He is technically a prospect. Not his fault he's rotting in low A when he raking (or as you said.. the politics). He is 24. Usually the ending/cut off of a "prospects" age (depending on who you ask) is 25-26. He might not be a top prospect (one of those guys you keep an eye on), but he is a prospect. Hell, he is one year older than Kevan Smith who was drafted this year and is in Bristol. (who I, as well as others here, like alot) As terrible as Bradley Salgado is (and yes I'm being harsh on him) he is still a prospect cause of his age. Goes both streets.
"As terrible as Bradley Salgago is"? How can you call a young player (19) who is fresh out of high school, knocked the cover off the ball all spring and has oustanding defense "terrible"? You obviously don't know too much about him or you would know what he is capable of. Yes, his avg is not what it should be right now but he puts his bat on the ball almost every at bat and during this last losing (2 and 5) road trip, brought his average up 40 points. He's young, plays with guys 3-5 yrs older than him, has no college ball experience and is the starting shortstop. Probably not "terrible".
