Going to be spending a week there in September Packs Tavern and Bhramari Brewery are places I enjoy downtown, Tupelo Honey has a downtown location, and one in South Asheville, the South Asheville one is more comfortable and spacious. In the River Arts District New Belgium has a pretty nice brewery set up that usually hosts live music, I saw the Jayhawks there a few years back. If you're down for Weird, head over to West Asheville, there is West Ashville Pub, and Oddities, which has things like pickled Animal Carcasses and other odd things, but be careful around Asheville, crime has been up and there have been a bunch of shootings in places normally considered the more Touristy... If you like the outdoors let me know and I can give you a ton of other recs. |

Not sure if it's any different since they were purchased though. |

So far Van Belle hasn’t been fooling guys, some pretty hard contact. FB topping about 91 in the first, curve was around 75, change mid 80’s, judy gave up a monster shot to left center. I have a bunch of pics i’ll upload later.

Winckowski is out after only 3IP and 55 pitches. Something to monitor.

Doesn’t appear that he was particularly effective, maybe that was why he’s out of the game

There's plenty of areas to pull off and hike: www.blueridgeparkway.org/hiking/At the end of the Parkway is the Smoky Mountains National Park, you can drive directly there via highway in under 2 hours or take the longer but scenic route along the parkway. Clingmans Dome is the attraction, I think the observation tower is the highest point east of the Mississippi (it's the third highest mountaintop) but there's many other hiking options. The Appalachian Trail connects at Clingmans Dome too if you want to say you walked along the trail. |

Nick Yorke so far tonight: 2-2, BB, HBP Black Basalm Bald I highly recommend, if you get to the Smokey Mt. visitors center it’s highly likely you will see elk. Max Patch in Pisgah is gorgeous, like straight out of the Sound Of Music... Hooker falls, and Dupont are also a must in my opinion. And Tourist games are a great value, just bring sunblock. Oddly hotter at that field in summer than down here in Greenville. Stadium orientation I guess? |

We've been living in Hendersonville (just 20 min south of Asheville) for the last year and a half - LOVE it (after 28 years in Raleigh - too much traffic, too much heat and humidity). We are in DuPont, the Pisgah, off the Parkway, and the Arboretum constantly - we try to get 6 miles hikes in every other day (Cat Gap Loop and Pink Beds in the Pisgah, Ivestor and Flat Laurel Creek off the Parkway, Reasonover in DuPont are some favorites).
Hendersonville is loaded with breweries - and Oskar Blues is in Brevard...Sierra Nevada near the airport.

Hickory's starter tonight, Cole Ragans, was a 1st-round pick back in 2016. Pitched well in 2017, but then missed three entire seasons with two Tommy John surgeries. Tonight was his seventh start, his ERA is down to 3.16 and he's got 41 strikeouts to only 9 walks in 31 1/3.

By my count the 25 prospects were 6-47 with 0 extra base hits along with a rough start for Winckowski
