We have the pitchers again this week. The names remain the same
(with one exception), but next time we will have some numbers on the
2007 draftees. Meanwhile, the farm affiliates went 1-3 again last
night.
Thursday Boxscores and Highlights
Toledo 12 @ Syracuse 6 Zambrano 4.1IP, 5ER, 6H, 5W, 7K, League 0.2IP, 1H, 1W, Adams 2-5, HR, Barker 2-4, HR, BB

Lansing 8 @ Great Lakes 2 Ginley 6IP, 0ER, 4H, 0W, 6K, Snider 3-5, baserunner kill, picked off, Emanuele HR, Metropoulos 2 2B
Pitcher Summary
All statistics are as of Wednesday. Kyle Ginley had a great outing last night, and lowered his ERA to 6.07. Um. By request, we have added Seth Overbey to our list.
There are no great, or even very good, pitching prospects in the organization. Still, there are quite a few pitchers here who may surprise and contribute something to the big club at some point.
