Good news. Seattle's 2nd round pick, Isaiah Campbell, right handed pitcher out of u of arkansas signed today. He is a control pitcher walking 20 and striking out 115 senior season.
If he makes it to the majors he will be the first player from Portugal since Frank Thompsn in 1875.

Sheffield with 8.0 ip, 8K. 2BB 1 ER. 2 H (both came in the 8th inning). No decision as the game tied 1-1 in the 9th.
I know a lot are down on him, but he's showing pretty dang good in AA the last 3 starts. Hopefully he can carry that back to AAA when they decide to promote him back to Tacoma.

Night and Day. I like day better. Can't just be the level of competition. Great to see he has snapped out of it. Literally every prospect is doing well right now. Just need to dump Gordon, Leake and Seager and the rebuild will be at all systems go.

So, Arkansas game kinda interesting. 1 out, runner on 3B. White up Intentional BB. Brings up DTW, another intentional BB to get to Kyle Lewis. He hits a single to the SS to win the game. Not sure the details, but kinda interesting they BB White and DTW (both were 2-4 today) to get to Lewis.

Kyle Lewis just singled in the winning run. Joey Gerber, just promoted from Modesto gets the win. Gerber was drafted in the 8th round in 2018 and is rapidly rising.

I stood right next to Gerber behind a backstop on one of the practice fields in Peoria in March. Dudes tall.

Most athletic height/ weights are averages. Plus some guys keep growing well into their 20's....so a 6'4 listing could be pushing 6'6
