Still some Devers fallout here
Usually we talk about the Phillies here, but how about the kid from Arkansas throwing a no-hitter in the College World Series? That was some impressive stuff, striking out 19 Murray St. hitters and making it look really easy. Yes, he threw too many pitches, but when you strike out that many, of course it’s going to take some pitches to get it done. Good for him.
Maybe he’ll be available at the end of the first round of the MLB Draft…
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- Here are some notes about some Phillies prospects, including an interview with Alex McFarlane ($).
- Otto Kemp has provided a spark to the team with Bryce Harper down. He needs to stay on the roster.
- Beware the midseason trade of the reliever at the trade deadline ($).
MLB news:
- The Nationals are promoting yet another top prospect in Brady House. If they can acquire some pitching, they could become annoying quickly.
- Lance McCullers, Jr. is headed back to the injured list, this time with a foot injury.
- The last few hours of the Rafael Devers era in Boston were interesting ($). I wonder how long this deal was worked on.
