there was a little article about him yesterday on fangraphs

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/where-is-robert-manuel/

yeah I can’t figure it out. My guess is he’ll be up there soon, I don’t know how they can justify keeping him away much longer when almost everyone in the pen has struggled this year.

It isn't unusual to slump a little post-promotion.

He’s had what, less than 40 PA in AAA so far? He’s hit very well every year, nothing to be worried about yet.

Yeah I guess but he isnt putting it together like I thought he would.
Pawtucket has some curse where no one ever can hit (except Nava so far)

he'll be alright

just some time to adjust to generally better pitching and a new team. We don’t need him till 2012 anyways if he takes some more time developing.

He’s getting on base OK at around .350 but he’s lost his slugging mostly. Could still be adapting, it’s early yet. He hasn’t been bad, just not as good as at Portland.

Um...

Before this 0-5, he was hitting .261/.370/.522

Talk about a huge overreaction to one game.

Eh, the whole team was striking out.

Probably just the pitching they were up against.

Their starter had 5 ks in his 5 innings with two earned runs, seems like he was having a decent night. Then the reliever came in and K’ed 3 of his 4 outs and then the rest of Lynchburgs relievers blew it and lost the game.
