• Last week (3-3): 2-1 vs. Houston, 1-2 vs. Dallas
• Orlando’s Keith “Silencer” Wilson (3-1, 1.94) threw his second shutout of the year. You can look it up: I predicted that he was going to be the real deal back in 2008.
• LF Ray Banks has suffered an injury setback and will miss an extra week or two.
• Mike Anderson will be pushed back a day to Thursday and Gentry will move up.
• 05/05: LOU 4, HOU 3 – Arkle bases-loaded single in 9th for GWRBI
• 05/06: LOU 1, HOU 0 – Gentry 8 IP, 0 ER, 5 H, 3 BB, 3 K, W (4-2, 3.35 ERA)
• The Providence Grays put 35-year-old RF Dennis Morgan on the trading block.
• 05/07: HOU 8, LOU 2 – Long (HOU) 4-5, DBL, 2 RBI; Anderson 7 IP, 5 ER, L
• 05/08: DAL 4, LOU 0 – Moreno (DAL) 6 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 1 K
• Lefty MR Shusaku Kouki (4G, 3.2 IP, 7.32 ERA) was optioned to AAA and lefty MR Bruce Irvine (8.1 IP, 1.08 ERA) was recalled. Kouki needs regular work to develop.
• 05/09: DAL 4, LOU 1 – Roman (DAL) 8 IP, 1 ER, 6 H, 3 BB, 4 K
• 05/10: LOU 5, DAL 2 – Morrison 3-4, HR, 2 RBI; Rodriguez 8 IP, 0 ER, W (2-1)
• SS Luis Vargas sprained his knee running the bases. The CBA’s leading hitter will be out for six weeks. That’s a punch in the gut, but it could have been worse.
• Who’s Hot: SP Ben Gentry 3G, 3-0, 0.00 ERA, 24.2 IP, 12 H, 8 BB, 10 K
• Who’s Not: SP Mike Anderson 3G, 0-2, 11.66 ERA, 14.2 IP, 22 H, 5 BB, 14 K
• This week: 3 at Salt Lake City, 3 big games at Chicago
