By the way, Tyler Webb with AAA Yankees org. 2-0, 5.11 ERA 12.1 IP

wow thanks so much for taking the time to do this!

[dogknot17@yahoo.co]

It is good to see Newman and Hayes hitting a little bit. I expect them to be up in a few years as contracts run out on the Pirates.



I wasn't a fan of the Cole Tucker pick. But he needs to start hitting.

[ChitownBucco]

Tucker's bat seems to be waking up a bit after a slow start.



has a hit in 9 out of last 10 games



was surprised at his 19 SB's didn't know he was that fast

[psuinpgh21]

Wondering where Johnny Barbato would show up? Could just replace Webb with him.  Didn't consider Bostick or Danny Ortiz for the poll or John Bohrman.



A couple of surprises early- starters- the entire WV rotation (Vieaux, Marvel, Cederlind, M. Anderson), Pedro Vasquez (Brad), Tanner Anderson, Alex McRae (Altoona)



Hunter Owen/Ty Moore/Trae Arbet (WV), Casey Hughston/Logan Hill (Bradenton), Edwin Espinal (Altoona)

Joe and Luplow both seem to like AA better than A+. We need one of them to establish themselves.

The FSL, especially Bradenton, isn't hitter friendly. Really windy and the ballparks are designed for MLB spring training.

[ChitownBucco]

Bradenton scores 20 tonight



Tucker misses the cycle by a single... 2 hr's a three bagger and a double with 7 rbi's



got his avg up to .285 after hitting .350 thus far in May
