Gray is hanging in

Radio said he gave up a 1st inning run and actually lowered his 1st inning ERA from 16.50 to 15.00!

Anyone want to guess which former Ranger has put up these numbers in AAA this year?

These guys are coming fast.
Going to have to make room for them somehow.
Going to be curious how it plays out.

Yes catching the last bit on the radio. Guess one ball hit hard was foul

Another solid pitching effort

The first thing they have to do is get promoted to Round Rock. Then they have to perform well there for awhile as well. How long do you think all of that will take?

I guess he has made the adjustment from A ball to AA. Some say that is the hardest adjustment to make in the minors.

I don’t think AAA is necessary IMO. A lot of top prospects skip AAA or play there very little. It seems like AA is slightly harder with a better talent of younger guys. It might be about even as far as hardness goes just older guys at AAA younger at AA, but more likely to face future all stars in AA and more likely to face roster fodder in AAA.

These guys look about ready…

I do understand MLB is way harder than any minor leagues and I am aware of the recent struggles of top prospects that recently got promoted around the league.
No need to rush them too fast I guess.. but it’s getting very close.

I haven't seen if anyone has answered this but it is Nomar Mazara for the Chihuahuas.
