After a rough return from his suspension, Jordan Schafer has heated up. He's hitting .410 with 5 homeruns over his last 10 games.

Kris Negron - A+ Lancaster - 5 for 5, 2 HR, 3B, 5 RBI

Chin Lung Hu - two 3 for 4 games in a row. Seems to 0-fer every other game, but is batting well over .320 in the last 2 weeks. No BBs though.

Manager Dave Trembley confirmed Saturday that the Orioles will not promote top prospect Matt Wieters when rosters expand on September 1.
Wieters is currently catching for Double-A Bowie and has posted a line of .352/.449/.603. He also has 10 home runs and 46 RBI in just 179 at-bats. The 22-year-old should be given a legitimate shot at making the Orioles during spring training next year.

Good to hear..



...just some random thoughts...

Price sure hasn't looked all that good in his first few starts of AAA.
Holland had another solid outing in AA....his stock is rising pretty quick.
Bumgarner is now in my top 3 SP Prospects.

Colby Rasmus STl OF for AAA memphis started a rehab assignment this weekend for Rookie A ball. Went 0-1 in his first appearance but his next start he went 3-4 with a homerun. should be interesting to see how fast he can come back and if he'll be called up in september...hopefully he will be. the guy has been compared to guys like grady sizemore and corey hart...a 30-30 guy.

He's DHing for Myrtle Beach tonight. I guess the Braves just wanted him to get some extra at bats through Myrtle Beach's playoff games
