Minor league thread – Mon 4/16

[Brian Walton]

Just two late morning games on the Monday slate with two top 20 prospects on the mound.

Memphis vs. Iowa: Dakota Hudson
Springfield vs. Frisco: Jake Woodford

[stlcard25]

Two guys going who seem to have the stuff to put up better results than they have so far, especially the K numbers. I had read a lot on Hudson with his sinker-slider maybe being a lights out reliever at one point…wonder how long he’ll get as a starter before they start thinking that way?

O`Neill 3-5 2 HRs 4 RBI
Schrock 3-5
Hudson 6 IP Win

[Cardinals27]

I wonder how long before O’ Neill gets a shot in the St Louis outfield? Bader hit a big home run yesterday, but maybe the next time they give the regulars time off the next 2 weekends they bring him up.

It seems like Hudson should miss more bats. But he is usually a groundball machine. Maybe a shift to the pen is in his future. Some have said HHH, (Hicks, Helsley, Hudson) will all eventually be bullpeners. I hope not.

You telling me our bullpen would be this good?

I could live with that lol

Not like it was too relevant… hhh (of wwe fame) holding up some world title belts…
