Naquin starts the rally against the Rangers closer last night and scores the winning run. He was only 1-4, but no Ks against Darvish which I see as a positive.

As a lifelong Rangers fan, I Whooped last night when Tyler hit that single through the gap to right field. My son gave me a dirty look. I told him, Rangers win or not, I will always cheer for an Ag first and foremost!!!

Once again Tyler plays a key role in a comeback against the Rangers. He's playing a L/R platoon role in CF but came in tonight after Hamels left the game. He got a single against Dyson and scored the tying run in a 9-6 Indians victory (he was on 3rd when Lindor hit a slam).

A lot of the Aggies just received their assignments to start the MiLB season with most receiving a promotion. Sadly, Cole Lankford was just released by the Cardinals.

Wacha (1-0) wins his first start of the season vs. the Reds. Pitched 6 innings. Gave up just 3 hits and 1 run

And had a single and an RBI!

Also, after Naquin's 2-3 night last night, he's hitting .444 on the season.

Really wish he had stayed for his senior season. That 2015 lineup would have been even scarier with him at 1st base

Cliff Pennington with a shot off the wall to complete a 7 run 9th inning comeback for the Angels. Trailing 9-3 in the bottom of the 9th the Angels send 11 men to the plate. Cliff actually got two ABs in the inning. He walked and scored, and then walked it off to end the game.

Penny played when I was a student. He'll always have a special place in my heart. We used to see him at Taco Cabana after games with his family.

Not sure who my favorite was of that era. Shindewolf was fun, Beerer had the best walkup, and a hell of a gun from right before he came in to close. But Ruggianno's heroics in Houston probably push him over the top.

(I know I butchered all the spellings.)

Those are some pretty good arms.

I'll always remember the 2014 Rice regional grand slam though. If that hadn't happened, then the Stubblefield CG over t.u. doesn't happen either.

A couple of rough days at the plate drops Tyler to .234 on the season. 0-4 with 3Ks today.

Minter placed on the 7-day DL for the High A Florida Fire Frogs.

Where is Moss? His MILB bio shows Florida Fire Frogs, but their roster does not list him and he has no 2017 stats. Extended spring training?
Aggie1205

I was wondering the same thing about Moss. There was an interview of him and Minter together is early April but not showing on any rosters.

Alex Wilson with a perfect inning today to collect a Hold. 2K's.

Pennington went 1-3 today. Hitting .286 on the year.

Stripling pitched 2.1 inning today with 3 k's. He has a 1.04 ERA so far. 8.2 innings.

Stripling may find himself back in the rotation. Their 4th and 5th starters aren't doing too well.
Sean98

He may, but I almost wonder if, given his success in the role, they don't prefer him as an any-day long reliever. Given the way about 60% of their high salary rotation gets blisters it may be better to have him in the role he filled yesterday.

Logan Taylor is with the Advanced A Modesto Nuts and is playing 3B. Hitting pretty well.

Does anyone know where Boomer White is this year? I looked on MiLB and all it has is info from last year.
UncleDave
How long do you want to ignore this user?
My guess is that Boomer will return to the short-season rookie ball team when they begin in June.
The Tri-City Dust Devil roster is actually updated. They have a 16 year old pitcher listed who was signed in October.
