And he hits a double to start the game.
A 1st pitch double for Pache to open the game.
That should help the ISO.
Pache now 2-2 with a double and a single.
Batting .307.
He should be promoted to AA soon. Stud.

I bet he does. He got caught stealing though....0-4 on stolen bases on the year after 32 stolen bases in Rome last year.
Very odd considering the 80 Fangraphs put on his speed this year. You'd think he'd have more attempts.
I'd like to see the improvement in walk rate continue, but if it does and he keeps hitting, I do think that he'll go up to AA. I was a little worried, but I don't think AA is "that" gunshy compared to the previous regimen. Just wants to see a little more than them.
Then if he does well in AA, and considering his profile I wouldn't be surprised if the "finally!" true breakout happens there, it truly becomes interesting what happens with the OF in the offseason. Really, while I'm not a big fan of him, that may make it make sense for you to sign Markakis for one more season.
Right now I'd say his ETA is late 2019-early 2020.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
Pache walked in his first AB tonight!!
I’d like to see an improvement in the hr rate!!!

Pache just hit a double.
He is getting very Acuna-ish.
He's on a roll lately, which is good. ^^
And really has been quite good outside of his first 6 games at the level. Just the walks, keep up the improved walk rate for a couple more weeks and let's see a promotion to AA.

Pache with another double to start this morning's game.
He is a machine.
If we somehow hit on Pache then sky is the limit for this team.

He'll be up to AA any day now, I'd bet. 19 years and 5 months. Buxton defensively with an improving body and power. His ISO has more than doubled since last year.
What's the point of rushing him after 30 games at High A?
It's the Braves way!
He just hit another single to left. 2-3 on the day.
Average at .306.
There really isn't one. Pache doesn't need to be moved up until later on this year if he proves he can hit this level consistently. Pache isn't going to factor in to the big club until mid-2019 at the earliest, so there is no reason to try to rush his development.
Acuna went from A+ to AAA last year, getting better at each stop.
Pache should be on a similar path, IMO. No reason to hold talent down.
Another hit. 3-4 now batting .312.
Pache with another hit. 3-4 on the day. Average at .312.
