Derek Holland a Blaze!!!

Hopefully this isn't already posted in another thread, but I didn't see it anywhere. He was promoted from Clinton to Bakersfield today. Yet another player on the fast track it appears. I have a total man crush on this kid (yes, girls can have man crushes!) so fingers crossed he holds up in the hitter friendly Cal League.
That's at least 6 starters for the Blaze (assuming they keep Romero in their starting rotation) so maybe Kasey or Evan Reed get promoted? Hopefully Kasey!
Go John Danks!

I was about to move this to the front page...

Man, I am heartbroken...
My goal has always been to make the front page! LOL

Do you want the Rangers to lose?

I want John to whip their butts! :-) I still haven’t forgiven them for trading him…

You want to see...
...guys like Ian Kinsler and Chris Davis and Brandon Boggs fail tonight?
by Adam J. Morris on Jul 12, 2008 5:11 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I don't look at it like that...
John’s my boy and I want him to do well against his former team. I would never root for Chris to fail, but I also don’t think that I would be rooting for him to get the winning hit if John was the pitcher.

she might not be a ranger fan
but she’s a fan of the rangers farm system and brings good information about the minor league players, in particular redhawks players

Too late.
Maybe this should lead to a nickname for him…
Charbroiled is my suggestion.
Anyone else?

Because I have a secret longing for Chase Irwin and ab03 and am waiting for them to ask me to marry them...
In the meantime, I occupy myself by posting about my RedHawks and future RedHawks. Despite popular opinion, you can be a fan of the minor leagues but not like the major league team…

Man, why are y'all being so hateful on Bev?
She’s a Redhawks fan who comes on here to talk about OKC baseball and her love for current/former OKC players.
There’s no harm in that.
Lighten up, brosephs.
She’s already going to burn in hell for all eternity for being a Red Sawx fan, so why pile on?

He was having a very nice year
in Clinton. 7-0, 2.40, 91K/29BB in 93.2 IP. Just 2 HR’s allowed, too, and a nice 1.30 GB/FO ratio.

clinton rotation
does that put Neil Ramirez in line to get Holland’s spot?
or do they go tandem with Swanson and Castillo (when he’s healthy)?

Weirdness
Emerson Frostad was promoted to OKC [leaving FRS with one catcher] and is starting tonight at C over Tea and Richardson.

Andrus and Tea aren’t playing tonight because they’re on the way to play in the Futures Game I bet.

Bad timing....
I am going to the Clinton game on Monday. It was supposed to be a Holland start, which I was looking forward to. I now have some Dutch disappointment, but hopefully another young stud will step in.
shroomers site shows Holland starting in Bakersfield Monday. Good luck there Dutch.

Gomez is no slouch, either
he should be fun to watch, and you’ll still get to see Beltre as well.
