NOTES FROM DOWN ON THE FARM...
- With the plights of Rocco Baldelli and Elijah Dukes, the Rays future center fielder could be Fernando Perez. With amazing speed, a .400 OBP and two team MVPs already on his resume, Perez is expected to be added to the Devil Rays 40-man roster this off-season and could be up with the parent club as soon as September of 2008.
- Of course, another center fielder may have something to say about that. Jason Pridie has been promoted to AAA Durham. After struggling in 2006 at AA Montgomery, Pridie is having a very strong 2007, hitting .290 with 16 doubles, 7 triples, 4 home runs and 14 stolen bases.
- On Saturday, Jason Pridie went 1-2 and homered in his AAA debut.
- Jeff Niemann hasn't shown consistent dominance yet at the AAA level but his numbers are actually much better than we thought. One website ranks his AAA numbers as one of the top-5 pitchers currently in AAA.
- Princeton Rays manager Jamie Nelson is 1 win short of tying current Dodgers manager Grady Little for 20th on the all-time Appalachian League managerial wins list.
- A recap of the Vero Beach Devil Rays first half in which they finished 3rd.
