Random Thoughts and Notes

Random Notes:
Rochester and Boise share the lead in the AL North. They also share the best record in baseball at this point. The last thing that is amazing about those two teams are the 39-10 ROAD records they both have earned so far. New York, Tampa and Seattle lead the other divisions. If the season ended today Detroit would also be in the playoffs as the 6 see and third team from the tough AL North.

The biggest surprise has to be the Boise team playing as well as they are. Tampa Bay leads its division with a current record of 47-49. Pittsburgh was expecting better than they are getting so far.

Toronto, Trenton, Florida, and Tacoma lead the respective divisions with the current WC leaders are Philadelphia and Scranton from the tough NL East.

Tacoma is killing with its pitching, with a 3.20 ERA, far ahead of anyone else, almost a half a run per game! Tampa Bay leads the league in strikeouts led by Jamie Conways 124.

Boise leads the ML in Avg and OBP, while Milwaukee leads in SLG and OPS. Detroit has stolen an incredible 181 bases, but they have been caught 55 times. Toronto has 186 HR’s and leads the swing for the fences club, they have also scored the most runs.

Seattle is playing excellent defense with just 31 errors. Achilles Rivera and Jeff MacDougal both have sub 2.00 ERA’s, and have pitched strongly. Vince Murphy has 15 wins and will be given serious Cy Young Consideration. Sun Sakamoto has 150 SO’s and leads the league.

Al Chavez is the league batting leader at .358, Victor Guillen has a great SLG pct of .626, hitting 30 home runs, and knocking in 84 runs. Brad Barker has the longest hitting streak of the year with 30 games straight with a hit.

Just some thoughts at this point! Hopefully I will get more time to write more!
