Back from the futures game. Good win for Lowell. Sat in the section with all the scouts so I pretty much had access to gun readings and all. Kris Johnson was so so for me. Prolly had some nerves and he still likely isn't fully recovered from TJS. Justin Masterson was spectacular. 4 really dominant innings. got in one jam because an error then the next guy doubled but easily ended the inning with a K. He needs to be a starter. Lil paps closed it out for the spinners. Game 2 I was only staying until Hansen pitched. 2 innings for him. Pretty much was 94-96 with his fastball and low 90's with his cut fastball along with 87-88 on his slider. He should be using his slider more to get ahead in counts. He gave up 4 hits and a run. 3 of them were hit hard off him and was a bloop. could have been worse if it were not for I believe 2 double plays. I actually was behind Red Sox director of ameutor scouting Jason McLeod and asked him what the plans are for Masterson next year and if he would be a starter. He said that he would be pitching in 4 inning stints next year so that leads me to believe he could be a starter eventually because he has the stuff for it.

Good stuff, jsinger.

Anyone planning on going this year?

I'll be heading up there with the Renegades for the games, which i'm really looking forward to. I can't wait to see the Fenway of today. The last time I was there was back in 2000, before all of the great additions, upgrades, and renovations; so it'll be cool to just be able to enjoy Fenway in that atmosphere. I'd probably find it hard to appreciate it as much if it were a Sox game or something, with so much noise and people and whatnot, so when I found out we were sending busses up there for the games I hopped on board right away.

Who is Portland gonna be playing? I just read it but I forgot already

**schillingouttheks** · 07-05-2007, 01:00 PM

Portland's playing the Harrisburg Senators.

I wanted to go, but I'm going to be college touring in the Virginia/DC/Maryland area so I won't be able to. Luckily I'm going to the Sox game on the 12th at Camden Yards, so that'll be cool (it's my first Sox game at a stadium not named Fenway Park, lol).

Coco's Disciples · 07-05-2007, 01:22 PM

I have tickets in the field box. I'm excited.
