It was brought to my attention by one of my Twitter friends, thechristianguy, that I never bothered putting any information about glyphs on the blog.
DOH! Definitely an epic failure on my part! I think it's time to fix that!
So, here I list the glyphs that I would personally recommend for your AoE Grinding needs.
Major Glyphs
Judgement: Increases the damage dealt by your Judgements by 10%. [Required Lv: 15]
Consecrate: Increases the duration of Consecrate by 2 seconds, but also increases it's cooldown by 2 seconds. [Required Lv: 20]
Divinity: Doubles the amount of mana restored to the target when you use Lay On Hands, and restores an equal amount of mana to you. [Required Lv: 15]
Exorcism: Your Exorcism spell deals an additional 20% damage. [Required Lv: 20]
Hammer of the Righteous: Your Hammer of the Righteous hits an additional target. [Required Lv: 60]
Glyph of Judgement: I started off using this glyph, because I wanted a boost to my damage at level 15, and that was the only place I could find one. I checked my armory link and found out that I'm actually still using this glyph at level 70, which I will certainly fix tonight when I get home. Judgement is a good place to start if you want to get some more damage in to help you through your lower levels, but it doesn't do a whole lot in the overall scheme of AoE grinding. I might recommend this as your starting glyph to help you get through the mobs a bit faster, but I would most likely replace with Glyph of Divinity as soon as your second Major glyph slot opens up to be used alongside Glyph of Consecration.
Glyph of Divinity: This glyph is very useful for getting back your mana, especially prior to reaching level 40. It doubles the mana that it restores to the target, and also gives you that same amount of mana. If you are AoE Grinding, and you're doing it solo, then most likely you are using this spell on yourself. I have this glyph sitting in my bank, fully intending to replace Judgement for the last 40 levels or so, and completely forgot to switch them out. From the research I've done on the glyph, using it on yourself will effectively restore 4x the normal amount of mana when you cast it on yourself. The only stumbling block you ever come across when AoE grinding is running out of mana, and this goes a long way towards fixing that. Until you find yourself no longer having any mana issues at all, I suggest you continue using this glyph.
Glyph of Consecrate: At level 20 I suggest dropping Glyph of Judgement for this one. While this glyph completely throws off the 96969 rotation of end game tanking, it works great for AoE grinding. The reason why you use this glyph is for its extended duration. Since Consecrate is your main mana-sink, it helps to have to cast it a fewer number of times. This glyph gives you an extra two "ticks" worth of damage for the same amount of mana it would normally take, so in the long run you save yourself some mana. As long as you are AoE grinding, I see no reason to replace this glyph with another.
Glyph of Exorcism: This glyph is really only taken for the increased damage that it deals. I mention it because it is helpful, especially in areas where there are a lot of caster mobs that you need to get down fast. There also happens to be a very high population of undead mobs throughout the game, and dealing that extra damage from an already high-damage spell can be rather brutal. I would not take this glyph over the others unless you find that you do not need the benefit that the others have to offer. Overall, it's a good glyph, just not quite as good as the others.
Glyph of Hammer of the Righteous: This is a glyph that I plan to get, just as soon as I can find an Inscriptionist/Scribe/WhateverNameYouUse that can make it. The server I am on right now has a surprisingly low number of inscriptionists on it so finding glyphs can be hard. As I mentioned in Part II: Paladin AoE Grinding Rotation, HotR is the key to you aggressively taking down large amounts of mobs instead of relying almost entirely on defensive and reflective damage. The spell by itself targets three mobs, and the glyph lets you add another one to the mix meaning you take down more mobs in a shorter amount of time.
Minor Glyphs
Lay On Hands: Reduces the cooldown of Lay on Hands by 5 minutes. [Required Lv: 15]
Blessing of Wisdom: Increases the duration of Blessing of Wisdom by 20 minutes. [Required Lv: 15]
Blessing of Might: Increases the duration of Blessing of Might by 20 minutes. [Required Lv: 15]
Sense Undead: Increases the damage you deal to Undead targets by 1% while your Sense Undead ability is activated. [Required Lv: 20]
Paladins, like a few of the other classes, have a rather sad list of minor glyphs to choose from. Overall, these are the best of what we have been offered – and that is not saying a whole lot.
Glyph of Lay On Hands: This is really the only minor glyph that I would urge you to take, where all of the others are merely suggestions. Being able to fully heal yourself more frequently is always nice, especially if you love to overpull and solo elites like I do. All in all it's really just a matter of helping you to minimize your downtime. When coupled with the Glyph of Divinity up above, you end up having an excellent setup for keeping your health and mana as high as possible at all times. Get this one at 15, and leave it there.
Glyph of Blessing of Might/Wisdom: These are mentioned simply because they are better than the other options we have for minor glyphs. If you find yourself casting one of them more frequently than the other, you might as well pick it up to save yourself some time. Neither of these really serves any purpose in helping with your grinding, there just isn't anything else to choose.
Glyph of Sense Undead: This glyph is the only one that offers you any real boost to your grinding speed, but even then only if you happen to be fighting undead. In all honesty, I think I have only ever turned on Sense Undead one time in both of my paladin's careers combined. If you happen to be grinding undead mobs though, then you might as well dish out some more damage to them. Again, this glyph is not required, and its usefulness is limited to a single type of mob.

thanks to David Germain for this great link below!
Holy cow! Aggie (tomorrow's Franz Waxman) told me yesterday marked 2 years of my blog already. I always figured I'd have run out of stuff to talk about long ago.
Maybe I could collect my thoughts and try to explain why I'm doing it.
1) I have a big mouth:
I'm always thinking about what makes stuff work and how to try new ideas. I talk to my equally theoretical friends all the time about cartoons. Writing my latest obsessions and thoughts out makes me zero in on them in more detail. So I learn a lot myself by trying to articulate clearly what began as vague observances and notions in my muddled brain.
2) To help widen other cartoonists' tastes and horizons:
Not everyone has access to a lot of our cartoon history and legacy. I've been collecting cartoons, toys, comics and illustrations for decades. I had a big library at spumco and always encouraged the artists to take advantage of it.
Like these guys at Dic who didn't really appreciate it.
I think today, more than ever, it's hard to see the heights that cartoon art has reached if you are only getting your influences from modern animation and comic strips. They don't run many classic cartoons on TV anymore. Modern comic strips are very primitively drawn (and written) compared to comics of 50 to 90 years ago.I think that the more influences you have, the more you can avoid being trapped in a current "style". Having a style (the way some people today think of style) is an extremely creatively limiting handicap. I think being aware of a huge assortment of individual styles (as opposed to group styles) and being able to draw well without having to rely on simple stylistic tricks allows you to think up many more ideas and execute a much wider range of characters, stories and technical challenges.
I sure don't expect everyone to agree with me on this point, but for those who do have eclectic tastes and want to know more about what's done, I'm more than happy to share whatever I've discovered in search for great cartoon art and ideas.
The cartoonists today who have the most unique styles and the widest range of functional abilities also have a lot of influences. They don't just imitate a group style.
Jim Smith, Katie Rice, Nick Cross, Mike Kazaleh, Bob Camp, Dave Feiss, Chuck Gammage, Eddie Fitzgerald and others don't imitate, yet they all have their imitators.
There are quite a few younger cartoonists appearing that have a wide range of influences, which is highly encouraging to me. Combine this with functionality and you will be the next leaders of the business!
Kali, Rex, Mitch and lots more!
Also, there are so many great helpful blogs out there. Kevin Langley, The Animation Archive, Temple Of The Seven Camels, Bob Jaques' Popeye blog, Theory Corner, Michael Sporn, Hans Bacher and more.
This is a renaissance in archival cartoon archaeology!
3) To inspire a return to cartoon roots:
Since hardly any modern cartoons really embrace what distinguishes cartoons from other media, I want to try to find others like me who like cartoons to be cartoony.
We came up with a new theory about how to critique the great cartoons. To me (and others) the heights of cartoon art are more like music than they are like literal stories. Music has its own special language to describe its structure and melodies and we need a language like that. Otherwise, we are stuck trying to describe cartoons in terms of other media like live-action film, or novels. While there is some overlap between what cartoons do and what other artistic media does, there are also blatant difference. Those differences are what define us, what set us apart from other forms of entertainment.
I'm going to contact Daniel Goldmark -who studies classic cartoon music, and see if I can get him to sit down with me and Eddie to watch cartoons and try to find useful terms and structural concepts from the movements and patterns in music. It may give us a jumping off point to help us describe our favorite cartoons.
These cartoons below could not be critiqued in terms of plot structure or logic, yet they are among the most moving and creatively inspired of all cartoons.
Swing You Sinners
Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs
Baby Bottleneck
You Belong To My Heart
Bad Luck Blackie
4) To Teach Principles and Techniques To The Next Generation Of Cartoonists:
Not every cartoonist is interested in the classic artistic and cartoon drawing tools, but for those who love old cartoons and would like to have those skills, there is no place I know of today where you can learn them.
I know this from experience, because I have hired so many cartoonists straight out of college and have had to personally teach what used to be basic skills to them.
You really can't afford to do this while actually on a project. Networks expect you to start drawing functional drawings the day you begin a project. They can't tell the difference between a truly descriptive controlled drawing and a flat uncontrolled drawing. They don't know that one makes a cartoon much more effective in telling a story and they don't care.
I've spent so much of my own money training people and have decided I can't afford it anymore. So I figured when I started this blog, I'd just put up my old manuals and then people could teach themselves. That way, next time I start a major project, I could just find the people who really wanted to do the same sorts of cartoons I like and who already have the tools I know I need.
5) To encourage Analysis:
If anyone is to bring back some of what we like about classic cartoons, we need to be able to break down what we like into its separate elements and then start applying those elements to our own work.
This can be a difficult process and it hurts to break down our prejudices, but it's the only way to begin to understand why we like certain cartoons. Then it is important to apply what we learn to our own work and that is even harder!
But you really can't understand an artistic concept fully, until you can do it yourself. First, discover a concept, then do it a few times until it sinks in.
I hope I have unveiled some elements of what makes cartoons work, but only each individual can make themselves learn it by doing it.
6) Blind Habit:
It's become a habit to do this stuff. I really don't expect everyone to agree with everything I say, or which cartoons I like. The danger of publishing your own opinions publicly is that those who disagree with you sometimes take it too seriously - especially online!
I think most people who come here are probably in 80-90% agreement with my overall view.
Basically that classic cartoons are mostly of a much higher quality than modern cartoons. We may disagree on whether Chuck is better than Bob, or whether Disney is more artistic than Avery, but in the broad scheme of things those are really minor differences.
I'm amazed at how those small differences sometimes explode into huge flame wars! Really, what we all agree on is what I hope will someday come back into fashion in the animation world. There are many forces against us, so I hope a few of us will find a way to collaborate on what we agree on and take back a place for ourselves in the business that those like us created and made so successful and unique in the first place.
So thanks to everyone who has encouraged my incessant rambling and striving for ways to make more cartoon fun!
7) Crass Capitalism
Oh yeah! It doesn't hurt to have people contribute! Thanks to all the latest pals who know the sincerest form of appreciation.

Month 34: Look Mommy, No Seat!
At the end of last month, when we were out and about I forgot to bring our Primo Travel Potty Seat. Our outing trips are usually pretty avereage or short length and Itty Bitty had an epic capacity, so if we made a pitstop before leaving it is rare that she needs a potty stop on an average errand. We'd gone out to eat and I had diapers for Mini Moose, and was so used to not needing a travel seat for a 2 hour outing that I was taken by surprise when Itty Bitty announced her urgent need! No big deal really, we've had to do the balancing act a couple of times before. Off we went to the bathroom and we discovered that she had grown big enough to balance herself on the seat without needing me to offer support(the bathroom was very clean)! When did that happen!?
After that discovery, Itty Bitty didn't began to experiment with not using the insert on the toilet at home right away until after we returned from our annual Ohio trip (Read about it here at Brothet's Blog — June 28 to July 9). Once she did, however, she quickly disvcovered that without the insert she could hoist herself backwards easily without the aid of a stool and was able to balance with little effort. She has been very keen to use the toilet this way, though if she desires more tush comfort she still will choose the insert from time to time, and if in an extraordinary rush will use the little potty though she looks ridiculous on it with such long legs! She is no longer adamant about emptying her own potty and is more ambivalent if it is messy leaving it for me without argument. She's gotten quite good at self wiping and only asks for help if she notices if it is especially difficult.
We had a couple of notable toileting matters:
When I got home from work Daddy Man said they played outside for a while and that, "I was busy with Mini Moose and when I looked up I got an eye full of Itty Bitty dropping trou to squat and pee outside the sandbox."
Oh dear, I knew peeing the baby outside was going to come back to bite me in the butt! I'll need to have a conversation with Itty Bitty. It's a proud thing that she didn't pee in the sandbox and took initiative, but she's not an in arms baby and just taking a whiz outside whenever she feels like it is not necessary unless it is an emergency or where facilities aren't available.
Itty Bitty decided to play in the toy corner and got herself stuck. As she tried to extricate herself and was almost out, her bladder let go. I heard the waterfall and she was standing there like a deer in headlights. It got cleaned up easily and I made a mental note to remind her occasionally to assess bathroom needs–only after it has been a couple of hours. She'd gone to the bathroom successfully several times today and even had a big poop, so it was just a situational accident.
I came home to a too quiet house. Turns out that Itty Bitty went back to attention seeking behavior. Had a tantrum when they got home because she wanted to stay outside but the baby was wanting to eat and was hot. Daddy Man let her stay in the jeep for 15 minutes to try to diffuse the situation but the baby was too hot and was really wanting mommy milk. He said it spiraled from there because he couldn't give her attention. G-Ma stopped by and not even that changed things because Itty Bitty wanted Daddy Man. I guess, now that the Mommy situation was corrected she was seeking to fix the Daddy situation. After G-Ma left and Mini Moose was on his second bottle and was just about asleep Itty Bitty apparently had had enough. I am told she stood by him on the couch, lifted her leg, and peed.
She's done that once before with him ("War and Pees" from Cause and Effect Month 21).
He cleaned it up calmly and ignored the behavior (he held it together — he wanted to spank but knows that's a big no no with me–that's a big loss of control and he's a strong dude who can hurt you when he's just playing around even when he's being careful ). Daddy Man put some water in the tub and left her to it. She cleaned herself up and that was that. She was mellowed after, he said. Perhaps she felt mortified with herself or realized it was an impulse move that had the opposite effect of what she really wanted. Too bad toddlers don't come with sim thought bubbles.
There were no other errant pee incidences or acting out this month. Funny how two incidents were unrelated to the situational pee, but had the common thread of wanting to be acknowledged. Another attention seeking moment unrelated to pottying did happen another day: Itty Bitty's Trip to the ER Jul 18. and the Aftermath.
Sorry that this post was late and backdated nearly a month, I totally forgot about it!

The Skyline girls basketball team got their first win of the year by drubbing Stafford 58-18 in the opening round of the Thunderbird Classic Tuesday night at the Thunderdome.
The Skyline girls basketball team got their first win of the year by drubbing Stafford 58-18 in the opening round of the Thunderbird Classic Tuesday night at the Thunderdome.
The Lady T-Birds were in complete control of the game from the opening moments when Kadi Richardson scored a lay-up on the tip-off play. It never got any better for the outmanned Lady Trojans as the Skyliners outscored their opponents in every quarter to post the 40 point win.
It was a total team effort, as everyone suited up got playing time, and 9 different players scored. "Each girl did something really nice at different times tonight," Skyline head coach Chuck Young commented. "I would have to give credit to the whole team tonight."
The Trojans were overmatched in every way, including height. Although Stafford (perhaps on purpose) didn't list their girls' heights in the program, observation showed that at one point, Skyline's shortest girl on the floor was taller than Stafford's tallest girl. Height isn't everything, but when it comes to basketball, it is something. Stafford played hard, but the outcome was never in doubt.
In the first quarter, Skyline spread the wealth. 7 players scored, with no one having more than 4 points. In Q2, Kaitlyn Stark potted a couple of treys, Janessa Davis hit 4 free throws and a basket, and Morgan Flowers had a couple of buckets to pace the T-Birds.
Leading 36-10 at the break, Skyline's reserves saw even more playing time in the second half. Again in the 3rd stanza, multiple players scored for the T-Birds, with Kadi Richardson's 4 leading the way. Taylor DeWeese made her presence known off the bench in the 4th quarter, scoring 7 points.
Coach Young was pleased with the win. "Games like this give you the opportunity to work on some things," he said. "It can give you a false sense of security though. We're going to have harder games than this later this week and we're going to have to be ready for them."
"I thought we looked the best when we were pressuring full court," he continued. "When we took the press off (because of being so far ahead), we kind of had a tendency to let up. We need to be able to play with as much intensity in the half-court as we do in the full-court."
On Friday night at 6:30, Skyline will face Sedgwick, who lost their first round game to Pretty Prairie 34-26.
Skyline 18 18 14 8 58
Stafford 4 6 4 4 18
Owens 2-0-1/2-5; Janessa Davis 3-0-4/10-10; Flowers 3-0-0/4-6; Swonger 3-0-0/2-6; Richardson 3-0-0-6; Koirth 3-0-0-6; Stark 1-2-0-8; Fisher 1-0-0-2; DeWeese 4-0-1/3-9

What our chalan pago ordot customers say on our Crime Scene Cleanup ?Few of our testimonials from our customers...
We called a few different companies and most of them would not even have anyone to answer our questions, we really didn't get help until we call you guys and just wanted others to know that you were always kind and gave us a lot of help when we were dealing with our uncles death. The dead body was found in another city from where we lived and we had no idea what could be done while we were not there. You guys had the right answers for us and i'm sure you will for others.
Common misconception i think is that you guys only do crime scene clean up, we had a hoarding problem which was too much to handle, for anyone. Not to gross anyone out, but feces was everywhere and so were bugs and god knows what else. WE just knew it couldn't and shouldn't be done by us, not even knowing where to start. You guys came in with a plan and a lot of people, we watched the place change before our eyes. Thanks alot.
Letting you know we have no idea how you could get that odor out of the house, clean up the blood, but so glad we found you online. We were suggested a more expensive cleaning company that was rude and was pleased with how everyone at your customer care number helped answer our questions and get us help.

Dr. Roger Parsons has been a pillar in the St. James community for almost sixty years. There isn't a person in the area who hasn't been impacted in some way by Parsons, his name is recognizable and was even honored with a street named for him near the Mayo Clinic in St. James, but it is his personality that lives on in the memories of his friends and family.
Dr. Roger Parsons has been a pillar in the St. James community for almost sixty years. There isn't a person in the area who hasn't been impacted in some way by Parsons, his name is recognizable and was even honored with a street named for him near the Mayo Clinic in St. James, but it is his personality that lives on in the memories of his friends and family.
"He was my doctor for more than 50 years," says current Mayor Gary Sturm. "Always caring, always willing to take time to listen to any medial concerns."
This is a sentiment echoed by everyone – that Parsons was always there to listen. He was a doctor who never rushed an appointment and always took the time to care. Many in the community have reached out to comment this week, stressing the caring spirit and faithful dedication of Dr. Parsons.
Parsons and his partner, Dr. Keith Moulton, moved to St. James on July 5, 1954. Moulton and Parsons moved into the newly decorated and modernized office on the second floor of the First National Bank formerly occupied by Dr. Bregel and later Dr. Hedlund. Moulton and Parsons later (1959) built a new medical building where they stayed for the next 51 years.
Parsons was instrumental in the process of building St. James first hospital. Parsons commented in a retirement article in the Plaindealer that the opening of the St. James Hospital in 1958 was a n important event in his career. Current Director of the Mayo Clinic in St. James had this to say:
"The passing of Dr. Roger Parsons leaves a void in the hearts and minds of all of us working in health care in the St. James area. His tenure in our local healthcare landscape and patient-centered approach to his work will long be remembered and emulated. He leaves a legacy of dedication and service to patients, their families, our organization and this community.
"His 56-year partnership with Dr. Keith Moulton in St. James brought high-quality health care close to countless people spanning three generations. He truly made a difference in the lives of so many people and we acknowledge and appreciate his impact on the local medical community. He will be greatly missed, but his legacy will remain with us for many, many years.
"We are proud of our association and friendship with Dr. Parsons and we are keeping his family and friends in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time."
Parsons also spent time as an Alderman and Mayor of St. James. He truly cared for the community and the people of the community.
"Doc Parsons was always active in the community and willing to give of his time for improvements and events in our community," said Mayor Sturm.
His caring spirit was recognized when in 1999 Parsons and Moulton were selected for the first-ever state Rural Health Team Award.
The community would have been lucky to have Parsons' even for a short period, but were truly blessed when he and his partner decided to settle down and change the lives of thousands through their special and rare dedication to the St. James area.
"He was a very unique person, a fun guy to be around," said Parsons' long time receptionist Beth Stradtman. "He loved to read and he would share everything he read. He was a person who read every magazine or newspaper he got from top to bottom."
Condolences and comments can be shared online at www.sturmfh.com
Any further comments or memories can be sent to the Plaindealer, emailed to email@example.com, or left on any of our social media pages.

First off, the schedule for the Day of Zazen that I'm hosting up in Essex on this coming Saturday is at the bottom of this blog. I put up a tentative schedule a little while ago. This has now been revised.
Today is my last day in London. Last night I appeared on a programme (note spelling) called Conscious.TV taped in Battersea right near the cover of the Pink Floyd album Animals. I'm not kidding. I was walking to the studio and there it was! The cover to that Pink Floyd album! Right next to me. Gosh. Take a look at the photo I took (top) compared with the photo the folks at Hipgnosis took in the Seventies. There was no inflatable pig when I went by, unfortunately.
It turned out to be a night of rock and roll. The host of conscious.tv is a guy named Iain McNay. I had no idea, but Mr. McNay is the owner of Cherry Red Records, one of the UK's most important punk rock record labels. I've often bought stuff issued by that label. I would never have suspected that the guy who founded the label would now be hosting a TV programme devoted to non-duality. You just never know how these things happen.
It was a great interview. One of the best I've done. I accept a lot of interview requests. In fact, I rarely turn any of them down. I have no idea what any of them are going to be like. Sometimes the interviewers are absolutely clueless about what I do. Those are weird. I have no idea why they've even asked me on their shows. Sometimes the interviewer has some apparent agenda that they are hoping I'll support. Those can also be a bit uncomfortable. Sometimes the interviewers are extremely knowledgeable and have a lot of interesting questions. Those are the ones I like. And, in fact, most the interviews I do are pretty good. Iain McNay was one of the really good ones. The interview will be posted in a couple weeks and I'll put a link up when it is.
While in London I've stayed at my friend Andrew's flat in the picturesquely named London subsection of Shoreditch in Hackney. His place is on the Northern Line. There's fifty two stations on the Northern Line.
Andrew is a student of Mike Luetchford who is another dharma heir of Gudo Nishijima. Mike has been running a Zen group called Dogen Sangha UK out of Bristol for a number of years now. He was one of the first of Nishijima's students to go out on his own as a teacher. You can find info about the groups he set up in Bristol and London at their webpage. I highly recommend these guys if you're looking for a solid sitting group in the UK.
I'm feeling a whole lot better so I may just get through this tour after all! I walked all over London last night. Found a place that sells vegetarian fish and chips so I'm gonna go back there for lunch today.
Finally, I need someone to explain this sign I took a photo of. It's not far from the Battersea power station. I understand that fly tipping is an offence (note spelling). But what is fly tipping?
Is it like cow tipping, a favourite sport in rural parts of America where teenagers go out at night and tip over sleeping cows? Do you sneak up on snoozing flies and gingerly push them over with your fingers? Or do flies in England work on a straight salary basis so it is illegal to tip them for their work? Or perhaps they don't want the flies to know where the juiciest garbage is, so it is therefore illegal to top them as to the location?
I must know the answer!!

Each December at the Winter Meetings is the Rule 5 draft, the draft was created in order to provide a path to the major leagues for players in deep systems that would otherwise be blocked. To be eligible for the Rule 5 draft a player must:
- Not be on a 40 man roster
- Have been in the minor leagues for at least 4 years if he was signed at or after age 19
- Have been in the minor leagues for at least 5 years if he was signed at or before age 18
The main point of interest here is which prospects will receive a 40 man roster spot in order to be protected in the draft. Two of the most controversial players Tyler Cloyd and Darin Ruf received spots on the 40 man roster has part of their September call-ups and are thus exempt from the draft. The Phillies have until November 20 to submit a 40 man roster to the commissioner's office of those that are to be protected.
The draft itself operates in reverse order to the standings and each team may make a pick (making a pick costs the team $50,000) or pass and the draft ends once all teams have passed. There is a minor league portion but since not much talent is moved and it is more about filling out rosters that won't be covered here. Once a player is selected he is subject to these restrictions:
- He must remain on the 25 man roster throughout the regular season
- He must acrrue at least 90 days of active status (not on a disabled list), if a player has less than 90 days he is subject to Rule 5 restrictions until he gains 90 days
- In order to be optioned to the minors the player must be offered back to his original team for $25,000 fee
- If his original team chooses not to accept them back they are the property of the team that drafted them as if they were claimed normally off of waivers
I am going to go through all of the players in the system eligible for the draft regardless of their current level as in 2011 the Cubs selected Lendy Castillo a converted infielder who had only pitched for two years and never above Low-A. There are many players eligible in the system and I will have a brief write up on each but there will be much more priority placed on the higher profile players in the system. (All ages are as of the draft)
2005 International Signings
Tim Kennelly – Age 26
Scouting Report: Up until 2012 Kennelly was an org player who specialized in playing every position on the diamond. After being called to do some mop up pitching Kennelly showed a fastball that touched 97 mph. The Phillies have since begun to transition Kennelly full time to relief pitching. He is rapidly gaining command and control of his fastball and he has a developing slider. If he can harness both he is a potential late inning reliever in the mold of Cardinal's closer Jason Motte.
Prediction: Kennelly certainly has the upside to be a power reliever but he needs to log innings right now to refine his command and control. There is small chance that a major league team would draft Kennelly, but his upside would be lost if he has to take a year in a major league bullpen without regular work.
2006 Draft
D'Arby Myers – 4th round (#127 overall) – age 24
Scouting Report: Myers is generally considered a failed prospect, he got off to a great start his first year of pro ball but he has since struggled to make consistent contact. He is a good defensive player but not quite enough to profile every day in center fielder. While still young, Myers bat profiles primarily in center fielder, which makes him a player without a position, and his upside as a #5 OF.
Prediction: Myers lacks the upside to be a real candidate to be a pick in the draft. He may still eventually make it to the majors at some point, but unless a team is desperate for a late inning defensive replacement he likely will return the Phillies org in 2013.
2007 Draft
Chance Chapman – 8th round (#263 overall) – Age 28
Scouting Report/Prediction: At this point in his career Chapman is a journeyman organizational reliever. It will be less surprising to see him released than selected.
Justin Friend – 13th round (#420 overall) – Age 26
Scouting Report/Prediction: Friend is a great story having been drafted bu the Phillies in the AAA portion of the Rule 5 draft in 2010. In 2012 he put up amazing numbers as Reading's closer with a 0.23 ERA. Friend does not have great stuff, but he has good control and does not make mistakes and gets a good amount of ground balls. Friend may eventually make the majors and be a an effective middle reliever but he will likely need to prove it AAA for a team. In the Rule 5 draft teams are looking for instant help or upside and Friend provides some of the first and not much of the second. Friend likely goes to the LHV bullpen with the hope he gets a 2013 call to help the Phils pen.
Jiwan James – 22nd round (#683 overall) – Age 23
Scouting Report: James started his career as a pitcher before switching to hitting in 2009 after missing 2008 due to injury. James is probably the best defensive center fielder in the organization and he has a plus arm as well. At the plate James has never followed up on the flashes he shown. He has good power and speed but his approach has been below average and he has never been a good base runner. However, James has only had four years of hitting and there is plenty to like if he does put it together.
Prediction: James was one of the highest profile players left unprotected in 2011, but was not selected in the draft. James hasn't improved his stock enough to be protected this year either. For a team looking for a 4th OF James is intriguing because he has the tools to be average at the plate in the majors, and he already is a great defensive player. It is as likely that he gets selected this year as he was last year, which means he probably won't be selected this year.
2007 International Signings
Gabriel Arias – Age 23
Scouting Report/Prediction: Arias has put up good numbers at each level he has pitched at, ultimately ending 2012 in Clearwater. He hasn't shown enough stuff to be fast tracked and spent 4 years in the DSL before making his state side debut. Seems to profile as a useful organizational reliever but not a potential Rule 5 candidate.
Miguel Alvarez – Age 23
Scouting Report/Prediction: Alvarez was an under the radar signing in 2007 out of the Dominican Republic. Alvarez had a breakout year in 2010 for Williamsport showing a chance to be a decent prospect, however he failed to live up to that promise in 2011. Alvarez is far away from the from contributing on a major league level and has no chance of being selected in the Rule 5 draft.
Juan Sosa – Age 23
Scouting Report/Prediction: Couldn't find any good reports on Sosa's stuff but he seems like a good org reliever. Doesn't seem to be any chance of being protected or picked.
Leandro Castro – Age 23
Scouting Report: Castro doesn't have any plus tools but he is also lacking any deficiencies. He hits for power and average, but doesn't have enough power to profile in an outfield corner, and he doesn't have the plate discipline or speed to add secondary skills to his contact ability. He can play all three outfield positions but isn't quite good enough in center to play there every day. Castro's likely role is as a 4th OF, though he could be a starting corner outfielder for a second division team while he is young and cost controlled.
Prediction: Castro likely only needs another half season in the minors before he could step in as a 4th OF. This makes him intriguing to a team that has an outfield corner spot open and a belief that Castro can repeat some of his Reading numbers. If not he could be a good bench player for a team willing to deal with his approach issues at the plate. Castro was left unprotected last year, but a season ending leg injury and having not played above A-ball stopped him from being selected. This year if left unprotected he seems to be a lock to be selected as he will be useful in 2013. Unless trades or signings take up more 40 man spots than predicted, it is likely that Castro will be protected and sent to LHV to refine his skills.
2008 Draft
Ethan Martin – 1st round (#15 overall) Los Angelos Dodgers – Age 23
Scouting Report – Martin struggled early in his career with command, but in 2012 he started to put it all together and posted the best numbers of his career. Martin has a plus fastball that can touch 97 and a slurvy curveball that also flashes plus, and his change up is a work in progress. If he puts it all together he still has #2 pitcher upside, if not he could be a late inning reliever.
Prediction – With the trade investment made in Martin, combined with his upside make him a lock to be added to the 40 man roster.
Anthony Hewitt – 1st round (#24 overall) – Age 23
Scouting Report: Hewitt has all the tools in the world, he has never been able to put them all together. At the time of the draft some scouts but an 80 on his raw power and his speed is plus as well. Hewitt has always struggled with off-speed pitches and has posted huge strikeout rates and low walk rates. Defensively he is limited to a corner where he has plenty of arm, but his route running has been poor. The good news is that Hewitt has been improving slowly and he is still young enough that a #4 OF upside with his power is not out of the question.
Prediction: Due to his age Hewitt was Rule 5 eligible last year, and went unselected. There is almost no chance that the Phillies protect him this year. Hewitt is an interesting pick for a team looking to dream on upside and take a chance. It is unlikely that he gets picked, but there is still long term hope that Hewitt can still become a bench player in the big leagues.
Zach Collier – supplemental 1st round (#34 overall) – Age 22
Scouting Report: The story of Collier's career has been his time away from the field due to injury and suspension. In the field Collier is an average center fielder with an average arm but there is enough there to be a good center fielder at the major league level. At the plate Collier is a good hitter who began to show more power in 2012. Collier also has plus speed and has good base running instincts. Collier was sent to the AFL at the end of the season and has held his own to this point. It is hard to project anything more than being a solid 4th OF, but since he has missed so much time there is still a chance that he will actualize more of his tools with more ABs and become a starting CF.
Prediction: Collier has the tools to be a solid major league player, and has the potential to be better than that. Due to his missed time, Collier is still putting things together on the field, as evidenced by his power spike this season. Collier's performance in the AFL is the tipping point that likely guarantees him a spot on the 40-man, and a few more years of minor league plate appearances in the Phillies system. If he is not protected he compares well to Jiwan James in 2011 with Collier showing a bit more power, and would have a decent chance of selection in the Rule 5 but by no means a lock.
Jonathan Pettibone – supplemental 3rd round (#110 overall) – Age 22
Scouting Report: Pettibone ended 2012 in AAA, one step away from the majors. Pettibone's fastball is average and can touch slightly above with good sink, his change up is solid, and his slider is fringe average. Pettibone's plus control allows his pitches to play up, and he has the ceiling of a mid rotation starter and could be ready as soon as mid season 2013.
Prediction: Pettibone will be in contention for the #5 starter job out of spring training. This would make him one of the top players in the Rule 5 draft if he was available. He is a lock to be added to the 40-man roster and protected from the draft.
Kyle Hudson – 4th round (#116 overall) Baltimore Orioles – Age 25
Scouting Report/Prediction: Speed is Hudson's calling card and he isn't really a burner. He isn't a great hitter and is a solid org guy who may get another cup of coffee eventually. With the resigning of Derrick Mitchell there likely is not a place for Hudson in the org next year let alone worth protecting from the Rule 5.
Trevor May – 4th round (#136 overall) – Age 23
Scouting Report: May is built like a prototypical right handed power pitcher and he has the stuff to live up to it. He has a plus fastball, a slightly above average curveball, and an average change up. May has always struggled with his command and his walk rate was up in 2012 and his strikeout rate plummeted. May was also victimized by a large home run rate partially induced by the Reading ballpark as well as a change in pitching style. May has #3 starter upside if he can keep his control and a back end reliever if he doesn't.
Prediction: May is the former top prospect in the organization and hasn't lost a ton of what gave him that distinction. There is no way that May will not be added to the 40 man roster and protected.
Colby Shreve – 6th round (#196 overall) – Age 24
Scouting Report: The Phillies took a risk that Shreve would rebound from pre-draft Tommy John Surgery but his stuff never came back to what it was before. Shreve has an average fastball and secondary pitches that will flash average as well. Shreve has made himself into a groundball specialist, though his walk rate remains high and his strikeout rate has not been there against advanced hitter. Shreve profiles as a middle reliever/longman going forward.
Prediction: Shreve is a casualty of a numbers crunch, the Phillies have a ton of high upside right handed relievers making Shreve expendable. There is a chance that a team sees his pre-2012 strikeout rates and drafts him as a middle reliever where he should be a good value. If he is not drafted Shreve looks like a candidate to change organizations next year when he is a minor league free agent, as he has the ability to make a career in the bullpen it just doesn't look likely it will be with the Phillies.
Julio Rodriguez – 8th round (#256 overall) – Age 22
Scouting Report: JRod has a below average fastball but he has natural cutting movement. He has a big loopy curveball, a sharp slider, and a solid change up. His delivery has a ton of deception to it. JRod has good control but it is not plus, but despite all this he has missed bats at each level. After a shaky 2012, Rodriguez still has ability to be a #5 starter but his most likely outcome is as a middle reliever with the hope that his stuff plays up in the bullpen.
Prediction: Rodriguez is a close call when it comes to protecting. His stuff does not indicate a high upside, but he could a be a useful piece on the major league level. With a limited number of spots on the 40 man roster there are higher upside players needing protecting, not leaving a spot for Rodriguez. There is a chance that another team sees him as a middle reliever who could be a long man or #5 starter if needed.
Cody Overbeck – 9th round (#286 overall) – Age 26
Scouting Report/Prediction: Going into 2012, there was a chance that Overbeck could build on a good 2011 and seize a bench role in Philadelphia. Instead he struggled in AAA, and while he can play some third base he has been passed there and at his primary position of first base by better prospects. Overbeck was left unprotected and unclaimed a year ago and it appears that will be his fate again this year.
Troy Hanzawa – 16th Round (#496 overall)- Age 27
Scouting Report/Prediction: Hanzawa is an org middle infielder, incredibly valuable to the org to fill spots but that is the extent of it.
Jim Murphy – 17th round (#526 overall) – Age 27
Scouting Report/Prediction: Murphy has spent the last four years between CLW and LKW. His numbers suggest that he could put up a Ruf-esque season in Reading next year but he isn't a prospect, again a good org guy for the Phils, nothing wrong with that,
Steve Susdorf – 19th round ( #586 overall) – Age 26
Scouting Report/Prediction: Susdorf has been old for every level he has played at and while he has performed well, his bat doesn't profile well at any position. Susdorf may get a late season cup of coffee but he doesn't have the upside teams are looking for in the Rule 5 draft.
Michael Cisco – 36th round (#1096 overall) – Age 25
Scouting Report/Prediction: Cisco has a slightly below average fastball and a plus curveball, to go with a fringe average breaking ball he can through for strikes. He has good command but he doesn't miss bats. He is in a similar position to Shreve, he is caught behind higher upside relievers, a team desperate for a long man could pick him, but he is likely back to the LHV long man role.
2008 International Signings
Edgar Duran – Age 21
Scouting Report: Duran has had a quiet trek through the Phillies minor league system. Duran was signed as a glove first shortstop, he isn't elite with the glove, but he is more than capable at the position. Each year he has improved at the plate, and he has shown surprising power and good plate discipline and contact abilities. At only 21 years old he could still improve, even if he has to repeat a year in CLW.
Prediction: Duran is interesting, if drafted by a team it would set his development back a year because he won't hit on the major league level. But he could provide a glove as a back up middle infielder and is young enough to spend time in the minors developing. He is a close call for the Phillies and it will depend on how they handle free-agency. He is not a must protect, but if there is an extra spot he could receive it as a long term investment.
2009 Draft
Austin Hyatt – 15th round (#467 overall) – Age 26
Scouting Report: Hyatt has an average fastball and a below average slider, his main weapon is a plus change up. Hyatt has plus command and control but if he is a little bit off he gives up a ton of hits and fly balls. Hyatt was expected to have the season that Tyler Cloyd did, instead everything fell apart and his walk rate skyrocketed and his strikeout rate plummeted.
Prediction: If Hyatt had built on his 2011 he would be in consideration as a back of a rotation starter. The fact is that at 26 years old there is no upside left for Hyatt, he is what he is at this point in his career. Someone like Rodriguez is younger and has pitched better this year than Hyatt. There is no chance of Hyatt being protected and little chance of him being picked in the draft.

This morning I bid a fond farewell to the Southern (fried) Dharma Retreat Center of Hot Springs, North Carolina, leaving behind my little plastic bag of toiletries in their lovely Teacher's Cottage for some future archaeologist to dissect and discourse upon. Meaning I forgot to pack my dog-goned little bag with my toothbrush, deodorant, soap, shampoo, floss, nail clippers and all that kind of stuff in it. And my electric razor! Man, am I bummed.
But the retreat was a very cool one. Diversity was the name of the game this weekend. More women than men, which has got to be a first for a retreat I've run if not for Zen retreats in general. Two devout Christians stayed through the whole thing and sat just as hard as anybody else. A group, for once, not made up entirely of white folks. Motley heavy metal dudes mixed with middle aged ladies. Hearing the language of the Bodhisattvas spoken in that melodic lilting down home drawl. An astounding scene. A truly southern dharma retreat!
We did a ton of zazen, raked a bunch of leaves, cut some wood, talked, read bits of Joshu Sasaki's "Buddha is the Center of Gravity," ate spectacularly great food, walked and talked some more. Many corn muffins and beans were consumed. Many farts were stifled in the silence of the zendo. Demons were wrestled with and conquered, though K.O.s were scored on the demons' side, ka-blammo by the zendo doors. Poetry was exchanged and dead dogs duly mourned. Live Buddha cats were petted and purred. The sun shone. The rain rained. The wind howled and roared. Sexy white butted deer trotted down mountainsides followed by Carolina panthers. Doubts were raised about swallowing the Kool Aid from trusted teachers.
A splendid time was had by all.
Then I raced down the mountainside in my nephew's squeaking Dodge Avenger to Asheville to speak in a reconverted chapel designed to mourn those dead from AIDS and now transformed into a tranquil sitting space. Six people showed up. But two of them traveled three hours just to be there and all were serious practitioners who cared deeply.
Tomorrow the Deep South Leg of Kalpa Long Cassidy Tour '09 continues. On April 6, 2009 (Mon) at 7 pm I'll be at The Regulator Bookshop 720 Ninth Street, Durham, NC 27705. On April 7, 2009 (Tues) at 7:30 pm I'll do a Dharma Talk at the Zen Center of Chapel Hill, 5322 North Carolina Highway 86 (2.5 miles north of I-40 Exit 266) Chapel Hill, NC 27514. After that I'll be at the Nashville Zen Center. Then on to T for Tex-Ass. Details linked to your left as always. So take a look!<<<<<<<<
