I've already planned a few trips to see Profar in Round Rock, and enjoy some delicious Salt Lick BBQ next door to the stadium.

I'm about 70 minutes from Dell Diamond. When it was an Astros affiliate, I saw guys like Chris Johnson, Brett Wallace, Brian Bugosevic etc. Also remember seeing Eric Young Jr and how it was obvious he was the best player on the field. Wily Mo Pena crushing balls in BP. SAL FASANO hanging on in AAA. Good times.

If only we had this thread last year during the summer months... :bucky:

Well, how about that. Miami has called up Jose Fernandez who would've been making his Double-A debut this week.

He'll pitch in the majors next Sunday.

I usually hit up around 10 Baysox games a year.

A great stadium, has a chick-fil-a right before you enter, and then easy backroads to get back home once out of the parking lot.

Bundy, Gausman, Schoop shall be fun to watch.

[EmpireWF]

Northcraft has been kind of a late riser but starting to get some buzz in prospect circles. I suspect he's used in a trade at some point down the road, but keep him on the subradar for deep leagues.

Memphis got rained out tonight.

Zach Wheeler doesn't have his command tonight.
