- Matt Maloney was throwing a great game the other night, before having to be removed due to a blister.
* It's been the opinion of this blogger that Maloney's past performance is far more impressive than Micah Owings, portending better things for the new guy.
* Reds Need OBP's recommended Jocketty target - Matt Murton - OF for the Rockies - continued to rake in the PCL as their season came to a close. Potential Jonny Gomes replacement this offseason, should he leave?!
- Last night, Bronson Arroyo pitches well...AGAIN! Finishing the season strong.
* Game ends in loss, unfortunately.
- Yonder Alonso doing well. Press release from the Carolina Mudcats:
"Alonso, the seventh overall pick of the 2008 draft, displayed why he was ranked as the top prospect in the Reds organization before the 2009 season by leading the league in most offensive categories. The 22-year-old first baseman recorded four multi-hit games and twice had three hits. He powered Carolina to a 6-4 win over Montgomery on September 1, batting 3-for-5 with two doubles and three RBI. His solo blast on September 4 helped the Mudcats edge Mississippi 8-7. The Miami, Fla. native led the league with a .458 average, 11 hits, four doubles, a .536 on-base percentage, five extra-base hits and six runs. He also ranked second with a .750 slugging percentage."
