Works the count before dribbles out to end game						Really good bat speed. Single and line out all hit HARD. Watch this guy he has special talents									Ultra patient.

Confidence restored and thus a HR in 3rd	10/13 - then spanks ANOTHER ONE to retie the game in the 7th. WOWOWOWOW. But not done he turns in a 4-6-3-6 DP after the ball hits runner and he runs it down with amazing throw to 2b for out
Mesa Victor	of	L	01/09/2001	Miam	Mesa	Sleeper. Son of Victor and bro of Victor Victor.				Good swing path, looks polished. Picked on DBSmith fastball and crushed it for 3 run HR								Takes off speeds for strikes to end the 1st. He seems to be always FB hunting	Rips a clean single to RF.

Rumfield TJ	if	L	01/05/2000	NYY	Mesa					Tall and strong. Dumps one off the trademark into CF for a 2 RBI single and lines another RBI single. Strength makes that possible. But he can be fooled on offspeed									Sub in 7th vs 100 MPH gas by Uribe. Actually pulls a foul off him. I like his bat

Hassell Robert	of	L	01/08/2001	Wash	Peoria	Watch. He tore up minors before Wash (Soto trade). Top 10 talent	FG41 MLB22 MLBof4	He showed easy bat speed on flyout the other way. Nice rip in 9th for sac fly - he looks legit

He has contact skills												Lines a single to LF in 1st		Easily fooled by breaking stuff. Draws walk in 5th. Hit it hard right at 2b to end the 7th. Twice dives OVER groundersto his right
Kokx Connor	of	R	01/02/2000	Clev	Peoria			nothing special	Good eye on walk vs Chamberlain and Starr. Looks like a util OF			Loops a defensively caused triple to leadoff game. He is adept at going the other way. Then drove it to LC for a double in 2nd and LF for a single in 7th. Good day for Kokx								Show some pop again with flyout to over 400 ft in CF.
Lindsly Brady	c	L	01/03/1998	Wash	Peoria				Nothing going in K in 2nd. Double down line in 8th but bat isnt special

Perez Robert	1b	R	01/06/2000	Sea	Peoria			Ugly error on dropped throw opens big innning. But wins the game with 3 run HR in 9th	He put a nice swing on a Starr fastball and drove it to CF. His bat is potent if he can harness it			Whiffs on being fooled in 1st. He's the double double guy and does zip.										Lined one off pitcher in 4th. He has a pretty good swing and bat speed (single in 8th) but will it be enough to carve out a long MLB career?
Ritter Luke	1b	R	01/02/1997	NYM	Peoria			Made a nice catch leaning well into dugout. Nothing stood out at bat												He hit it solid in 5th right at someone (2b). Not impressive		His leg speed was questionable after getting DP turned on him in 3rd. Ugly key whiff in 7th and 9th to end game

Britton Zach	of	L	01/09/1998	Tor	SaltRiver								Laces a nice double to RC legging it out from the gap. Scores the go ahead run in 7th after double				ripped into try rc gap drove home 2.

Lavigne Grant	1b	L	01/08/1999	Colo	SaltRiver								Nice swing to take the ball the other way today. But you usually want your 1b to bomb away and he prefers contact
Lawler Jordan	if	R	01/07/2002	Ariz	SaltRiver	Watch. AA at age 20 in 2022. Top SS	FG45 MLB12 MLBss3						He fails in imress. He doesn’t look like a top 20 type prospect to me				looks bleh again. Botches a sure DP grounder and gets no outs in 4th in the 6th it gets worse as his foot misses the bag on a chopper to 2b getting no one out instead of a dp.	Cont 10/12 - That play allows go ahead run to score. Geez he is bad then yells at the ump whose call was obviously right he looks like he doesn’t care			Had a big double off Priester. He looked the part of big time prospect more tonight than in any game so far even on outs and with glove		Strikes out swinging on missed H&R. Bobbles more very playable grounders.

Pages Pedro	c	R	01/09/1998	StL	SaltRiver																		Pronounced Pay Hass. Not always set to swing & seems to prefer extr short cuts. Robbed by Castillo in 8th
Veen Zac	of	L	01/12/2001	Colo	SaltRiver	Taken 1 pick behind Hassell Veen had 50 steals in AA with 177 BA. So Benefit!	FG64 MLB23 MLBof5										walked stole 2b 3b and scored on wild throw to 3rd. Flies to wall in RF in 3rd. Drops a single into LF to get the tally going in 6th. Then IF hit in 8th was crucial				Impressive double off the wall against Priester leads to a 4 run rally.

Steals 2b Dude is a hitter, runner, fielder, all around star to be	Beats out IF single in 1st, steals 2nd and 3rd and scores.

Singles again in 9th but stranded	10/19 cont - He faces Uribe and his 100 MPH FB in 7th with 2 ont and long swing doesn’t work. Yes I would prefer a shorter swin from him but he has bat speed. Batting 459.
Walker Jordan	if	R	01/05/2002	StL	SaltRiver	Watch. Top ranked AFL player with 80 power	FG6 MLB6 MLB3b1			Wow. His talent drips from big frame, strong, long strides and super quick bat. Legs out a hit on routine grounder in 1st. Boots a ball in 3rd but shows off arm from RF that is WOW.	cont 10/5 -Good walk in 3rd and vs Gaston in 7th. Long strides gives him a SB (foul ball shoot). Built like Judge more athletic. He rips another hit - man among boys		His first AB he ripped Priester to the track with about 75% effort. Same effort is a long 2 run HR in 4th. This guy is the next big thing. Period.				another ripped single then nice job to whiff him in 4th. He ram hard to avoid double play in 6th and bad call made him upset. He cares and tries on 0-7 team.	Then drives on the lead changing run in 8th with clean single to CF. This guy is the best prospect in AFL since Buxton and he looks better than Byron to me			He didn’t look great tonight. Ugly AB vs Selby in 7th
Winn Masyn	if	R	01/03/2002	StL	SaltRiver		FG90 MLB 54
Workman Gage	if	S	01/10/1999	Detr	SaltRiver					He looks like an ahtlete for sure. Late bat in 1st and 3rd. Not ready			Not impressed										Still swinging late. But gets one to the wall in RF in 4th but has key K in 9th
Abreu Wilyer	of	L	01/06/1999	Bost	Scottsdale						Lacks elite bat speed for 1b. Lines to RF in 7th				Not impressed.

Tolhurst Anders	sp2	R	01/09/1999	Tor	SaltRiver					His chg is electric moving. Unfortunately his hard stuff has no control today. 3 walks in 1st and gone only getting 1 out							Throws hard excellent velo and change. Sleeper to me I like him.

Watson Troy		R		Tor	SaltRiver								He was bombed to oblivion in the 8th to take the loss

Dula Hunter		R	01/03/1999	SF	Scottsdale															in for 5th - He gives up hard contact but tgets outs. Nothing special about his stuff
Hoffman Nolan		R	01/08/1997	Balt	Scottsdale										Sidearmer in for 6th/7th. He has 2 nice offerings and good command. But he gets burnt once predicted by Surprise
Kochanowicz Jack	sp	R	01/12/2000	LAA	Scottsdale										Came in for injury in 4th with 2 on and worked 5th.					starter with 5-0 lead before first pitch and he showed good command usually. Not great stuff but he knows how to pitch at age 22

VanScoyoc Connor	sp	R	01/11/1999	LAA	Scottsdale									Walks 1st guy on 4 pitches andsecond one on 5. No one hit him hard but the trouble got him for 2 in 1st despite DP.	10/8 cont. Then in 2snd gives up 4 solid rips and 2 more runs. He is up and not fooling anyone
Ward Thad		R	01/01/1997	Bost	Scottsdale	Sleeper. TJ 2021. 2.28 ERA AA in 22 return									Wild high in 1st. Settles down and looks command strong. When he misses they are really close and his stuff moves vertical, horizontally	10/10 cont - But he doesn’t have overwhelming stuff or velo so like a lot of command first pitchers he can give up big hits - Wagner in 3rd tonite	He nibbles when in trouble not trusting his stuff in 3rd. And h goes to too many fastballs in stress too. That got him for 2 RA in 3rd. Left with arm trouble in 4th

Winans Allan		R	01/08/1995	Atl	Scottsdale						He has excellent command tonight						Good command and changes speed with effect. Hard stuff is strong and well commanded. But his hard stuff crushed in 3rd as he seemed to go to it exclusively. He allows 4 runs
Woods William		R	01/12/1998	Atl	Scottsdale						In for the 7th, Great command. His stuff gets out without impressing						looks pretty good but gives up a run on bad defense in 7th					He is in for 6th and getting rocked hard by the only 2 good hitters he faced. Will he keep 40 man spot? Seems yes as he mows them down.
Zeferjahn Ryan		R	01/02/1998	Bost	Scottsdale									Pitching in 4th. Lateral movement is pretty good today. He's a RP with hard stuff and a breaker			does a nice job again. He has talent

Chamberlain Christian		L	01/07/1999	KC	Surprise				Velo is good but command is spotty			Came in with 2 out in 2nd, Short with several offspeeds and good commandgets K's too.

Cruz Omar		L	01/01/1999	Pitts	Surprise
DiPoto Jonah		R	01/09/1996	KC	Surprise				Cant find the zone. Doesn’t seem to be a new problem given coaching reaction. Allows						Came in for Rocker in 3rd and went 123. His FB is OK but he struggles to command off speed
Gordon Colton	sp	L	01/12/1998	Hous	Surprise							LHSP Hes able to change locations and speed well to survive without a lot of Movement.	Cont 10/7 -Results are good until Surprise got him for 3 runs in 2nd as he left pitches up. Then called for back o back balks
Kouba Rhett		R	01/09/1999	Hous	Surprise
Lehman Taylor		L	01/12/1995	Phila	Surprise										On in 7th. Tall and lanky and hard thrower as a LHP (K's). Polished. Pitched 4 levels in 22 but he is already 26
Morales Francsico		R	01/10/1999	Phila	Surprise							enter for 5th. Two K on fooling curves				Enters with a 1 run lead in 9th and dispatches Mesa on 4 batters (2K and a line out to deep CF around a walk) for the save
Pennington Walter		L	01/04/1998	KC	Surprise				Pitched 9th and looked very sharp			Closer for 7th today. He has sinking stuff some of it hard. Everything is down and singles allowed once they know				On in 8th again today. He can pitch and does a nice job in 8th.
Priester Quinn		R	01/09/2000	Pitts	Surprise		FG93 MLB44 MLBrh9		In addition to talent he is great with kids giving warmup balls away				He just went through 7 really good hitters in 2 innings like a knife through butter. Extreme command and good stuff								He is hit today with 4 runs in 4 IP. A tribute to Lawler and Veen who had back to back doubles off him leading to the 4 run inning.	10/15 cont - His velo, location, stuff and pitch plan still solid and he should be a great MLB pitcher soon
Robert Daniel		R	01/08/1994	Tex	Surprise				Pitched the 5th. Solid has decent velo. Not enough movement he got dinged. Went 6th too and continued to give up hard contact 3 runs total
Rocker Kumar		R	01/11/1999	Tex	Surprise	Watch. Pro debut after 2 yrs in draft. Benefit. For stuff and polish			Pro debut was a 123 1st inning. His command was way off and his] velo wasn’t great. Gone after 1 inning leaving bases jammed						His command is better than last time but still not there. Misses in the zone a lot too and his hard stuff was often ripped foul.	10/10 continued. He was getting grounders in the 2nd from everyone. Rounding into form
Ruppenthal Matt		R	01/10/1995	Hous	Surprise											On in 5th. Quick worker but walks leadoff man another before walking in a run. And he ignores runners for 2 SB
Schulze Brett		R	01/11/1997	Phila	Surprise										Drops in curve with ease. He looks polished not overwhelming but he makes the Scottsdale hitters look bad. Impressed
Selby Colin		R	01/10/1997	Pitts	Surprise																Gives up a couple of rockets in 7th. Makes Walker look terrible with breaking stuff
Sikkema TJ	sp	L	01/07/1998	KC	Surprise											He is a sleeper. Pitches good pace. Good hard stuff, Picks off Auer. 6 straight strikes in 1st	10/11 cont -WOW He then throws 6 straight balls to start the 2nd. Sigh. Recovers nicely. Dominates from there then allowed double to Auer	He was up and down obvously. Up big time in 1223 4th inning. This guy has potential - I still think he is a good sleepr
Sprinkle Jonathan		R	01/07/1998	Hous	Surprise										Came on in 4th/5th and got ripped upon against guy who have shown nothing. Hit me FB in middle of zone.	10/10 continued - Coaches were telling him about issues with him in stretch not coming fully around with head. Next IP was much better

Thomas Tohnaj		R	01/06/1999	Pitts	Surprise
Wolfram Grant		L	01/12/1996	Tex	Surprise				He enters for Kumar in 2nd. Hitting 95 with ease.6 up and 6 down he looks strong				Pitches in relief today and impresses again. But Britton gets him for a double with the run scoring on an error
Game Notes								Three runs from wild RP Smith Of Peoria is the only runs of the game before a 5 run 9th innings allowed by even wilder Harris of Glendale gave Peoria a 5-3 win over Glendale	Peoria is off to 2-0 start with 2 road wins after the pitching dominated for 7 shutout innings in 6-0 lead and a 6-4 win over Surprise. But story tonight was the pro debut of 2 time 1st round pick Kumar Rocker	A marquee matchup with no less than TEN must see prospects in action. A challnged K call in 1st was new. But not as much as combined 8 runs in 1st inning. Mesa has 11 by 4th led by HR by Mesa, Hardman and Butler. Win 18-8 after 7 over SRR overcoming 5 RBI, 2 HR from Barger. For me No mas 7 only	Sloppy game with 6 combined errors that played into several of the runs including the go ahead in bottom of the 6th. The day after getting 18 runs with a loaded lineup vs Salt River, the Mesa side only gets 4 hits today and falls to Scottsdale 5-2	Surprise used speed, baserunning and bad defense to nbild a 6-1 lead in 2nd. Peoria gets it back to 6-5 quickly but could not socre the tying run and Surpise beat Peoria 6-5	Well pitched by SP Wentz (Detr) and Priester 9Pitt). Jodan Walker unloaded for a 2 run HR in the game but Surprise fought back to tie it 2-2. After a double put the Rafters into the lead in 7th, a huge 2 RBI double one hop the CF wall and gives Surprise the lead they extended to a 6-3 win	The	Kumar Rocker gets start #2 tonight and is better. Surpise is now 7-1 on the season with the 7-1 win tonight in Scottsdale. They are the most engaged in the game team players and coaches with a lively bench. They are fundamentals, hustle, and have a lot of really good players. They could be the team to beat in 2022	Surprise didn’t dominat ewith the bats but they got just enough o take a 3-2 lead into the 9th led by Wagner and Rave.	Salt River was 0-8 coming into this one. Walker’s big hit in 8th set them up with 7-5 lead but calvo vs Kavadas is final batter battle won by Calvo of Salt River. It was not a pretty game with 6 combined errors and that doesn’t mention the mental ones. But salt river is just relieved to win. Period.	Glendale knocks out Ayala of TB with a 5 run 1st including grannie for Hinds. But the Mesa side comes back to forge a 5-5 tie by the 5th led by HR from Mervis, Gelof and Murray. Mervis then spanked a 2 run HR for his 2nd in game in 7th and saved the game with his glove in the 6th and 8th. It was Mervis day with Mesa winning 9=7	First of 3 in Chase today featured excellent pitching Most notably Fall of Mesa and Uribe of Glendale. No runners even reach 3b with 3 DP and 2 CS wiping out any threats. Until 7th when Noelvi Marte rips a 2 on single but McLain nailed at home by Guldberg. Manfred man scores on DP in top 7th and excellent catch in RF prevents it from more. Manfred man scores for Glendale too so the final is 1-1 in 8 innings	Quite a start to this one with Scottsdale getting 5 in top of 1st without an extra base hit but lots of hard contact off Cate. An added 3 in 4th to bust out to an 8-1 lead. From there the Scorpions held off Glendale	Wentz (Salt River) and Priester (Surprise) was the pitching matchup and it was a great one on paper - maybe the best in Az. Wentz did not disappoint and Priester pitched well except for one inning when Zeen and Lawler kicked off a 4 run rally with back to back doubles. Salt River hangs on for a 4-1 win behind another Wentz domination for 5 IP in a win vs Surprise	This was a brilliant day for the best hitters on both teams to shine. For Scottsdale it was an early burst to a 6-1 lead led by Conley, Kjerstad and Yorke who went a combined 9 for 15 with all 6 RBI. Peoria rallied back for 4 runs led by Ornelas, Rodriguez and Merrill but never caught up as 4 strong innings by Denoyer and a strong 9th by Webb gave Scottsdale a 6-4 win.	Star bats early as Veen, Britton and Julien delivered in a 2-2 game. Good pitching especially by Tolhurst and the Glendale pen. In the 7th, one of the best AB of the year was a 9 pitch war between soon to be closer Uribe and the unstoppable Britton whose 2 RBI single. But in the 8th, it was worse pitching than the batting was good as the awful Clavo gives up 3. SRR falls 5-4 to Glendale
