Tracy making the most of his demotion so far, 3 for 3 with a double in his first game at Iowa.

We do need a 3rd baseman.

Ugly day for Peoria. Yeesh.

Lee needs to get his bat going bigtime.

Lee needs to get his bat going bigtime.

 

Minor League Splits suggests that he's been unlucky, but even with his luck neutralized, his power numbers are pretty bad. I'm also a bit worried about his recent trend of racking up errors, although he made his fair share last season in Boise.

 

Considering he's 19 years old and in Peoria, these sorts of bumps in the road are to be expected. He should have plenty of time to figure things out.

He's 19. Have some patience. Not everyone's going to be Starlin Castro. He's way ahead of where he "should" be developmentally-wise. Give him a full season at Peoria before you judge.

I guess Jung's luck finally ran out and his control issues caught up on him.

[davell]

Only reason I say anything like that about Lee is because I am higher on him than most around here actually. I invision him and Castro as our 1-2 punch for a long, long time. I don't doubt he'll get it together at all, I just want it to be sooner than later.
