Scherzer's Getting Attention

For those of you following Sidewinders starter Max Scherzer's exploits, he's getting even more national attention.  Scherzer's fantastic start (1.17 ERA, 38 strikeouts in 23 innings) earns him nothing but praise in today's Yahoo! Fantasy Sports article. 

With the start he's having, it's unlikely that Scherzer will still be at the Triple-A level when the Sidewinders franchise is in Reno in 2009.  Still, there are quite a few prospects in the organization that could be wowing fans in Downtown Reno next season, including...

Jarrod Parker- Single-A South Bend...1.86 ERA, 11 K's in 9 innings of work

Cesar Nicolas- Double-A Mobile... .360 batting average, .443 on-base percentage

Emilio Bonifacio- Triple-A Tucson... leading the PCL with 9 stolen bases

Looking forward to seeing some quality baseball on the river next year!

UPDATE:  Scherzer was called up for Arizona's game against San Diego on Sunday.  Good luck Max!
