I'm surprised Chisenhall got promoted. Don't think he got a hit in his debut though.
edit: never mind! must have gotten one in his last AB, he got a 2 bagger.
I think they're trying to work him up fast to get to the bigs maybe as soon as next year. Kind of like Beckham on Chicago. They see talent, and a possible impact at an early age.I'm surprised Chisenhall got promoted. Don't think he got a hit in his debut though.

Yes. I can now answer my own question. It's possible he will be in the playoffs for most of September. I think the Indians want him to have that playoff experience with Akron.I'm not 100% positive but I think Shapiro said he will not come up when he was talking in the broadcaster booth with Manning and Underwood

CM, since you seem to know a bunch about most of the prospects in the system I had a a couple questions for you.
I was wondering if you see Santana at AAA or higher next year or does he stay with Akron another season or does he split the season between AA and AAA?
I know a little about Chisenhall, not much though, his approach at the plate seems pretty decent for a player his age, which reflects in his stats. As a player how do you see him projecting in the future at the higher levels and do you see him staying at Akron or moving straight to AAA next season or a possible split between the 2 levels?

That was responding to Santana possibly getting called up.Highly doubt they think they can get Chisenhall up here next season, but I'm not going to pretend I can predict the development tracks these young players take. Chisenhall is gonna be a stud.
