RHP JOEL PAYAMPS has a chance to start, but at worst they see him as a reliever with a mid- 90s fastball and two useable offspeed pitches. RHP BO TAKAHASHI doesn’t have much projection, but he has good command, pitchability and deception; three useable pitches; and a bulldog mentality on the mound. ATLANTA BRAVES RHP JOSH GRAHAM is a converted catcher who has a solid fastball/breaking ball combo but he has a tendency to overthrow, which has led to significant control issues.

There are other people who helped tremendously and at the top of the list there are Linda Steijger and Pablo Carpio: Linda is so insightful and she has done so much in the last three years and Pablo generously took time away from his job and family in the true spirit of friendship and passion, he never hesitated to point out the spots where he thought we have to make something clearer. Our meetings always ended with a last-minute reminder to add a word, a paragraph, and Linda had to change the pages again.

The 27-year-old recorded the best start of his career Wednesday against Washington. Facing the team that drafted him, he permitted just one hit and one walk in seven scoreless innings. Had he remained on schedule, Meyer would have next started Wednesday in Cleveland. Because of their recent off days, the Angels do not need to replace him on their roster until Saturday in Toronto. When the Angels acquired Meyer from Minnesota on Aug. 1 last year, he was recovering from a shoulder injury that had forced him to miss most of the season.

    Arm Rating Page 1 of 1 Arm Rating [Arm] An APBA rating measuring the throwing ability of a player. Range is from 20 to 40, higher being better. Affects the ability of a player, especially an outfielder, to obtain assists in throwing out advancing base runners. Runners attempting to advance extra bases against fielders with high arm ratings do so at their peril. mk:@MSITStore:C:\Program%20Files%20(x86)\APBA%20Games\Baseball\WinLM.chm... 5/12/2020 Batting Characteristic Page 1 of 1 Batting Characteristic [Plat] An APBA rating of a batter's hitting tendency. There are four types: SA Straight Away PL Pulls Left PR Pulls Right PB Pulls Both (a switch hitting pull hitter) The Platoon rating (Plat) will tend to effect the direction the ball will take when it is hit by the batter. For example, a PL batter may have a higher double play frequency, because he rarely hits balls into the hole between first and second base, and because he bats right, he has farther to go to reach first base and his momentum is not in that direction, as it is for a left-handed batter.

    MEDIA CLIPS – April 29, 2016 Bucs-Rox finale postponed; no makeup set By Thomas Harding / MLB.com | @harding_at_mlb | April 28th 2016 DENVER -- The Pirates-Rockies game scheduled for Thursday at Coors Field was postponed well before game time because of inclement weather. As the announcement came shortly after 11:30 a.m. MT, the scoreboard showed a temperature of 37 degrees. Intermittent light snow had fallen. Scheduled game time was 1:10 p.m. No makeup announcement was immediately made. The postponement comes at a good time for the Rockies. Manager Walt Weiss made his lineup card with a planned day off for rookie shortstop Trevor Story -- his second in three days. He also wanted to give right fielder Carlos Gonzalez, who has started every game, off Friday at Arizona. The Rockies have lost five straight, including six of the last seven. They went 1-5 on the just-completed homestand, during which their starters compiled a 9.72 ERA. They overcame a six-run deficit Sunday against the Dodgers and came back from seven runs down Wednesday against the Pirates, yet lost both contests. Additionally, the bullpen was fatigued because starters Jorge De La Rosa and Jon Gray went three innings and 3 2/3 frames, respectively, on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Rockies announced that they were pushing their rotation back for the three-game series at Arizona. Tyler Chatwood, Thursday's scheduled starter, will pitch Friday, followed by lefty Chris Rusin and righty Chad Bettis. The club has not named its starter for Monday's opener at San Diego, but it could potentially be righty Eddie Butler, who was called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday and was used for 41 pitches in relief.

    MEDIA CLIPS – June 2, 2017 Rockies homer for rookie, snap skid in Seattle By Greg Johns and Josh Horton / MLB.com | June 1st, 2017 SEATTLE -- Mark Reynolds and Nolan Arenado cranked home runs and rookie Kyle Freeland picked up his sixth win of the year as the Rockies snapped a three-game losing streak with a 6-3 victory over the Mariners on Thursday at Safeco Field. The win moved the Rox (34-22) back into the National League West lead, tied with the D-backs, by a half-game over the Dodgers. "Keeping pace is the key for us," Reynolds said. "We got back on the right track on the road with a win, which I think we needed as a club." It was a tough day for the Mariners (25-30), who saw their four-game win streak come to an end and also lost standouts Nelson Cruz and Jean Segura to injuries. • Mariners hopeful injuries aren't serious Freeland gave up six hits and two runs over six innings, improving to 6-3 with a 3.53 ERA. He got plenty of help early as Reynolds opened a four-run second with a two-run homer and Arenado followed with a solo shot in the third for a 5-1 lead. Gerardo Parra went 4-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored, and Greg Holland slammed the door in the ninth for his Major League-leading 20th save. Mariners starter Yovani Gallardo didn't fare well in his shortest outing of the season, giving up six hits and five runs in three innings, as he fell to 2-6 with a 6.24 ERA.

Since then, only Jimmy Rollins and Hanley Ramirez of the National League and Alex Rodriguez of the American League have matched this mark MLB.COM Reds ink Barnhart to 4-year, $16 million deal By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com | @m_sheldon | 9:10 AM ET + 3 COMMENTS CINCINNATI -- The Reds did not wait until the offseason to secure catcher Tucker Barnhart for the long term. On Friday, Barnhart was signed to a four-year, $16 million contract with a $7.5 million club option for the 2022 season that has a $500,000 buyout. He also received a $1.75 million signing bonus. A 2:30 p.m. ET press conference will be held with Barnhart and club executives at Great American Ball Park on Friday. "Tucker has made us proud on the field with his play and off the field with his community involvement," Reds general manager Dick Williams said in a press release. "He worked his way up through our system, improving every step of the way, and has established himself as an elite defensive catcher and a productive offensive player. Switch-hitting catchers who can impact the game defensively are tough to find." Barnhart, 26, would have been eligible for arbitration for the first time this winter. The deal covers all three of his arbitration years, and up to two more in which he could have become a free agent.

    WARNING: READ BEFORE USING YOUR XBOX VIDEO GAME ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM. About Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms including: lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther from the television screen, using a smaller television screen, playing in a well-lit room, and not playing when you are drowsy or fatigued. If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing. Other Important Health and Safety Information. The Xbox Instruction Manual contains important safety and health information that you should read and understand before using this software Avoid Damage to Your Television Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, especially front- or rear-projection types, can be damaged if any video games, including Xbox games, are played on them.
