AJ got the news today that he is being promoted to AAA Tucson Sidewinders. He will leave Mobile Thurs early morning, and may even get into a game that night.

I am so proud of how well he has done this season after returning to AA ... he learned some new things and applied them and had a great 2 months in Mobile (ending with a 1.53 ERA in 29.1 IP, with a 4/27 BB/K ratio and a WHIP of 0.99).

Life is good !!!!

It certainly wasn't pretty by any stretch ... first inning I could "see" from 200 miles away that he had the "do I really belong here" jitters. His dad was at the game and called to say he was so obviously nervous ... fast ball was no where near the strike zone ... and apparently, from the pitch sequence, not calling his own game (tonight's catcher has caught him before and AJ has always had to call his own game with this guy). But despite giving up two walks, a pop up, and a hit and having bases loaded with one out ... he escaped disaster and struck out the next two batters. I can breathe now.
