An 0-2 night as LHV falls a run short, 5-4, and Reading loses a sloppy 7-2 decision in New Hampshire.

Eshelman and especially Elniery Garcia seem to have gone backwards this year, Garcia dating back to last year really.

Was the illegal stuff that garcia was on enhancing his pitching or is he just rusty from the lay off and sore shoulder? i guess we will find out in a few more starts. too early to tell.

As the CLW pulls out of its early season funk winning five its last seven, REA now appears to be the weak link of the system. Aside from Dominguez, there isn't really anybody worth following there at this point, unless Romero and Kilome straighten themselves out.

Aside from Dominguez, there isn't really anybody worth following there at this point

He is in AAA now.

Romero and Kilome are definitely worth following. And Randolph theoretically. After that it is not too much until Haseley and Sixto get there ideally in the second half.
