Did anyone expect this kind of thing out of Stephen Parker? He’s really hot right now.

Well he was a 5th round pick..

and OPS 1.000+ in every hear he played in college. Struggled in Kane last year but has really found it this year in Stockton. He’s as always has good plate discipline.

"Carter's 25-game hitting streak isn't any normal streak. He's 46 for 97 (.474 average) during the run, adding 16 walks and compiling 81 total bases in the process. I'm out of superlatives for what he's doing." - Kevin Goldstein

He's also 22 in a hitter-friendly High-A league

Not super super old, but for a fifth-round pick with a patience-and-power pedigree, it’s not really the most surprising thing. I’d like to see him AA soon.

On a side note, it feels sad when I have to note a guy like a month older than me is probably too old to be in High-A ball.

we in the hurtin ballplayers binness. and cousin, binness is a boomin.
