    Is Mike Carp hurt, or has he just been ineffective lately? I’ve been used to seeing his name in the recap, but I haven’t seen it recently.

    • Nate W. says:

      Carp hadnt played since the 8th, but he did PH yesterday. So I guess they are bringing him back slowly.
      The minor league DL is 7 days, and he was out 9 days…

    Does St. Lucie EVER win a game???????

    • Nate W. says:

      about one a week. :(

      the FSL is a 1/2 year league, meaning they will get a reset once they reach their AS break and they will get a chance to put up a better record in the second half.

      Look for the Cyclones to be particurally stacked this year as both Savannah and St. Lucie arent very good and many players will likely be moved down (improperly for their development) to make the Cyclones good.

    Is it just me, or does the word “loss” appear frequently on these minor league recaps?
