Eventually, I think this will turn into an every few days sort of thing, but I am running through the games and here are some quick thoughts.
Norfolk:
-Looks like Alfredo Simon was pretty sharp, but may have had some control issues. It would not surprising to see him log a couple starts in the Majors this year. He spent 72 pitches over 3 innings, notching 3 ks, 1 walk, and 3 hits.
-Kam Mickolio needed 38 pitches to go 1.1 innings. That is awful and it appears he continues to have issues with his control. Disappointing.
-Bell and Snyder both went 3 for 4 with a double a piece.
-Montanez continues to hit AAA pitching going 2 for 5.
Bowie:
-Caleb Joesph is looking strong early on. He popped into the discussion in a few top ten prospect lists for the Orioles this past year. He hit two doubles and a single in four plate appearances.
-Chorye Spoone put in a pedestrian performance. This is basically his make or break year. Walking two and striking out two over four innings won't cut it.
-Wilfredo Perez continues to dominate by getting save and striking out three in one inning of work.
Delmarva:
-From the reports I heard, Hobgood was very uneven. Inconsistent release point, but his pitches did look good . . . just without the command want. He went 4 innings walking 5 and striking out 4. Not ideal to say the least. He did induce 4 groundballs to only 1 fly. I also heard that he was very agile in the field.
- Dalles hit a home run. He might be the only Delmarva hitter of note this year.

I really don't like those walks from Mickolio. How long do you think it takes for Lebron to become our top relief prospect?
I also think Garabez Rosa and Michael Ohlman are hitter of note at Delmarva.
Lebron is probably coming up early next season. He is more than just a fastball these days.
Rosa . . . not really high on him. I think his defense is average and his contact rate is too poor.
Ohlman . . . yeah, quite interested. Him making the majors will depend solely on his bat.
