July 27, 20196 yr He will be up to 40 games this weekend at AA and continues to ear it up. I would think he will get bumped up to Charlotte as they will only have about 30 games left so he finishes in AAA.
July 27, 20196 yr Probably. AAA numbers are probably juiced up more than AA stats because they are using the same juiced MLB ball. I wonder how much AAA stats are even used to analyze players now.
July 27, 20196 yr Likely to get a better read from the Arizona Fall League...(although Engel managed to put up good numbers there.) Definitely face higher quality pitching on a daily basis.
July 27, 20196 yr If it were up to me, I'd promote Robert, Madrigal and Collins to the Majors. There will be a learning curve in MLB so they might as well get started now. The Sox are finished for the year and playing these guys won't hurt a bit. With Cease already up the fans could really see what the rebuild is all about. It might also convince a major free agent pitcher the Sox have the talent to win. One other thing, by letting go of some older guys, the clubhouse might take on a fun infectious feel. The last 2 months of losing baseball can be a real drag.

Especially with 18 games out of 61 remaining against CLE and MN.
