Eh it's just his BABIP evening out.

I haven't seen any of his defensive play this year, does it look like he can stick at SS at least for a couple years?

I dont think we need to see two straight months of very good performance. I think a couple more weeks and bring him up. Give him a shot to prove he can stick at SS. Maybe bring Teel up in a couple weeks as well if his work behind the plate looks good. Braden should be getting promoted to AA pretty soon as well.

That might be Colson's best night at the plate of his whole career! 4/4, 2 HRs, 2 doubles and a walk. Damn...Fuller is awesome. If Colson keeps it up for a couple more weeks, call him up and let him play at SS and 3B.

What's his OPS since he came back?

Call up the savage!

It's ok....if he's making contact and high EV it will eventually find the holes. This is good. Alot better than 3 Ks a game.

Good. Focus on contact right now...we know the power is there.

Super impressive at his age. Should be in High A soon. I hope he can stick at SS.

That's a huge disaster if he's just a closer. We need good rotation pieces.

Jerry is that you?

Yep that would be a good idea. If he can have a good 3 weeks or so and his swing is consistently good with lower Ks, bring him up and put him at SS to evaluate how long he can stick there.

Very encouraging....go Colson!

That wouldn't be a rush. He will probably be in AA by this June or July so I think next June for MLB debut is realistic if he keeps playing well. The key thing is what happens to his BA and K% when he hits AA. I think that may require some adjustment but hopefully not too long.

That's really pathetic that the Pirates spent 5m more than us.

Nah...many/most high end prospects will encounter significant failure at some point. He has to learn to adjust, make changes and fight his way out of it.

Lol

BABIP is also very high though. Let's see his stats when it normalizes.

Great job Robert!

I'm glad he is getting alot of one on one time with Fuller. He's certainly helped with swing decisions with the MLB club.

That suggests his recent surge will continue. Hopefully long enough so that we can get some good offers.

@Chicago White Sox was right on Meidroth. He has maintained incredible OBP and according to FG, defense is good too at 2B. Dude has 0.4 fWAR in only 11 games which is absolutely insane for someone with no power. If he can stay healthy, even if he doesn't keep up that pace, he could still easily put up somewhere around a 3 WAR season. It's been forever since we had that kind of production at 2B.

IIRC fangraphs said Braden's ETA is 27 but I think 26 may be more realistic. I certainly expect him to reach AA in perhaps a couple months.

Grades on our picks so far. Barron.....D Harvey.....F Bryant......F Jones........B+ Robinson.....F

Now a 6th round WR in the 3rd. Royals and Noel were there you dumbfuck.
