April 16, 200917 yr There's really something to be said for keeping all those kids together and in a winning/confidence-building environment. It's better for the organization and for their development...when they come to the big leagues together (2009-2011), they will already be very comfortable with each other and used to the idea of winning almost every game. It's perfect, I think. I would rather promote them directly to Chicago from AA, rather than sending them through Charlotte first.
April 16, 200917 yr QUOTE (DBAHO @ Apr 16, 2009 -> 10:43 AM) Brandon Allen needs to be promoted to Charlotte. He will be, but let's not go do something like that a week into the season.
April 16, 200917 yr QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 16, 2009 -> 12:03 PM) He will be, but let's not go do something like that a week into the season. Well my point is that I think he should have started the season in AAA. He clearly proved last season that he's done well enough in AA ball so far, so I don't really see the point of him repeating there, even if it's only for half a season.
April 16, 200917 yr I don't think so, he still needs to work on his plate discipline and cut down on K's. He struck out 41 times in about 150 AB's last year in AA. If he cuts that down this year though, he should rise quickly.
