I wonder if Cole Mathis goes to the AFL to try and make up for some at bats.  I know it's usually someone more in the AA adjacent stage of their careers but some Low A guys do go (Zyhir Hope went last year I know).

He is going to the AFL. Arizona Phil also confirmed Ed Howard is going.

Sounds like JP Wheat and Luis Martínez-Gómez are too.

Yeah, same!  Kinda weird having Az Phil reports with Ryan Jensen and Ed Howard being main names.  Seems eternity ago that those guys were fresh 1st rounders we dreamed were prospects.  Kinda bizarre to have Jensen, Howard, and Hartshort in the same AzPhil recap.
