Green at 2B?

Is that a sign of a loss in faith in him at SS or trying to take some pressure off of him? I think it’s just about every Around the Minors Green is being put under the microscope (me included), is he the most criticized prospect in a while?

Green

He’s going to stick at SS until at least through AAA – He’s starting to heat up a bit. I think he’ll get promoted to Midland late this season if the OPS gets above 800 (and it definitely should with the Summer Heat)

Nope, probably nothing to it at all
Grant Green started the game at second but moved back to short late in the game.

Ryan Ortiz is the real deal.

Probably

Most players get a bump in their isolated power playing in the Cal league.

Optimistic scouts compared him to Mark Grace out of college

And the Grace comp has been given to approximately 132,455 players with good hit tool and strong plate discipline who haven’t hit for much power yet.

I'm assuming Parker is Mormon, he went to BYU

Not sure why that matters, but, in terms of discipline it might help. Maybe I’m making a sweeping generalization but the Mormons playing sports all seem to be well disciplined athletes (lets leave Jeff Kent out for this argument).

by BBANGUS on Jun 9, 2010 2:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

I actually wouldn't mind him being like Jeff Kent

Since Jeff Kent = borderline Hall of Famer.

Kent is a no doubt first Ballot HoFer.

"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

by Syphon on Jun 9, 2010 3:00 PM PDT up reply actions  

agreed...but...

I was more referencing Jeff Kent being a grade-A douchebag.

I am headed to Chicago to visit my sister next weekend.

Gonna try to get to Geneva for a Cougars game. Will probably go the next Sat.
