2015 Minor League Thread

[Real Deal]

Too many players doing good right now plus our mix of talent in the bigs. Maybe some of these guys will be traded.

LF, 2B, C, SS, 3B seems like the positions to be locked for present and future.

3 years from now we'll see Zimmer OF, Frazier OF, Bradley 1B, Nellie DH.

Curious to see who's really in and out.

Frazier with another RBI hit, dude is absolutely raking right now.

Not a repeated post. I repeat, not a repeated post. He just hit another RBI 2B.

Bradley Zimmer just hit AA HR #4...2-2 with a BB so far tonight.

They may not only have bats that hit well down there, but some of these guys have some ceiling to them.

It's what we really didn't see for so long out of this organization.

Of course not all of them will pan out, of course all of them have some issues, but some of these guys can really really play.

Bobby Bradley has RBI #69 tonight.

Crazy thing is, a lot of people like our SP prospects more than our position player prospects...they have really done a good job rebuilding their farm these last few years. Was one of the worst in the majors 4-5 years ago.

They started drafting guys with ceiling and trust that their player development system will develop them, which they hadn't done in the past. They also basically hired the entire Baseball America and Baseball Prospectus staff's over the years for various roles in scouting, analytics and probably scouting analytics. Those guys come pretty well connected within amateur baseball and have vast experience when they're putting their lists together.... I think we're seeing the fruits of those efforts now.

That Lynchburg lineup can mash.

Said this on April 9th.

As of today, they have a TEAM OPS of .765.

60 points higher than the second best team in the CLeague.

I knew they could mash, I didn't think it would be THAT good.

Triston McKenzie in his 2nd pro start: 2 IP, 1 H, 1 ER, 4 K, 1 BB, 1 wild pitch (which cost him the ER).

Bobby Bradley has RBI #69 tonight.

Nice.

 

[BimboColesHair]

Bradley Zimmer just hit #5 in AA. 4th in 7 games.

 

[BimboColesHair]

Aaaaaaaaaaand Zimmer just hit #6...

 

[MirORich]

Do any of these four on offense(Zimmer, Bradley, Frazier, NRod) project as May/June 2016 call ups like Lindor and Gio were this year? Or all these all 2017 guys at earliest?
