Seems like a lot of inflated hitting stats down there

You mean you have a AAA player playing in A and he is dominating? Dude is playing his 4th season in A ball.....I think he's ready to make the jump George lol.

he's a 40 rated player with 40 contact and 49 power. I don't look at age, I look at overall/potential for their level. I don't buy into the 24 year old 20/20 guy should be playing AAA ball, he's a R-A ball player at best

a 20/20 is a released player at best

Oh ya I'm not really knocking where you're putting him. But this is like putting a MLB player into AA. He's gonna crush it. This dude is fodder so it doesn't matter but I don't think it speaks to inflated minors numbers. However, numbers are trending up and like Corey said I think it's the park. I'll have a Winter Meeting topic to normalize minor league parks this offseason to curb some of this silliness.

Defense is great and all but if he's a complete liability at the plate he isn't worth it to me. I don't like giving up potential runs and his defense isn't saving enough runs that he could potentially produce.

Defense is underrated- especially from a cost/ performance standpoint.

I got this guy for free on a minor league deal and hes about to put up 4 war

Lol I saw that. I was going to post but to me a major injury is probably minimum 2 months. 4 weeks sucks to lose him for but it's not major IMO.

When Winterfell won’t go away it’s major to me!

Hanging around, hanging around. Team's got alligator blood. Can't get rid of them.

Been hanging around Bama for a month or so. Maybe the boys can take 2 of 3 tomorrow and get this thing interesting down the stretch

Spitters take 2 of 3 from Miami but still 2.5 back of the bEAST lead.

also still 2.5 back of the final wild card.

team has shown progress this year as we threw a bunch of young guys out there to the wolves and they've responded well. the rest of September will be interesting as we have 3-4 series against other division leaders.
