Tomorrow night some of the big guns are out:
Hickory: Martin Perez
Bakersfield: Michael Main
Frisco: Kasey Kiker
OKC: Neftali Feliz
Tonight Wilfredo Boscan, Tim Murphy, Doug Mathis and Omar Poveda are the headliners:
Hickory (Boscan) vs. Bowling Green 6:00 PM
Bakersfield (T. Murphy) vs. Modesto 9:00 PM
Frisco (Poveda) vs. Springfield 7:10 PM
OKC (Mathis) vs. Memphis 7:00 PM
All credit for the farm probables go to Shroomer as usual.
And from Zywica's new gig over at DMN:
Oklahoma City: RHP Doug Mathis vs PJ Walters (7:05 start)
Frisco: RHP Omar Poveda vs Kyle Mura (7:10 start)
Bakersfield: LHP Tim Murphy vs Connor Graham (9:05 start)
Hickory: RHP Wilfredo Boscan vs Matt Moore (6:00 start)The featured matchup here is the Low A South Atlantic League pairing, where Hickory will play its first game as a Rangers affiliate. Boscan looks to follow up on an excellent summer in the Short-Season A level Northwest League, where he put up a very impressive 70 K / 11 BB ratio in 69.1 innings. He and the Crawdads face another Rays up and comer in Moore, a lefty with excellent stuff.
Murphy is the club's 3rd rounder from last summer's draft and had a nice debut, finishing the season in Low A. Poveda faces a pretty impressive Springfield (Cardinals affiliate) lineup that includes fast rising first round pick Brett Wallace. Boscan, Murphy and Poveda were all listed among the Rangers' top 30 prospects (11, 22, 24, respectively) by Baseball America this winter.
We'll have recaps on all of the games in the morning.

Boscon gets to face Tim Beckham. Should be a good test for him.

for every Hickory game
you should be able to click the ‘A’ beside Hickory in the banner to launch a nice little player
I think I have Frisco set up to do the same – launch an audio page when you click ‘A’
BAK won’t have any audio, but I’ll work on the OKC ‘A’ to get it set up, too.

what does he have that makes him different than, say, Kennil Gomez?
(Speaking of Kennil, is he at Bakersfield this year?)
by FirebatM3 on Apr 9, 2009 7:25 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Kennil
had a first half as impressive as Feliz and Holland (as a groundballer of course). I bet he makes it to AA for the second half.
by Goyogringo on Apr 9, 2009 7:49 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Boscan's change is plus
He is going through levels at a year younger, he has demonstrated a little better control, and has stayed healthy
But that’s not to discount Gomez. Before his injury he was climbing up the ranks and if he is all the way back he should make a steady climb this year as well

Bolden was listed in CF
Now that is one former clg 1b turned outfielder with some nice athleticism.

You can hear Font's fastball hit the catcher's glove almost every time
Does that mean he is throwing hard?

What the hell? from the NMLR board
Q: Randy A. from NYC asks:
If Engle Beltre puts it together (big if), what is his upside and who can we compare him to?
A:
Matt Eddy: We’ve bandied about some lofty comps for Beltre in our Prospect Handbook, but if everything clicks he could be a Felix Pie type player, with equal parts power, speed and average.

I hope he catches on as a bench bat somewhere. Of course, as a regular would be better.

actually, I am pretty pumped about our triple A bullpen (Turnbow will last another week, until the Pirate returns) and the outings by Boscon and Font for Hickory.

Odd line
According to the summary, he got the first guy out, walked the 2nd guy who then stole 2nd. So then IBB the third batter. Threw a wild pitch to the 4th batter allowing runners to move to 2nd and 3rd. So then IBB the 4th batter. Then walked the 5th batter, forcing in the winning run.
Ugly.

Anyone else see this note about bakersfield from Scott Lucas
“Barring a late change, Bakersfield will not be announcing its games over the internet. Last year’s announcer has departed (to Hickory, oddly enough), and apparently there isn’t a broadcast budget. This vexes me greatly. Aspiring announcers at CSU-Bakersfield, please contact the club”
