A couple of observations. Meneses probably doesn't qualify as a true prospect, but he's just ripping it in Carolina so I'm guessing he'll be in the Central Time Zone soon. He was off to a great start in Rome two years ago until he injured his wrist. That appears--along with the tougher competition--to have set him back. He's an older player at 24, but who knows. Too bad he can't play the OF (or not sufficiently well that the Braves didn't move him).

Not only first HR of the season for Didder, but first career HR. Man, he strikes out a lot for a guy with limited power.
