BP's 2007 Great Leap Forward

Geovany Soto entered the year as the best catching prospect in the system, but he became one of the better ones in the game after leading the minor leagues in slugging percentage while hitting a monstrous .353/.424/.652 at Triple-A Iowa.

 

Honorable Mention: Sinker/slider specialist Billy Petrick began the year in High-A, but moved through three levels on the way to the majors. Only 20 years old, righty Jose Ceda is big and throws in the mid-90s. When not dealing with some elbow soreness, he was untouchable at Low-A Peoria, allowing just 14 hits in 46 1/3 innings with 66 strikeouts.

 

Not shocking...I'm guessing their Two Steps Back won't be shocking either.

is that 14 hits/66 Ks in 46.3 stat correct? holy crap

 

EDIT: I now see why so few hits -- he walked everyone else

He didn't give up a hit in his final 25 regular season innings between Mesa (rehab) and Peoria.
