I was looking for a box score for the combined no-hitter Sergio Romo threw in 06 with the GreenJackets, to make a point in my final Cal League notebook of the year (sadface). I tied it in to the combined no-no thrown by Mixon, Shaver, and Cova in San Jose last week. I found this gem from Rotoworld in my search: Romo, 23, was a 28th-round pick in the 2005 draft. He's 10-2 with a 2.49 ERA, 76 H and 93/19 K/BB in 101 1/3 IP in the South Atlantic League this season, but he's not viewed as one of the Giants' better pitching prospects. Matos probably has the better chance of making it to the majors.

Pitchers are like QBs. No matter how much scouting and statistical analysis advance, some guys will always make writers and scouts look stupid.

QBs are a little bit more reliable, though, I think.

Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

I’m pretty sure they said he had just fringe major league stuff when he was called up.

Yeah, his fastball is pretty fringe but, you know, he throws more than just the fastball…
