I don’t think he’ll ever be a table setter, at least not a good one. His bat just isn’t good enough. That doesn’t mean he can’t be a useful player though.

I just checked the box score from the Augusta game, looks like Culberson made an error tonight. He’s like the master of errors.

eHire made one too

That game was pretty much a bag of suck.

No clue

But not many, he only pitched 4 innings. I’d guess around 60 – 70.

I was the guy with a camera shivering. A lot.

Hey, and I have only one thing to say about Comcast….one of the PA’s they had was gorgeous!

I’ll post my thoughts (on the game) in the Minor Lines thread, though…
