Benyamin Bailey singled to RF for his first stateside hit

 

HR for Rutherford.  He's an honorary rightfielder this evening.

Burger was the one who was pulled, not Sheets

 

Rutherford bomb

Sheets walked on 4 pitches.  Seems hitterish.

Thank you to all who update these threads. Really missed following MiLB.

 

Krogman looks excellent.  Nice little leg kick.  It would be nice if he's a piece.

Where was Krogman committed to again?

Same.  I’m hoping Bonds-like OPS once he gets to CHA ballpark and we basically can’t hold him down any longer

I'm hoping for a Bonds-like OPS out of our player as well

The Charlotte outfielders are sensing opportunity.

Missouri State, I believe.

That swing reminds me a lot of ohtani albeit a bigger leg kick. Looking forward to following him more. I don't recall him even making it to AZL games after drafting, crazy watching that 2019 class just in kanny.

Is Krogman a HS we drafted super late that we practically stole from college cuz everyone else thought he was going so they didn't pick him, ala Bush? 

Can Rutherford play CF?

Yeah, that draft saw a bunch of high schoolers get signed we didn't expect, Krogman and Logan glass especially. Though Bush had a bit more on him that made him seem like an unlikely sign (I feel like he was a top 300 guy, not sure Krogman was. But Krogman was a high schooler in the 34th round so it was unlikely, and he looks super interesting.

I don’t believe he has the arm for it. He was drafted as a CF.

His swing kind of reminds me of Kole Calhoun.  I like the aggressiveness he swings with.
