Rookie Impact on the league.......

Some of the exploits of the draftees at their new teams........

Donatello Waner has played in three games with the Oklahoma City Hi-A franchise where he's batting .231 with 0 HR and 4 RBI.

Jaime Roberts gave the Monterrey fans something to hope for when he pitched 5.0 innings and gave up 1 ER with 3 SO. Desert Dawgs GM Reigny was quoted as saying "If he can continue his learning and give us a few more quality starts we might even call him up to the big show for our Sept. drive"

Jerome Sikorski brings a 1-0 4.50 ERA record to this report after tossing an 8.0 inning 4 ER performance. Mr. Sikorski was warmly greeted in his win by 3 dingers given up.

Candy Paronto has appeared in three games for the Lo-A Honolulu team and he's discovering that wooden bats are way different than the aluminum. Without saying he's struggling (he's already dialed 9 once with 3 RBI) he's hitting .167

Who's your daddy......

(Paging Pedro Martinez.... Pedro Martinez..... Mr. Martinez please bring your midget and report to the Toronto franchise......)

Toronto (41-18) meeting Syracuse (49-10). Two franchises that have been the gems of their leagues. Two franchises built like the powerhouse Yankees, modeled after the Oakland/LA/Oakland Raiders "Just Win, Baby" theory. A meeting of epic proportions.....

aw hell..... Syracuse bent Toronto over and slapped their ass like a cheap porn stud doing the 18 yr old wannabe starlet.

Game 1. Syracuse 12 Toronto 0
Junior Malone ('member him, the probable 20 game winner) 2 hit shutout

Game 2 Syracuse 11 Toronto 2
Davey Lee driving in three runs.

Game 3 Syracuse20 Toronto 4
Bruce Lincoln dialing 9 and driving in 7 runs.

Syracuse 43 runs to Toronto scoring 6.

what else can I report..... (goes to find a towel to wipe off after the money shot)
