Tommy Hanson Tosses No-No

I have tried to stay away from my players as much as possible in the previous posts but I have to mention the performance of Tommy Hanson on June 25th. He threw a no hitter and had 14 Ks in the process. He plays in the Southern League AA for the Mississippi Braves (Atlanta is the parent club) and has a record of 7-4 with an ERA of 2.80 combined from single A and Double AA. He is a strikeout pitcher with 98 Ks in 90 IP and has only 30 BB on the season. Opponets are only hitting .174 off of him. He stands at 6'6 and weighs 210 lbs and grew u pin Tulsa, OK. Many experts have him pegged for the 2009 Atlanta rotation as the Braves will probably have some openings.
