Yes, and the reason was never disclosed to us.

No joke, but Hector Santiago is back on a MiLB deal: https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/06/white-sox-sign-hector-santiago-2.html

Matt Thompson got a long profile in the Houston newspaper over the weekend as a local prep award winner.

Good lookin kid.

Curt Bloom on tonight's Barons broadcast mentioned that Basabe's current injury issue is his quad. Said we will get some more injury information in a few days. Wonder if that's Lambert related.

Yermin Mercedes just smacks the ball wherever he goes. How come he is never, ever discussed?

He's super fun to watch hit but he's a bad-bodied 26 year old beating up Double-A pitching and he's a below average receiver. Maybe he's an offensive-first backup or 3rd catcher?

Collins and Mercedes would make one hell of a townball catching platoon!

Good for him. It seems like he's been in AA for 10 years.

Incompetence org gonna incompetence. But it's not surprising. Looks like Bryce Bush to 3B is officially over too.

Vaughn still in Kannapolis. What a waste of time. #9 prospect in mlb beating up pitchers of low quality.

had such high hopes, best of luck to the kid.

Kodi Medieros looks to have been moved to pen.  Had been terrible starting/swing role.  Putting together a nice string since.  Still just 23 years old.

Been quite a while since he has started. He has been lights out in the pen, ERA under 2.00 I believe. This was discussed in a thread somewhere and someone had those stats.
