Tyler was assigned to AA Birmingham for the beginning of the 2009 season. He is part of a lineup with other big time prospects Beckham, Viciedo, Allen and Shelby. It is a very exciting team.
After the first week (3 games played for Tyler) Flowers is 5-12 with 2 walks (500 obp) with a homer a stolen base. OPS is 1250.
Behind the plate, teams have been testing him alot since hes relatively new to catching. He did throw out one guy.
Pretty good start for FLowers and the Barons
