<< Let's hear from more of you. Who's the prospect on your AA club that
the parent team isn't giving enough credit to? Who has great seats to
share. Who's got the best ballpark to visit this season, and what can
you say to back it up? >>
OK!! Well...the prospect on the Marlins team in my opinion is Blaine Neal,
who plays for the Kane County Cougars in Illinois. (Long season A ball for
the Florida Marlins) He came out of no where (a.k.a. Utica) lol, and started
pitching in Spring Training after surgery on his arm. He was moved up to Kane
County (about a month into the season) from extended spring this year, and
has been there ever since. When he was here last year he was our first
baseman, and didn't really stand out, but now he's got an 0.00 ERA and is
currently 1-0 as a relief pitcher. I think he's got real potential ....enough
blabbing on that :) :) Seeing he's in A ball not AA lol but look forward to
him being in AA quick.
Portland is our AA stadium, and it's great. Try the Sea Dog Biscuits when
you're there. :d Those are enough to get me to come back and visit ANYDAY!
I write for the "Dog Watch" a Marlins Minor League Affiliate newsletter, and
that's how I got myself involved in all these mailling lists, and I love em!
Keep the news coming, and "go fish!"
