Opening night for AZRL.
Mike Olt making his MiLB debut tonight.
Engel Beltre, OF, Rangers (High-A Bakersfield)
As a 19-year-old, Beltre was overmatched by California League pitching last year, which brought even more attention to some of the non-baseball issues in his game, as he plays with an edge that the optimist would describe as intense, but others might use more colorful language. He gained some national attention this year for starting a brawl with a game-winning home-run trot that included a snail’s pace and taunting his opponent, but for the first time since 2008, his play is earning attention as well. He’s a true five-tool talent who is finally coming into his own, batting .444 (24-for-54) in his last 14 games and .326/.374/.464 overall, and at 20, he’s still young for level, despite the repeat performance.

Mike Olt - 2013 A.L. Rookie of the Year.
He declined to accept the award as to not show up his fellow rookies. Incentives earned from being named ROY were donated to a local charity. He did not report this donation on his tax return.
So far Doug Mathis's watermark in the bigs is the game he started in Cleveland against Sabathia
Went six, gave up one run
Anyone remember that game? Sunday, day game
Profar, 0-1
Loud out. “hit the ball hard” to right center. Sounded really nice off the bat.

Because Mike Olt doesn’t need to dive or make jump-throws to be awesome. He’s Mike Olt.

Dayton asked if we'd give him Arias too, but JD said he'd have to throw in Soria to make the deal work
Sounds like a decent trade.

Also, OT a bit, Gerrit Cole is fucking awesome.

Is anyone watching this game?
I can’t figure out why Cole threw a changeup at 3-2 with the bases loaded.
Great dive by the CFer, even though he came up just short.
Still, a changeup when he’s still hitting 96 in the 7th? Now 97.

I called him in the FIL.
But, I don’t mind sharing.

Fall Instructional League
One of the early reports on Perez from there was that in the short time betweeen when he had signed and when FIL started, he had already made it a priority to begin working on pitching low in the zone. I like that type of coachability; it’s even better that he has a great deal of physical talent to go along with a good attitude.

Attention: Short-A teams in the NWL....
stop putting 22+ year old’s in short A. It’s not even fair for a 24 y/o going against a 17 y/o.

wait, did they sign this guy two years ago?
yikes
Feliz says his greatest thrill was striking out Boston Red Sox DH David Ortiz, one of his heroes. Yet, when he called to tell his parents, his mother had a request: Strike out New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez, too.
"So when I did that," Feliz says, "I told my mom, 'There you go. There's your present. Don't ask me to strike anyone else out, OK?'
Had TJ shortly after signing.

He never had surgery
they just shut him down a couple of times I think and limited his innings – he pitched in instructs last year so it is no surprise that he is ok
national nightmare meme is really getting old

I can't remember.
But he’s only a few months young than Perez.

Per Scott Lucas
In his last nine starts covering 241 batters, Beavan has yielded one homer and five bases on balls. That is ridiculous.
This is exactly the type of stat that could lead teams to perceive Beavan as a top prospect. (This is also the kind of stat that should cause people who have been writing him off to quit it).
Little news, big news, no news:
The Rangers have released Plano East alum Wes Bankston from AA Frisco.
More bad injury news on the #Rangers pitching front. Eric Hurley had a third hand surgery. Not throwing for 6-8 weeks.
In addition to the bad news on the #Rangers Derek Holland, shoulder stiffness has shut down Brandon McCarthy.

No kidding
If they trade him, there should be riots. For anyone worried by his numbers, go look at John Danks minor league numbers when he was a year older in AA.
