Droppings from the Nest, July 29th
Because of the off day yesterday, the droppings are few and far between. We still managed to get a little love though.
- The Idaho Statesman talks about recent roster moves and D.J. LeMahieu’s skip over Boise.
- The Idaho Press-Tribune looks at the Hawks’ newest addition, second baseman Derrick (DJ) Fitzgerald.
As you can tell from the droppings, the big news yesterday involved some movement within the organization. Cubs No. 2 draft pick, D.J. LeMahieu was promoted to the Peoria Chiefs, skipping right over us here in Boise. In return, Chiefs second baseman Derrick Fitzgerald was sent to Boise. In order to make room on the Hawks roster, RHP Larry Suarez was sent to Mesa. Talk about the domino effect!
So as we move into this homestand against the Vancouver Canadians, we have added two new players to the roster, Fitzgerald and LHP Chris Rusin. Should be interesting with the roster a little shaken up again.
Droppings from the Nest, July 14th
Hawks notched another win against Vancouver last night with pitcher Larry Suarez getting his first win of the season–and his first win since 2007. In an uplifting performance, the bullpen came through and staved off the Canadians for the 6-3 victory.
The Hawks bats weren’t silent either as Jose Valdez extended his hitting streak to six games and Logan Watkins extended his streak to six games. Overall, the Hawks recorded 10 hits.
Let’s check out those droppings:
- The Idaho Press-Tribune has a quick recap of last night’s win.
- The Idaho Statesman looks at the Hawks’ second straight win against the Canadians.
- Mike Safford, the voice of the Hawks, has put together a fantastic Hawks alumni report; you can check it out on boisehawks.com or his blog.
