The Prospect Thread II (McKay called up)

[JWK]

Would post the "it's happening" gif but we all know Buddy will put him on the bench so he can give Valaika and even Tony Wolters starts over him.

 

[King Mapes]

Uh oh...

Terrible news. Arguably the 2nd or 3rd best prospect in baseball. Personally I have him ranked 2nd, Keith Law crazy enough has him ranked 1.

He has played every inning of every game so far. Heh.

Almost makes up for Raimel Tapia having 14 plate appearances in 20 games this year.

 

[King Mapes]

Vlad to triple A. Finally...

 

[JWK]

Rockies promoted Brendan Rodgers to AAA.

Angels promoted Jo Adell to AA.

Fun time of the year

 

[SSF]

Pumped because that means i get to see Adell tomorrow and/or wednesday night.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Kyle Wright was promoted to Triple-A as well.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Kolby Allard (Braves #8 prospect) called up and will start tomorrow night against the Marlins.

Adell is so good.

 

[SSF]

Adell bats 2nd tonight after Jahmai Jones.

I guess Monte Harrison is the notable name for the jumbo shrimp.

Edit: just took a curve ball to the ribs in his first AB.
and i leave just before he hits a HR. stupid me

 

[rangerssharks414]

UCL sprain for Hunter Greene...

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

20 year old Luzardo called up to AAA.

If not for his tommy john in hs he would likely be called up to the pro team soon, but it's unlikely with his innings being limited.

 

[King Mapes]

Luzardo has big potential imo and one of the most underrated P prospects. I picked him up in a deep keeper league a few weeks ago and he's climbing the prospect board big time.

Same here, although the league isn't that that deep (it's @TootooTrain's league).

I'm in that league too, actually

This other league is one Tootoo is in as well, just deeper rosters.

As if his stuff wasn’t nasty enough, the way he hides the ball behind his head makes him damn near unhittable.

Watching him pitch is a treat. He's made hitters at every level look silly and incompetent.

I just hope for the sake of all things good that he stays relatively healthy going forward. He's already had 1 tjs, and it's a lot harder to come back from more than that.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Geez, I did not realize they got that kid in the Madson-Doolittle trade, which has already turned out nicely for OAK with Treinen. Could end up being a huge steal for OAK.

Which team are you?

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

I can't wait for the shitstorm when the Jays send him down for 3 weeks to start 2019 for service time reasons.

(and I'd do the same thing if I was the Jays)

 

[TheBeastCoast]

....He might be the best minor league hitter ever. Like AAA pitchers are honest to god terrified to put a ball anywhere in the zone.

 

[chaosrevolver]

That was an absolute moonshot.

His patience at the plate is outstanding as well.
