Hagen back and starting for Charlotte. 🙏

Billy had a nice stand-up triple in his first AB. He's come back strong from the IL stint.

Carlson adds a double.

In my best NBA Jam voice: He’s heating up!

Carlson was super hot before he got hurt. Will be interesting to see how the bat develops

I would have a strong bump in my overall life outlook if that young man turned the corner today.

So my prayers are with yours.

I just don't know if I have a typical Hagen start in me after watching Shane Smith yesterday.

Carlson finishes 2-3 with a double, triple, and 2 walks. His one out was a sac fly. Good day for him.

Kanny offense is very fun when it's clicking and they should see a couple reinforcements next month too.

He had a pop out, but your point remains. Really nice day for him.

HR Boston Smith. I do not know what to make of him. Lowish round senior sign acquired for Mead. He hit like a mf his last year in college and his first full year as a pro. Surprisingly athletic and, although they mostly use him in the of, he's not horrible as a catcher. Rocketed up 3 levels this year. At this point, just on production, you have to put him in the Top 30 of the system, right? But I'm not sure the median outcome is even an mlb player.

I have him firmly in the top 20 and that’s post draft. He checks a lot of boxes for me, but hesitant to rank him too highly because none of the larger prospect publications have really jumped on him yet.

Yermin Mercedes syndrome.

I guess no Hagen today?

Yeah, it feels too good to be true. He's not old for AA.

The trepidation reminds me of Karl Pagel, back in the day. Hit 90 HRs for the Cubs' upper levels over 3 seasons, and they gave him 3 big league plate appearances over 2 seasons.

I think the plan is for him to be on the Tanner McDougall path, so maybe we see him come in relief.

I open the Birmingham boxscore and ask myself who is this Left-Fielder Smith with a homer, 2 hits and 2 walks today? Well it's the same as the catcher Smith.
Good gracious.
Call him up (or move him up if Charlotte is a requirement).

Good players are just moving faster these days. If they are ready, they are ready.

Hagen Smith can’t stop walking people, so that’s great.

It's looking like a horrible pick.

Watching Charlotte. Pereira with 5 strike outs today. Ouch!

At this point I wouldn’t be that upset if they tried to capitalize on his pedigree and ship him off somewhere. I’m not convinced he will ever throw enough strikes to be a quality MLB pitcher.

Yeah, especially considering all the studs who were picked after him.

Not that I’m prospect hugging, but please don’t trade Carlson!!
