Scott has picked up Trevor Cahill for his farm system. Every pundit compares him to Brandon Webb becuase he induces so many grounds outs as Webb does. Cahill was drated out of high school in the 6th rd in 2006 by the Oakland A's. He currently is playing for Midland RockHouds of the AA Texas League. So far this season he has posted a 9-5 record with a 2.76 ERA and has fanned 126 while walking 42 in 114.1 IP. He is a GB specialist and has 2.55X more ground outs then fly outs. In 2006 he was 11-4 with a 2,73 and had over a K per IP with 107 K in 105.1 IP. He pitched in the year's future game and has been selected to represent the US in the Bejing.
Other Notes
Rick Porcello (Russ) combined with his bullpen to throw a no-hitter against the Mets in single A. The game only went 7 innings.
Greta Van Sustern is a Packers shareholder and season ticket holder and maybe that is why he broke the story with her.
The Rays gave Tim Beckham, the overall #1 pick this year, a record $6.15 million dollar signing bonus. That is $500,00 more then the previous record held by Justin Upton in 2005
