    I see where Greenjackets are coming to Greensboro this Thursday- Sunday and was hoping to see him pitch. If anyone knows when he would be starting, please post up.

    He has been lights out the last 2 months. I'm hearing that the Giants are still not pleased with his pitches other than the heater. Could he be a closer in the making?

    That's strange, when I saw him pitch, his off speed stuff was the best that I've seen.

    Caldwell County fans: When is Madison pitching..and Kevin- tell Madison to leave me some tickets.

    I don't care if he throws a "hair" ball, as long as he gets kids out. Keep it up big guy!

    I agree once he gets to advanced levels like Triple A he is going to have to have good secondary pitches. But to answer the question on when he is scheduled to start he pitched yesterday 8-3 so figure every 5 days unless Augusta uses a 6 man rotation he would pitch the 8th a Friday. Hope that helps some

    Madison's Schedule

    Thanks for the kind posts that you guys have put up about Madison. If you really want to know more about the man instead of the pitcher there was a great article in the Augusta Chronicle Sunday 8-3 titled "Showing Character" I hate to brag but it tells a story of a pretty good kid.


    Anyway his pitching schedule is Saturday at Greensboro. And also on Thursday 8-21 he will pitch in K-town
    I hope a bunch of folks show up, look me up, and buy me a hot dog, except of course for Braves, I will have to buy his.

    Hope to see you at the park.

    That is exactlly correct. The club rewards him for fly ball, and ground ball outs, as well as pick offs. And ZERO for strikeouts. He still has 125 of those though, I guess he tried to hit the bat but missed sometimes. LOL
