Luis Exposito: 3-8, 2B -- .286/.324/.429-Expo's numbers just keep on improving since the bad start.Jose Iglesias: 2-8, HR, K -- .222/.286/.378-Again some pop out of Iglesias. His bat is clearly a work in progress, and he needs to work on plate patience BIG TIME (4 out of 5 at bats last game were 1-pitch at bats. The other was a strikeout. Though he did record RBIs on 3 of 5, so it's worth considering that it might have been somewhat situational.)Ryan Kalish: 4-9, 2B, 2 BB, K -- .292/.368/.333-After putting on a surprising power performance during the regular season, it's all but disappeared for Kalish in the fall. I wouldn't worry too much about it, though. It could be fatigue, it could be what he's working on, but he's shown he can smack 20+ out. His emergence as a patient hitter who's gonna get on base a lot is much more important.Casey Kelly: 0-4, BB, K-Whoo!Randor Bierd: 3 IP, 4 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 1 HR, 2 BB, 4 K – 5.60 ERA, 12:9 K:BB, 1.19 WHIP-A poor fall can't be a good sign for Bierd's flickering career.Richie Lentz: 3 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 K – 0.77 ERA, 13:2 K:BB, .77 WHIP-Lentz is putting on quite the show after getting pounded in Portland this year. A dramatic improvement in control (33 BB in 36 IP to 2 in 12) can't hurt.Chris Province: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K – 3.12 ERA, 8:4 K:BB, 1.04 WHIPDustin Richardson: 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 3 K – 5.19 ERA, 13:7 K:BB, 1.85 WHIP-Includes 1 IP, 2 H, 1 K in the Rising Stars game. That inning will not be included in season numbers.
Reynaldo Rodriguez: .261/.352/.391 in 46 ABs
Mark Wagner: 1-8, K – .296/.390/.500-Can't dominate every week.Jose Capellan: 7.1 IP, 9 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 5 BB, 0 K – 3.71 ERA, 4:10 K:BB, 1.53 WHIP-The ERA isn't horrible. But the peripherals...Oh the peripherals.
Mitch Dening: .500/.600/1.500 in 4 ABsBoss Moanaroa: .357/.500/.429 in 14 ABs-Still want to see the power.Moko Moanaroa: .250/.357/.250
Yeiper Castillo: 2.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 1 K – 1.80 ERA, 4:4 K:BB, 1.40 WHIPFelix Doubront: 4.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 0 K – 2.84 ERA, 2:0 K:BB, .95 WHIPLeandro Marin: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K – 3.38 ERA, 4:0 K:BB, 1.13 WHIP

Other than that one game where he got rocked Dustin Richardson has done pretty well for himself
I wonder if he gets a shot at the bullpen in ST
DFA Beckett

He almost certainly will.
Jason McLeod mentioned him and Wagner as guys they’re watching in ST.

Lopez Surprising?
Is that because everyone killed the part of their brain which housed the Lopez pitching memories with alcohol?
…or a power drill?
Rock me, sexy Jesus...

Just that he'd be a free agent so soon after looking like a cost-controlled bullpen arm.
Besides which, as bad as ’09 was, he had pretty good numbers otherwise. He was one of our most reliable arms in ’08.

Do you have to be over 21 to operate a power drill?
If not, then that’s probably what I did. I don’t remember though.

Fan favorite whenever I go to Portland. Hit one over the Maine Monster to roaring applause once (Haven’t checked his power numbers, may have been the ONLY time).

SoxProspects.com
So did you just wholesale-copy the minor league free agent list and the fall-winter participant list from SoxProspects.com without giving any attribution? Because that seens to be the only place with the ML free agent list, the only place reporting on the Sox player’s involvement in the Sydney Winter League and the Colombian League stats. That’s messed up – if you’re going to steal somebody’s work, at least give some credit.

You're kind of accurate.
The free agent list is, admittedly, from Sox Prospects, and I should certainly have attributed that to them. It’s my oversight, and I’ll own it. I also did first discover that Rodriguez was participating in the CWL from Sox Prospects, but have since used the official site (http://teamrenteria.info/teamrenteria/Joomla/) for his numbers. Likewise with the Marlins’ players (http://www.nswml.baseball.com.au/site/baseball/nswml/downloads/ML%202009-10%201st%20Grade/ccm1st.htm)
Fall-winter numbers for the more established leagues are easily found on MLB.com.
I will certainly apologize for not giving SoxProspects.com proper credit for the free agent list. I will not apologize for reporting on the CWL and SWL players much like I wouldn’t for not mentioning “I learned about Tim Federowicz by visiting SoxProspects.com” every time I talk about Tim.
