That's never a bad thing. Aumont will be in Wisconsin. Saunders in West Tenn, definitely not Tacoma to start the year. Even of Hill’s future is in relief, starting allows for more work.

He's one to keep an eye on. Anyway, I have a couple of questions. First, does Phillipe Aumont start at Wisconsin or does he stay in extended spring training? Second, how in the world did Stephen Kahn tear his RIGHT ACL? Talk about tough luck! I think being a starter would be better for Hill’s development. He’s one to keep an eye on.

I watched him play a few games and came away impressed. Most important, of course, was his undefeated record against Navy. Well, Hill was a starter at Army and a very good one.

Moore and Saunders are about the only interesting guys, and Saunders could possibly start out in Tacoma, right? I like that Triunfel is going to spend some more time in High Desert. Its probably a good chance for him to develop some power without having to work on adjusting to a new level of pitching at the same time.

I think he gets DL'd and they keep him around somehow. I made that assessment, not a source. As for the Dickey thing, i got some information and took from that info that they absolutely would rather risk losing Dickey than doing the same with Baek. No.
