Update: 

 

Las Vegas 3 - Salt Lake 2 (8th)

 

Rancho Cucamonga 3 - IE 66ers 2 (2nd)

 

Arkansas 8 - Tulsa 3 (Final)

 

Home Runs:
  Widlansky (1) ,   Grichuk (1) ,   Cron 2 (2) .

[Second Base]

Cron gives us two big flys.  So disappointed in him this season for only hitting .274 with 51 XBH in the hardest hitting environment in the country. 

[jshep]

Cherry picking stats is the heat.

[TEvans]

Cousins ties it up at 3 in the bottom of the 8th with an RBI single. Heading to the 9th in SL

[TEvans]

3 up 3 down in the 9th for Stange. Heid, Field, Long due up for the Bees in the bottom of the 9th

[TEvans]

MATT LONG WALKOFF HR!

[Second Base]

Yarbrough 3-3 tonight.  Things will get mighty interesting in a year when Lindsey, Green and Yarbrough will all be MLB ready and Kendrick has a year left on his contract. Gotta figure at least two of the four names will be dealt, with another making a position switch.

Yarbrough 3-3 tonight.  Things will get mighty interesting in a year when Lindsey, Green and Yarbrough will all be MLB ready and Kendrick has a year left on his contract. Gotta figure at least two of the four names will be dealt, with another making a position switch. 

I think Kendrick is elsewhere by Opening Day 2014.

[Second Base]

Hard to disagree with that. If teams are willing to pay the price of young pitching I'd make that trade.  I think Green's a solid bet to hit .270, Lindsey should be ready to roll as a lefty bat with some pop very soon and Yarbrough could definitely hit for average and some pop along with good D.  

[AngelsFaninGA]

We'll probably trade the two best players out of the four. 

[tomsred]

I think Kendrick is elsewhere by Opening Day 2014.

I think so too.  He'll be Dipoto'd for a pitcher.

[Chuck]

MATT LONG WALKOFF HR!

Awesome! I hope we see Matt Long soon.

[Second Base]

My guess, Kendrick is dealt to the Dodgers for Zach Lee.  Lindsey starts at 2B against righties, Green against lefties at 2B and against righties at 3B while Yarbrough goes to AA.  Lindsey proves his worth and takes over full time at 2B in 2015 and either Green or Yarbrough are dealt while the other assumes the role of backup at 2B, 3B and corner OF. 

[Chuck]

Way to go. All three minor league affiliates win tonight!!

[ELEVEN]
