Vitters & Carpenter to Daytona; Cashner to Tennessee

I still think it had more to do with getting the all-star games out of the way before the promotions were made (although for Barney at AA, he's going to miss his I believe)

More with the draft and player signings, I believe.

Well what would you know :P

If it was their intention to promote him midseason, I don't understand how they looked at his numbers a month ago, after he tore up May, and thought he needed more at bats, then watched his last month of sub700 OPS and realized that he was ready now.

 

I don't think they're rushing him. Many thought he was the most polished high school bat in the 2007 draft and two guys taken near him (Moustakas and Heyward) started the year in A+. If not for the hand injury last year, I think he too would have started at Daytona.

The local radio "news break" mentioned Vitters' promotion, and called him "Cuba's first round draft pick".

Aw man, I was hoping to see Vitters one more time when the Chiefs came back to Peoria. :(

Yeah, bad timing. I'm going to the Peoria/Kane county game Friday night and was hoping to see Vitters, too. But it looks like Aramis will be playing 3b for Peoria that night, which helps a little.

I'll miss it, if you get tickets behind home plate, you'll prob. see Oneri and/or Randy Bush. Maybe Hendry. I obviously wouldn't bother them while they're working (although plenty of people would recognize Hendry, Oneri and Randy would not recognized by 99.9% of the people).

yep, all 3 are regulars in section 108. That said, I think the Chiefs will likely have a packed house this weekend ($5 seats on Saturday), so these guys may do seats in the press box instead.
