Nice. We should be able to get a good bit more video of him now that he's in Iowa.

Chris Morel over the last three weeks is at .206/.311/.349 with a 13.5% K rate and an 18.5% walk rate. Obviously he needs to start hitting (though the Southern League is so pitching friendly that's an 89 wRC+), but those are very nice BB/K numbers for him. If he can live anywhere near there, with his tools he's gonna really be a guy.
