I just think its silly to drop him so much for 2.5 months of mostly mediocre play. He still dominated a pitching dominated league as one of the youngest kids at the level. Sometimes prospects go through rough stretches in the development process. I still believe Javy has the highest upside in the organization especially when you consider position. Yes his floor is much lower than Bryants, but not low enough to boot him below a player like Alcantara. He should be number 2.
good stuff. I also enjoyed when the NY Times published an article 3 days before 2010 FA saying "Lebron to the Bulls is a done deal" Meaning, that's great to hear but I'll believe it when Melo is holding up a Bulls jersey at a presser.
How funny would the Spain-Australia match be if Spain loses today? An eliminated Spain would either destroy Australia in anger or just completely give up/play reserves and lose to complete their World Cup embarassment.
i'd rather see manny Amazing we could see a lineup in Iowa next week with Kris Bryant, Javier Baez, Arismendy Alcantara, Wellington Castillo and Manny Ramirez in it. Let's just move the home games to Wrigley for the time being
Gonna see Iowa next month, gonna own When is the last time Iowa has been the sexiest Cubs minor league affiliate? Usually it's the place where the Scott McClains of the world go to die.
UMFan deleted his post but my twitter says there is no news on Altidore yet. My watchESPN feed froze with the ticker saying "Altidore (hamstring) will play Sunday vs. Portugal" After checking twitter, the first thing i saw was "rumor has it Altidore will play sunday". I jumped the gun and posted it, then saw that the ticker said something about "Klinsman optimistic that Altidore (hamstring) will play Sunday vs. Portugal".
