Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 7-22-25

Speaking of this, I was reading the ESPN article on biggest trade deadline rental impacts and I couldn’t believe they didn’t have the Sutcliffe trade in there. That was crazy. He went like 16-1.. He was amazing after that trade.

If Caissie's K-rate is such a red flag,  then teams should be willing to instead accept some of the other top-100 prospects on the farm. 

The kid is going to hit a great deal of HR in the major leagues.  I want those to be for the Cubs.

Sure seems like he's a polarizing prospect, which you can see with him still not being a top 25 prospect in any major publication, despite his pedigree.

Clearly the Marlins love him (and it sounds like the Royals like him) but it sounds like the Twins don't care for him.
