The success the major league club is enjoying is officially secondary to what Alirio Ferrebus is doing in DSL. Another day, another double and homer. We are in the presence of 18 year old DSL small sample size greatness.

Could not agree more with this post. Put the guy on the plane to Heathrow.

Not sure you remember, but during the DSL extended games I posted some video of him hitting a HR that was for the second day in a row, so he's been hitting all Spring. Here they are again:

Avery Owusu-Asiedu was 2-for-4 with a home run and a double in the @Threshers 4-2 win and Alirio Ferrebus hit his second home run in consecutive days during DSL Extended Spring Training yesterday! pic.twitter.com/BvJanSPPg3

Ferrebus is actually a real bus. That dude is thickly muscled. Nice short, sweet swing. He annihilated that hanging slider.

Caleb Ricketts with 2 homers tonight. I really hope he can catch and throw.

Another day, another double and homer

Turns out it was just the conclusion of the continuation of the June 3 game. No additional hits.

I think they were new hits. He was 0-1 in that game Monday when it was suspended. Whether that team got to the new game today is another story. Pretty sure his season stats are 4-6 with 3 HR and 1 2B so far (and a BB and SB).

I've been a little down on status of "the farm" due to Abel going backwards and Crawford not taking a necessary step forward. So, glad to celebrate glimmers of hope when we get them -e.g. Miller, Caba, Klassen -and add to that last night's 2 HR game by C Caleb Ricketts for Reading. Not sure of his defense but he is more than holding his own at AA.
