Wow, that Tennessee lineup...

 

Holy crap that's insane. Through nine games the team has a .360/.424/.606/1.030 collective line. Seven regulars have at least a 1.000 OPS with six of those being 1.100.

Apparently I need to. Does anyone have the MILB TV package? If so, have they been streaming any of the Tennessee games?

 

They mostly stream AAA games, from what I can tell.

I would love someone to just take Byrd's salary off our hands and put Brett Jackson in there

 

Someone with more knowledge of the minors than me - is Brett Jackson actually major league ready?

I actually really don't know much about the minors. Ive just heard and read about him. I think they said he should be ready for 2012

That is pretty much worthless. Who wants to watch Bobby Scales and Fernando Perez?

Jackson still has things to work on, but it would not surprise me if he's ready this summer.

 

And castro is amazing.

Depends on which facet of his game you're talking about. He's a good defender in CF and has enough speed to cause trouble on the base paths. In those respects, he's ready.

 

As for his bat...hard to tell. He's handling AA about as well as can be expected, but I'd like to see how he looks against pitchers with more advanced offspeed stuff in AAA before seeing him in the majors. He probably could play in the majors now, but he'd have a lot of growing pains along the way.

Well, Byrd can easily be a very valuable player. He just has no business hitting above #6 on this team.
