2004 Rookie Draft (Cont'd) - David Wright

High Class A St. Lucie Mets third baseman David Wright figures to be selected high in the upcoming 2004 MSL draft. Born in Norfolk, VA on 12/20/82, Wright hit .270 with 15 homeruns and 75 RBI's for St. Lucie in 2003 and was named a Florida State League all-star. Wright was the 38th overall pick in the 2001 high school draft. He also signed a national letter of intent to play in college for Georgia Tech, but signed to play minor league ball instead.

2004 Rookie Draft - Matt Holliday

As our 2003 season starts to wind down, some teams are already looking forward to next season's draft. One of the top tier rookies that will be drafted very early next year is outfielder Matt Holliday. Born 1/15/80 in Stillwater, OK, Holliday was right at home playing for the 2003 AA Tulsa Drillers. Matt spent his second straight year at Double-A where he quietly enjoyed a solid season...although he hit just .253, Matt led Tulsa with 72 RBI...he tied for the team lead with 28 doubles and his career-best 132 hits trailed only Cory Sullivan (167) on the squad...also set personal highs in games (135), extra-base hits (45) and total bases (206)...Tulsa's everyday leftfielder, Holliday ranked T2nd in the Texas League with 15 outfield assists.....

JIM THOME (CLA) -- AL Batter of the Block
Cleveland firstbaseman Jim Thome led the AL in numerous categories this block. He hit 11 home runs, 3 triples, batted in 31 and scored 19 times. He batted .333 with an OBP of .432. His slugging of .852 was one of the best for a block this season.

JIM EDMONDS (SLN) -- NL Batter of the Block
St. Louis outfielder Jim Edmonds belted 12 home runs this block along with driving in 29 runners. He reached base at a .422 clip and slugged .819

KELVIM ESCOBAR (TOA) -- AL Pitcher of the Block

WEB GEMS- Top 5th: Charles Johnson blocked the plate, saving a run!

 

One run was the difference at Enron Field as the Toronto club defeated the

Pittsburgh Pirates in 10 innings 3 to 2.

 

The score was tied at 1 after nine.  Toronto was victorious in the 10th

inning.  Charles Johnson began things off when he smashed a bases-empty

'big-fly' (his 13th of the season).  After an out was recorded, Brian Roberts

came to the plate and banged out a single.  Miguel Cabrera then stroked a

single.  Frank Thomas struck out, unable to help the rally.  Vernon Wells

stepped into the box and hit a single resulting in an exciting win for

Toronto and a raucous post-game celebration by the home town fans.  Both

teams ended up with 11 on the night.  

 

Danny Graves(3-3) went 2 innings allowing 1 run for the victory. Danys

Baez(1-1) took the loss in relief.  He pitched 1 and 1/3 innings allowing 4

hits and no walks.

Chicago (AP) - The White Sox, struggling through a rough 2003 season, decided to part ways with
two popular players and build for the future.

In separate deals, Chicago sent catcher A. J. Pierzynski to Arizona for a pair of draft picks. The fiery catcher is currently hitting .352 in 58 games played. Last season, A.J., hit .307 with 6 HR's and 56 RBI's in 126 games while playing for the Sox.


Then, righty reliver David Weathers was sent to Philadelphia in exchange for Scott Hatteberg. Draft picks were also traded. Weathers has a 1-4 mark with a 5.34 ERA this season. David was 4-1 with a 4.60 ERA in 76 innings pitched last season for Chicago.

BARRY BONDS (SFN) -- AL Batter of the Block
San Francisco outfielder Barry Bonds led the AL in Home Runs (9) and RBIs (30) in block 4. He also reached base at a .461 clip and a slugging percentage of .808.

Wells and Blue Jays Making Some Noise

Toronto (AP) - Blue Jays centerfielder Vernon Wells has been having a dramatic impact on the upstart Toronto Blue Jays. With a record of 40-122 just a season ago, the Toronto Blue Jays are no longer an easy opponent. One of the big reasons has been the early outstanding play of their star - Vernon Wells.


Vernon Wells leads the league in homers (23), leads the league in RBI's (60), and is third in the league in batting average (.356). Wells is also tied for 7th in the league in runs scored (42). An amazing start for the 24 year old youngster. . . .

twins to make wild card run

Twins will turn to future for success now

After another rant by manager bob petersen management led my gm frank viola has decided the future is now for Minnesota.Two moves that to be made are bringing up phenom johan santana and adding josh beckett to rotation permanently.Viola has decided a run at a wild card would be send the right message to fans and his young team alike.With the off season additions of Carlos Lee and Hadeki Matsui the offense has improved and the young arms should add a shot in the arm the twins need.viola says he has giving the manager the tools now lets see if he knows how to build? sounds like manager petersen better get results stay tuned.....

Maddux Dealt to Phillies

"Success in the regular season is great, but winning in the playoffs is what counts." That may have been the attitude and thoughts of the Atlanta Braves' front office after trading popular pitcher Greg Maddux and their round 6 pick to the Phillies for pitcher Brett Tomko, infielder Tony Womack and their first round draft pick.


Maddux compiled a brilliant 48-29 record with an overall 3.69 ERA these past three seasons with the Braves. The Braves made the playoffs two of the past three seasons, including nabbing the #1 seed in last year's playoffs.

However, Maddux post season stats (1-3, 5.09 ERA in six starts) were much different and may have contributed toward moving the righthander to another club. . . .

separated the combatants at game's end.  The Minnesota Twins ended a long

winless drought and won by the slimmest of margins, 4 to 3.

 

Both teams were tied at 3 runs apiece after nine innings.  Finally, Minnesota

pulled the game out in the 11th inning.  Ichiro Suzuki delivered a solo blast

(his 4th of the season) giving Minnesota the win much to the delight of the

home town crowd.  Minnesota had only 4 hits for the game.  

 

Latroy Hawkins(3-1) went 1/3 of an inning allowing no runs for the victory.

Leo Estrella(0-1) ended up with the loss in relief.  He surrendered 1 hit and

1 walk in 2 innings.

Giants Win Wild 18-Inning Game Over Angels

Coco Crisp connected with a 'big fly' and had 2 RBI as the San Francisco
Giants beat the Anaheim Angels in 18 innings by a score of 9 to 6.
 
Both teams were tied at 5 runs apiece after nine innings.  Finally, San
Francisco pulled the game out in the 18th inning.  After an out was recorded,
Barry Bonds began the rally when he lined a base-hit.  Juan Pierre stepped
into the batter's box and he laced a base-knock.  Julio Lugo then would
ground out bringing in a run.  Crisp was up next and he smashed a two-run
homer (his 1st of the season).  San Francisco finished with 18 hits in the
victory.  
 
Felix Rodriguez(2-1) got the win allowing 1 run in 3 innings. Rodriguez was
helped out by Rod Beck who recorded his 6th save.  Steve Reed(0-1) was
charged with the loss in relief.
