REMINDER: New Britain Rock Cats Game

REMINDER: On Saturday, May 22nd at 6:35pm, Deep River Little League will be honored at the New Britain Rock Cats game against the Binghamton Mets. Tickets are still available. All Deep River Little League players get one ticket for FREE – additional tickets are $10. Email me for any ticket requests, and I’ll make arrangements for a pickup prior to game day.

Don’t know who you’re watching? Ben Revere and Joe Benson are top prospects for the Twins. Baseball prospect experts liken Ben Revere to Kenny Lofton. Joe Benson has rare tools for a CF, showing serious power and developing defensive abilities, but was just sent down to Fort Myers after a disappointing start hitting .219. It looks like David Bromberg will start – he’s not a great prospect – #9 according to Baseball America, but Kyle Gibson is a Grade B+ or #3 according to BA. AUTOGRAPH TO GET: BEN REVERE.

For the Mets, Reese Havens is a top SS prospect, but he’s blocked by Wilmer Flores and everybody’s love/hate Jose Reyes. Scott Shaw looks like he’ll start, but he’s a nobody. AUTOGRAPH TO GET: BRAD HOLT or don’t even bother! Holt is nothing special – Havens may show up in the Majors by September 2011, but will need to switch positions to make it.

Both teams are struggling this season. While the Rock Cats are always stacked with good pitching, the Mets are empty!

Anyway – Have fun!
