A kid's cooking class, minor league sluggers and $1 hot dogs come to W
2009-08-03 03:34:00 Photograph used via creative commons license.Taking the whole family to a Cubs game can be a seriously pricey proposition. The tickets prices, transportation costs, and food really add up quickly -- which is why I think that Chicago-area families will be thrilled to hear about this great (and super affordable) opportunity to visit Wrigley Field.On Sunday, August 9th, Wrigley Field is hosting a minor league game between the Iowa Cubs and the Las Vegas 51's.

Minor League Report: May
2009-05-23 23:12:00 The Giants have struggled mightily to score runs over the last 10 days, and they've gone 1-8 over their last 9 to prove it. If you want to know why they've been struggling so bad, take a look at my last couple of posts, cause not much has changed. And since they're still sputtering and there isn't much new to report on, I figured now would be a good time to take our monthly look at what's happening in the minors.The Giants made a couple of organizational moves at the beginning of the month, promoting a few 2007 draftees that had been doing more than their fair share in San Jose to AA Connecticut. Those three guys; Brandon Crawford, Tim Alderson and Madison Bumgarner have hit the ground running in the great Northeast and have done as good or better there than they were doing in San Jose. Bumgarner has been especially impressive, as he's gone 3-0 over his first 3 starts in AA. During those 3 outings, MadBum has pitched 18 innings, allowing only 10 hits and 4 walks while striking...

2008 Minor League Review
2008-10-20 23:05:00 We've already taken an in depth look at what went on this season that lead the Giants to their 72-90 record, so I wanted to use this post to discuss some of the things that happened in the Giants' minor league system. This year, Giants fans got to know some of the young offensive talent (Travis Ishikawa, Pablo Sandoval, Nate Schierholtz, Connor Gillaspie) which hasn't really been the case over the last decade or so so. We also got a glimpse of some of the young relievers (Sergio Romo, Alex Hinshaw) who could be a part of the bullpen for the next decade. What we didn't get to see was some of the young arms that could allow the Giants to make Matt Cain or Jonathan Sanchez expendable.The talk of the Giants 2008 minor league season surrounded the organization's pitching depth. Madison Bumgarner and Tim Alderson were picked up early in the 2007 draft and both could be pitching for the Giants by early 2010, and in Alderson's case, maybe sooner. Bumgarner was un-hittable at times th...

Giants Minor League Report
2008-08-05 00:12:00 I didn't get a chance to touch much on the minors last month and with the Giants starting to commit to a full on youth movement, now is a good time to take a look at what some of the future Giants have been doing.Travis Ishikawa, a guy who's had expectations after a pretty big 2005 season in San Jose, hasn't really been heard of since then, until now. Ishikawa is quietly putting together his best season as a professional and has been on fire since being called up to Fresno. In 377 at-bats split between AA and AAA, the 24 year-old first basemen has 21 home runs and 86 RBI's while carrying a .292 average. However, since his arrival in Fresno, he has hit 13 bombs and driven in 38 runs in only 140 at-bats. Talk about a huge rebound from a horrible '07 season in which he hit .243 with only 16 home runs and 59 RBI's between High A, and AA ball. The only problem for Ishikawa, as with Nate Schieholtz, is that they have guys blocking them at the major league level. The Giants are commi...

A Minor Observation
2008-07-08 05:41:00 I took a little time during my vacation to blog surf some smaller blogs that are representative of the GOP base and found that almost all of them had negative things to say about Obama however none of them had anything positive to say about McCain. Admittedly my sample was small but if it is indeed indicative of a larger trend then McCain is in trouble. It would also explain why McCain is still running to the right while Obama seems to be moving to the center. McCain is in a tricky spot in that his courting of the right turns off the independents while his attempts to woo the center turns off the base. My feeling remains that unless Obama screws the pooch somehow McCain will lose. The only question to me is by what margin.His only chance, in my opinion, is to master Obama's technique of not being specific without appearing to be vague.

Minor Emergency Preparedness

The problem is that the thinking is kind of shallow. As an example CPR is good training if you can get the person to medical attention. The people that are 'saved' by CPR don't jump to their feet and live long happy lives, they are carried by ambulance to the ER. There isn't much value in have a giant first aid kit that you don't know how to use. It would be better to have a number of first aid kits full of stuff that you can actually operate. read more

Minor League Report
2008-06-04 21:57:00 In April, most the hype around the Giants farm system surrounded the Giants High A affiliate in San Jose. This month the spotlight has to be on Madison Bumgarner. The month that Bumgarner put together in low-A Augusta has to have Giants fans optimistic about the young lefty's future. Bumgarner followed up a mediocre April by going 3-0 in May with 34 strikeouts and 23 hits allowed in 29.1 innings pitched. He only allowed 2 earned runs in May which led to a 0.23 era as well. Now sitting at 5-2 with a cool 2.10 era, Bumgarner is starting to look worthy of the number 10 pick he was taken at last June. The Giants aren't going to rush Bumgarner, so even if he continues to dominate the way he has over the last 5 weeks, don't expect to see him make any advancements any time soon. As for the other 2007 top draftees, Nick Noonan has been the best at the plate hitting .275 with 3 home runs and 27 rbi. Wendall Fairley was the draft pick with the most offensive upside but the outfielder is s...

Witness at R. Kelly sex-tape trial tells of three-way sex with minor
2008-06-03 20:15:00 A key prosecution witness said Monday she had videotaped, three-way sex twice with pop singer R. Kelly and an underaged girl, at his trial on 14 charges of child pornography. Kelly, 41, and his alleged victim, who was 13 at the time, have denied being on a home video leaked to the Chicago Sun-Times and later on the Internet in 2002 that form the basis of the charges that could put the musician away for a maximum 15 years. Lisa Van Allen said Monday that after she and Kelly met in late 1997, they filmed each other with the alleged victim on two occasions in 1999 and 2000, although prosecutors stressed that neither tape was the recording shown the jury at the trial.

LA's Furcal may test sore back in minor leagues
2008-06-03 12:41:00 The Los Angeles Dodgers haven't seen much of Rafael Furcal since he went on the disabled list with lower-back soreness a month ago. So when Furcal showed up in the clubhouse Monday afternoon with a new haircut, Manager Joe Torre feigned surprise. "I'm sorry, but there are no visitors allowed," Torre joked.Furcal may soon be doing more than visiting. He resumed batting practice Sunday and was on the field in uniform during pregame drills Monday. Last season, Furcal started the schedule on the disabled list with a sprained left ankle then returned to the lineup before the ankle was fully healed and was never at full strength. As a result, Furcal said he's being more cautious this time."I'm guessing it's going to be a very methodical process here," Torre said.Furcal, originally resistant to the idea of a minor league rehab assignment, said Monday he thought it was a good idea but refused to guess when he might be ready.

The local minor-league team would also probably challenge my authority ever
2008-05-30 17:02:00 Here's the kind of person I imagined, when I was younger, I'd turn out to be:"a good guy who also happens to be quite good-looking. Plays baseball for a local minor-league team and volunteers at a youth center. He and his girlfriend don't have the sort of relationship that involves long, heartfelt discussions or candle-lit dinners. It's more the kind that involves sex and the occasional favor."Here's the kind of guy I turned out to be:"technically the boss, though judging from his ability to tell people what to do, sometimes it's hard to tell who's in charge. He's a natural born worrier whose workers drive him crazy and challenge his authority every other minute."Those descriptions are actually parts of character bios from USA Network's new original series In Plain Sight, a series about the U.S. Marshals who run the Witness Protection Program. It sounds fascinating -- an examination of what it's like to work with criminals and people on the run from the law with the help ...
