They want you to complain.

Also, Bronson went to high school just minutes from the stadium... So they were probably just throwing him a bone.

Rosenbaum would have been throwing on short rest is another viable reason.

Did I miss Taylor Jordan getting hurt?  He hasn't started in a while.

Jeff Kobernus 3-3 tonight with 2HR's 3RBI night brings his average up to .282 for the P-NATS, Destin Hood and Steven Souza with Homeruns.

Souza looks like he has potential.  He's a big guy with a good bat.

Souza's always had the physical tools, but has been very streaky. Maybe he puts it all together, but Im not counting on it. The athleticism, speed, and power are impressive but he has no position and consistently hits in the .230's. Not going to get caught up on him developing.

Makes no sense. Freitas has done really well at a higher level.

Freitas, Manno and Rosenbaum are all way overdue promotions. Oh well.

I wonder if they wanted to keep Freitas with the kids at Hagerstown. He knows the pitchers, especially Ray/Cole, and maybe they didn't want to disrupt that bond in the middle of the year.

how is freitas glove?  sounds like he calls a good game and he obviously has tremendous pop. 

he should be in potomac right now.  i think he makes norris expendable, imo.

His numbers are solid, but Norris played better at the same level, at a younger age. Freitas is looking good, but I wouldn't say his presence should affect Norris' future here.

Can't really speak to his defensive ability, but he's been better offensively and defensively than Nieto, so there has to be a reason why they want him to remain in Hagerstown.

I'm glad Nieto is finally playing well though I wonder if maybe they feel Nieto has better tools to project better? He was a considerably higher ranked kid at draft time(even though that means nothing now that they are playing pro ball), so they want to challenge him?

Either way, we appear to have an excellent catxhing situation throughout the system.

Leonard Davis signed out of the New Jersey Jackals - reports to Harrisburg.

Kerr reports:  Infielder Sean Nicol and left-hander Evan Bronson were sent to Single-A Potomac. Right-hander Erik Davis was promoted back to Harrisburg from Potomac.

As I said... they were throwing Bronson a bone.

He actually didn't look half bad, to tell you the truth.

FWIW, Antonelli has been in LF for at least the last few games at Syracuse.
