Pretty bad route by the CF, no? That’s the territory with the minors (also bad fields leading to IF hits). Take the good contact and know that BABIP is higher in the minors for all hitters.

I really doubt it. Like you said they didn't really do it at all last year except with Santana (who got about twice as much runway). Plus in the Athletic this AM Sharma made it sound like the org was unconcerned, echoing the "we like to see guys go through a little failure" talking points from back when the core was developing. I think between the DH and regular rest days they can make all four guys work, and it'll be one of the non-specials that gets edged out. Then maybe Canario getting an aggressive bump up when Roederer is ready? Is it that aggressive to promote Canario when he’s already at 249 PA at high-A and is on the 40-man?

Triantos also had 3 hits (and a walk) in game one. PCA, Triantos and Alcántara all starting game 2 too. Piñango (high-A) and Morel/Velázquez (AA) hit a homers so far
Absolutely. He now has about a month of success at an age appropriate level plus the pedigree (went into his draft year as a potential 1.1 pick) and tools. Honestly a bit more of this and we’re talking top 50-75 prospect.
