Nice catch. Wasn't listed in the AZL Transactions. Sneaky.

I like this development. That team is must follow every night now.

Same with Hanleth Otano, which is much more surprising given his performance.

The Arizona League team won its division in the first. I'm assuming they are adding prospects to the roster to get some playoff experience. That seems to be the org. way, even in the Arizona League.

I was advocating Ramon Beltre to move up since the beginning of the year. Surprised he is still down there. (another year at that)

I don't know about anyone else, but I think I am more excited by seeing some of the signings from the DSL start to hit the states, and not only a guy like Micker who was a big time signing, but guys who didn't get seven figure bonuses. What a huge shot in the arm for the system to have these guys start filling up our minor league system when we went for a period of years with literally no talent coming from Latin America.

 

I'm surprised they didn't bring Carlos Perez over instead of Otano. Maybe they just have too many catchers already on the AZL team.

It really is exciting. The system has made huge strides, but hopefully it can come even farther.

Oh I know we have work to do, but the system has always lacked depth. Seeing all of this young competition come in is just great for our future. Even if it only means one or two additional guys make the majors, it is huge for us.

Sigh.

Is it wise to bring him up now?

Correct me if I am wrong here. We sign a guy out of high school or less, we control him for 5 years in the minors before we either add him to the 40 man roster or risk losing him in the draft.

Bringing him up now means that five year clock is now running, so we lose a year of control all for having him on the AZL roster for 15 games or so.

The Sox would know by the time Feliz is 22 whether he's worth protecting or not.

Did Adolfo ever return? Did he had a single home run all year?

He returned August 3 and went 2-4. August 5 he had one at-bat and hasn't played since. Still homerless.
