Pretty awesome day. Sorry I had to work. From what I've seen, Oppor is a legit dude. Once you take away all the promotions, I think Oppor is Top 10 in the system. But I always support upside over floor.

Hagen Smith with 6bb 7K in 4IP. It’s early, but the control has been more sophomore year than junior year from him. Stuff has been electric though, so I need to practice patience.

Abraham Nunez HR. Would be nice if he’s a prospect. Fairly high bonus out of the DR. Paddy hitting on anyone in his last 2-3 years would be a peasant surprise.

This is what I was hoping for. He needs to get back to who he was before becoming so focused on hitting for power. He is at his best with an all-fields approach. They’re gonna have to change his swing to get there.

He has toned down his swing and changed his approach. In his Junior year, he started pulling the ball more, seeking to become a power hitter. He stayed with that approach with the Sox. This year, he's going to right more. He bunting. And when he gets on, he tries to steal at literally every opportunity. It's an approach more suited to his skillset. Still not a likely major leaguer, but if you squint you can see how that would happen for him. I wish him all the luck.

I don’t hate Vaughn. Seems like a nice person. But he does make it hard.

Abraham Nunez with a double. His first hit in A ball.

Bonemer in the game today. Walks in his first at bat.

Zavala’s been hitting the ball hard for the last two weeks. He killed a double yesterday. Hopefully he can get on a roll here cuz the D is legit.

Reyes dealing tonight. 9 K through 5 scoreless.

Caden Connor bumped up to Birmingham. Odd considering how well Galanie has been hitting.

Abraham Nunez up from ACL.

No Bonemer for Kanny. Hopefully he’s okay after the HBP.

Keener has Bummer levels of batted ball luck. Nothing is getting hit hard, but it’s all finding holes.

Arxy Hernandez with a BOMB. He has been swinging it this week. Don’t know if he’s really a prospect, but he is going a level a year, so he’s not not a prospect.

Not a great sign for Colson. If the Sox expected him up any time soon, they probably wouldn’t be acquiring a player in the same essential bucket — big left side defender with K issues.

Worth a shot, I guess. Lotta K’s. Walks some. Positional versatility. I think it’s probably low risk, low reward. In 3 years, he’ll be Maton, but churn, baby, churn.

Jerry had to give up his favorite player on the team: Cash Considerations.

I love both Quero and Baldwin. Vargas hit it pretty hard too. I am ready to move on from Vaughn and Robert and start getting players in who want to be here.

Amaya released when Meidroth heals. Same for Palacios with Tauchman. They seem to love that Maton hits lefty. I would dump him for Elko, but they don’t seem to feel that way. Montgomery and Teel struggling have given Maton an mlb job.

Corey Julks swinging it well in AAA. Probably better than some of their options in Chi.

Double for Colson. He looks better at the plate, but has been hitting into some tough luck. Still not there yet, tho

Elko is so good defensively at first. Great feet puts him in position to save a lot of errors over there.

Dunn is not an mlb option. It’s all off speed and fear of contact. 4 bb so far.

Glad to see Colson hit the ball hard to the opposite field even though it was an out. Key to his funk imho is more approach than swing.
