MINOR LEAGUE/PROSPECTS Thread

Maybe because you spend most of your time suggesting homo dialogue and posting emoji like , , , and .

Just sayin'.

 

If Kershaw really is down, looks like Cotton may be next in line as that would be regular rest for him on Friday.

 

Pull him out of the Future's Game?

 

I'm late to the party but that girl could get the strokes; but yeah, she's probably a 6 lol

 

So I'm crabby because I point out that your tendencies lean towards the Broke Back side?

 

Damn rain stopped Ryu's rehab start today!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Calhoun had been doing really well, but his AVG is still way low for him and he's been in a bit of a mini slump. I think he's going to spend the whole year in AA as he's not been as consistent as he is capable of being.

 

You were close.

He misplaced the Golden Girls box set.

 

Before you all ask, no the club does not have a ready prospect to step in and take CF if Joc is hurt. Trayce and Kike are the only real options right now.

 

Saw a piece about Toles perhaps helping at some point in the 2nd half

But yeah I'd expect Trayce to take CF now, that's his natural spot

 

Probably looking at Venable (yikes) as the OF'er called up not necessarily a CF'er. O'Koyea Dickson has been on fire and he played LF tonight where he hit his 8th and is now hitting .358. not holding my breath that he'll get his shot but he's a nearly ready prospect

 

You need to make an Angela Lansbury emoji for CBD...

 

He has really come along this season. When he was first starting out in the org, I remember a few people thought he could be a big time sleeper, but his numbers never really came around. Maybe he is a late bloomer, but I'm not keeping my hopes up.

 

There are plenty of guys who get it late in their careers but with O'Koyea I doubt he gets a legit shot here. Trade fodder perhaps.

 

.... that, and Barbra Streisand cancelled her concert there bc she was afraid of being assassinated in a NC bathroom by a tranny....

 

Last season was a great MiLB year for the top 30 in the org, now it's the guys on the outside that are taking these huge leaps;
Stewart: Obv
Stripling: Great return from TJ
Dickson .358/.420/.650, 32 HR Pace, K less than 20%. Still only 5'11
Bawcom Sub 1.00 WHIP, 2.41 ERA across AA, AAA this year
Dayton: Had been doing great, but has had a bad couple weeks.
Oaks: Has been one step behind Stewart the whole season and I have heard reports of folks liking him more. Got walloped in his first AAA start, but he's now played at 3 levels this year.
Toles: Picked up off the scrap heap. Former top prospect putting up a .333/.381/.509 year, K'ing 15% and has begun to hit more HR's after a move to AA.
Garlick: Has turned some heads as a potential late round find. .288/.353/.515 line, 13 HR's across 2 levels. After a slow start in AA promotion, he has begun to heat up.
Hansen: Having a nice start in Ogden which is already leagues ahead of last year. Has huge upside, but 2nd rnd pick fell flat on his face last year. Needs a good start and has to get to GL this season.

Those players may not all equate to quality major leaguers, but being that they are or were all out of the Top 30 when the season started is a huge deal to a team that needs to make some trades to shore up the pen. Not to mention it gives the FO more ammo to pluck higher upside players they find in other orgs where they could potentially sell high on these guys. Due to the Dodgers also having a good year within their top 30, they have lots of assets needed to make deals without potentially hurting the top 5-10 in the system.
