Isan Diaz & Monte Harrison doing damage early!

[And That]

Monte Harrison halfway to a cycle (double, triple) through two innings in Burlington. Isan Diaz, new Wisconsin lead-off man, has a single and a double as well.

Real nice day so far in the matinees. Diaz and Harrison both with 3 hit days with two extra base hits. Pitching performances at A and AAA also pretty solid. Cecchini continues to hit pretty well too although not for much power.

[markedman5]

From Tom H

How about this start by Junior Guerra for @skysox today: 7 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 7 K. 82 pitches, 60 strikes.

 

Hit 99 today?

Harrison and Gatewood also coming around. Must say though, Diplan continues to be meh ever since he joined the organization. He's young, just want to see more from him if really is a top 15-20 prospect.

I don't know if 'meh" is fair for a 25% K rate and sub 4 era in the most hitter friendly league in pro ball at 3.2 years younger than league average.

Not so much what? I'm sure there a places with greater park factors than Helena, but the Pioneer League routinely grades out as the

most offensive friendly league.

Yeah Wisconsin is pretty neutral.... Not more of an advantage either way. Any teams out in Colorado, Neveda, Cali are your hitter leagues. (PCL & Cali League). Florida & south eastern leagues (FSL) tend to favor pitchers

 

Remember Lopez was so bad at Wisconsin they sent him all the way to the DSL. He showed nothing until BC. Diplan is showing his stuff but he is a young power thrower learning to pitch.

 

 

Edit thought you were talking MWL & not Pioneer League, my bad

[Jenkins5]

It should be noted that Diplans first game was like 25 degrees with 30mph & snow..... Call after 5. Hard to fault him for struggling

Final: Wisconsin 10, Burlington 4

 

Rattlers slug their way to a win in Burlington

Isan Diaz has four hits, Harrison & Rubio add three hits a piece

By Chris Mehring / Wisconsin Timber Rattlers

 

Wisconsin Boxscore

 

Chris' thorough game story covers everything I would have here.

 

I'm not into making excuses for players, Marcus Diplan while young and inexperienced with cold weather just isn't finding the zone consistently enough at this point. He has plenty of stuff, it will be interesting to see how he progresses over the course of the season.

I thought you were talking about the MWL, I've never considered short season ball to be indicative of much.

[Noche]

Guerra is one of our best 5 SP now I think. Bring him up.
