  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

    The Boston Red Sox Friday, May 19, 2017 * The Boston Globe Hector Velazquez’s debut isn’t what Red Sox were hoping for Peter Abraham OAKLAND, Calif. — The Red Sox arrived at their hotel in San Francisco at 4 a.m. Thursday after beating the St. Louis Cardinals in 13 innings on Wednesday night. The only player to get a decent night of sleep was pitcher Hector Velazquez, who traveled ahead of the team for what would be his major league debut against the Oakland Athletics. But rested did not equate to ready. The Athletics hit Velazquez hard and beat the Red Sox, 8-3, before a crowd of only 12,016 at Oakland Coliseum. After seven competent seasons in the Mexican League and five strong starts for Triple A Pawtucket this year, the 28-year-old Velazquez was deemed ready for the majors. He was not. Velazquez allowed six runs on nine hits over five innings. Five of the hits were for extra bases, three of them home runs. “Thought there might be a little bit better command in the strike zone,” Sox manager John Farrell said. “He’s a guy that we felt like had a very efficient and pretty basic delivery and the ability to repeat a release point. There were some pitches that stayed up in the middle of the plate and they made him pay for it.” No roster move was made after the game, but Velazquez may not be around for long. The Sox have a day off on Monday and by Wednesday could have David Price ready to come off the disabled list.

The reality, of course, is that it can't happen for every team every season. When a team isn't competing, it usually means it's rebuilding time, or they become "sellers," especially during the Trade Deadline and the offseason. Depending on the state of the organization, the hope may be for a quick turnaround, or there could be a long-range plan in place. As the calendar is about to flip to 2016, a bit of retrospection is in order. In the past year, some teams have improved their farm systems more than others.
