Alvarez #3, d'Arnaud #13 in BA Top 20 Carolina League Prospects Pedro Alvarez and Chase d'Arnaud were the two Lynchburg Hillcat selections on Baseball America's Top 20 Carolina League prospects. With an eight-team league, landing multiple prospects on this list isn't as difficult as it is in some other leagues--the 2006 Hillcats had three players (Neil Walker, Brett Lillibridge and Brian Bixler), and...

As nice as it is to see a guy be rewarded for persistence, Garrett Jones should not be mistaken for a good player, and the last thing I'd want to see is a Tike-Redman-2003 situation where Jones gets off to a hot start, then gets way more playing time than he should for a year or so after that. John Russell today: "I'm getting excited about our lineup, to be honest with you, and that has a lot...

VIERA, Fla. - On the surface, it didn't look like a good outing by John Maine. He served up a pair of long home runs to Elijah Dukes and Brad Eldred in the Mets' 5-5 tie with the Nationals yesterday at Space Coast Stadium.

Of course, those kids didn’t realize that until after he’d signed hats and ticket stubs for half of them. “Are you Adam Dunn'” one asked eagerly. “Nah, I came in [...]

Brad Eldred may be the only viable candidate in a depleted farm system Brad Eldred is 27 and a mountain of a hitter. He is listed at 6 feet 5 inches and 275 pounds, and he's leading the Triple-A International League with 52 runs batted in—15 more than the heralded Jay Bruce had when Cincinnati promoted him a week ago.
