Boone Logan- Filthy

Charlotte was in town last night for another pointless 1-game "series".  Heath Phillips started and got torched.  6 runs and 11 hits in 5 innings and Durham did their best White Sox impression and made 4 unnecessary outs on the bases during that time.  The awful Doug Waechter (1-8, 8.48 in AAA!) bailed him out and kept him from getting an L.

Fields and Sweeney looked solid.  A single and a double each.  Rogowski looked terrible, going 0-4 and failing to scoop up an easy throw from Fields that led to an unearned run.  Owens got hurt somehow running to first on a routine single and had to be pulled.  Chris Stewart gunned out a runner (it was the abysmal Luis Rivas in one of those 24% of at bats where he gets on base) and supposedly is throwing out over 50% of base-stealers this year.  He may not be starting catcher material, but he can clearly be an MLB backup.

But the highlight of the game was Boone Logan.  Entering in the 9th with a one-run lead, he got a weak hitter to pop up and then struck out Darnell McDonald and Delmon Young in a quite nasty fashion.  Young in particular, who is batting .335, swung and missed three times on what appeared to be sliders down and in and wasn't even close to making contact.  I'm coming around on ol' Boone.  He should never have been in Chicago to start the year, but the kid is still a prospect.

Logan
Yeah, he's a very good prospect. Shouldn't have been up in the spring, but he's proving he has a future, and how!

Wow...
looks like we're going to have our share of lefties. If Logan gets called up in the future, do we keep three lefties? Will we even have Thornton/Cotts up there?
