McLouth and Miller next?

Ed Eagle reports on the progress of the Bucs playing for the Arizona Fall League. The article ends with this:

Fellow Curve teammates Jeff Miller and Nate McLouth have more than held their own against top competition. Miller has tossed seven scoreless innings with eight strikeouts in his four appearances. McLouth has batted .265 (9-for-34) with a pair of doubles and three RBIs in nine games.

"Miller and McLouth have been especially impressive," said Graham. "I like the fact that they are competing and having success at a level that is higher than the level that they have performed at during the season. Both of those guys are very tough mentally. This is a very good challenge for them.

The front office will add these two to the 40-man roster before November 20 unless they enjoy being ridiculed by the fans and the rest of the baseball-loving nation.
