    http://www.vivaelbirdos.com/2013/1/17/3884810/jose-abreu-cuba-baseball-stats He also had 3 HR and a 1.145 OPS in 25 ABs in the WBC this year. http://www.whiteboardbusiness.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/rod_tidwell.jpg

    Just saw that too. [expletive] it, sign him, who cares.

    So Jose Abreu, he of the nearly 2.000 OPS cuban baseball season, has defected according to Jonah Keri. I haven't seen any numbers on him since that bizarre 2010 or 2011 season or whatever it was. Is he still megahyped?

    god, stanton's age 20 AA season was monstrous. if we had a guy putting up numbers like that, i probably wouldnt be able to contain myself. The good news comparison wise is that it was his second go through the league. It will be interesting to see what javy does next year, assuming he's in AA again. because, he's a year older than giancarlo was, but his first pass in AA has been better than Stanton's first run was.

    If Stanton didn't seem so fragile, I would be willing to do Javy+almora or soler for him. But right now, no way. Plus, we've seemingly hitched our wagons to these four guys ... might as well ride it out at this point.

    Brockmeyer? One of the few front to back wipers in the game.

    Once you take into effect string theory, you realize Barney's quantum batting average is league average

    You have to take global warming into effect. Also adjust for the discovery of the Higgs boson

    As fun as this year has been on the farm, next year is going to be real exciting. We should have a good idea by the end of the season if all four of baez, almora, soler and bryant will be major leaguers, not to mention possibly seeing edwards or pierce johnson as high as AA if things go well.

    ive been saying that the whole time and im not even convinced.

    law probably caught lambo eating at a [expletive] olive garden, or maybe he cheated as RISK once

    I'm honestly not sure you know what "moving the goalposts" means outside of some generic insult. i appropriate insults for my own usage

    Kyle, not your best day on the Internet. Hopefully you fared better on the other 17 messageboards you inundate.

    That "#1 prospect" wasn't even top 100 in BA (Hanley was though at #19) and Fossum had graduated in 2002 ETA: In fact, none of the 4 ever appeared on a top 100 in BA. Maybe in a few years, none of our prospects will be either? Consider these goalposts moved, my friends!

    Baez now 4-for-4 after an RBI double. 4-for-4, 2 doubles, 2 runs, 3 RBI and SB. We're in the 5th inning. He's now up to .277 in AA.

    Rizzo

    imb replied to Banedon's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    I still believe this guy is gonna be doing a few 280/375/500s relatively soon
  22. imb
    The guy Baez and crew rocked tonight is a consensus top-50 prospect with an era below 1 this year, by the way Baez now 3-for-3, also. His once unsightly batting average (in the .250s just one post ago!) is now .271.
  23. imb
    I don't think he'll pass Sano on many lists, but he'll join Sano in a lot of top 5s. That's a cool comparison, actually Sano is 20, and is .230/.344/.533 with 10 HR and a 23/42 K/BB in 135 ABs at AA Baez is 20, is .252/.317/.591 (!!!!!) with 11 HR and a 11/41 K/BB in 115 ABs at AA Considering Baez position, at this point there's really no reason not to have him immediately behind Sano in the rankings.

    If he finishes with good numbers in AA, it would take a more than Gallo-esque K rate to keep him out of the top 10
