I really think he'd do OK. He already had 42 games last year in Lucy Land and hit .302. Time for a bigger challenge. <br /><br />They smartly skipped him past Brooklyn in 2016 to get him a full season (well, 111 games, anyway) in 2016.<br /><br />Get Becerra in Binghamton too. <br /><br />Tebow:) ?

Pretty exceptional.

I can kind of understand the emotional side -- wanting to be proven right -- but once a player starts performing isn't it in their best interest to promote the best available talent, not necessarily based upon their draft position status?Reese Kaplanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12993445356545875409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-54351180478292616562017-02-04T10:41:22.143-05:002017-02-04T10:41:22.143-05:00Big difference between him and den Dekker, Mack, i...Big difference between him and den Dekker, Mack, is that his strikeout rate is much better. <br /><br />That said, he needs to have a huge year in 2017 to push towards the bigs.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-72302500962875724702017-02-04T10:06:15.971-05:002017-02-04T10:06:15.971-05:00Tom -

He was a late round 5-year college boy who, age wise, is already in the last year he can qualify being of prospect age. He absolutely raked in his senior year which got him this pick and so far he has hit well at every level.<br /><br />What I don't like is his size, his lack of speed, his debatable defense and his lack of power. <br /><br />I compare him to a guy like Matt den Dekker. He'll hit .400 in the PCL, but then what?<br /><br />I agree with you Tom that his only professional option will probably be as a UT outfielder and pinch hitter.Mack Adehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09730548449011685243noreply@blogger.com
